Arsenal manager Arteta: Dyche deserves huge credit for Burnley work

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has praised Sean Dyche for his work at Burnley.

The Englishman has signed a new four-year contract with the Clarets.

Asked if Dyche deserved the new deal ahead of the two clubs meeting on Saturday, Arteta said: "I think he deserves huge credit.

"With the resources he has, the way he has established the club in the Premier League and how he has done it over the years - and he has stuck to his beliefs and done it his own way and created a unique identity on the club, which is something that is very difficult to do in this league, so credit to him and congratulations."
