Burnley boss Dyche: Allan Saint-Maximin? He was a handful, well done him

Burnley boss Sean Dyche admits Allan Saint-Maximin was the difference for Newcastle United's win on Saturday.

Saint-Maximin scored and assisted to set up a 3-1 win.

Dyche said, "Allan Saint-Maximin? He was a handful, well done him. I'm really pleased for him.

"On a night like tonight Nick Pope should just put his foot through it, he knows that but he's a top keeper.

"We have still got four important players missing, we have a few days off now and then we will work very hard. When everyone is fit we have got a good group. It looks different when they are all back."
