Burnley boss Sean Dyche insists he believes in his players.

The Clarets go to Manchester City on Saturday.

Dyche said, "They're a top side, they have a top manager and a top group of players. They've moulded a very good unit by spending money effectively and bringing in some top talent.

"We have beaten them before and drawn against them, statistically and analytically it will always be tough but these things do happen.

"I believe in this team, I'm proud of them and they accept feedback and know they can do better. They're wise enough to know that you have to work to change things. The motivation is clear and they understand the challenges of the league and what is expected of them."
