​Burnley boss Dyche not looking at Premier League table

Burnley manager Sean Dyche is not taking a look at the Premier League table just yet.

The Clarets are flying high after back to back wins in the league.

It has put them above the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United in seventh place.

But given the close points proximity of teams in mid-table, Dyche knows that his side must continue to focus on each game at a time.

"We have been in this territory a couple of years ago but last year was a reminder of how difficult the Premier League is," said Dyche to reporters.

"I don't get carried away with it and I don't think my players get carried away with it.

"But it is there to be enjoyed because it is tough in the Premier League.

"It is great for our fans who came down here but we have a lot of work to do. It is the story of a season. I said that last year when things weren't going so well and we managed to finish strongly and I am still saying it now because I am not naive enough to think being where we are now is a given.

"It doesn't work like that, I wish it did. It would be handy if they blew the whistle now! I would take it."
