Burnley boss Dyche selects all British XI for first time in Premier League since...

Burnley boss Sean Dyche pulled off a rare Premier League feat at Tottenham on Saturday.

Each of Burnley's starting eleven was born in the British isles - something that has not occurred in Premier League football since the closing game of the 2010-2011 season.

That team in question was Blackpool, who fielded a side entirely made up of British-born players against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

"We are not necessarily a young group, but we're quite an inexperienced group as regards regular Premier League football.

"We've got a group who've maybe had a season in it, but it would be nice to have a few more who've been around it a long time," Dyche said.
