Everton boss Dyche frustrated: Players must be willing to get hurt to score

Everton boss Sean Dyche admits his players need to change their attitude in front of goal.

After defeat at Manchester United, Everton will spend time away in Europe as they do not play again in three weeks.

Dyche said: "We want to remind the players of the good side of these performances while putting that demand on the next part of it.

"So, what is it that changes this situation? What is it that occurs when we take responsibility? That's where we're trying to get to. That will certainly be part of the demand of these next three weeks.

"We're all together, make no mistake about that. I lead it. I've got no problem with that. We've got to stay with the consistency of what we're doing while adding... the only way I can describe it is the will and demand to get hurt to score a goal, where it means that much that you will score a goal.

"When you get tight then, of course, a bit of that freedom can go, but we're the only ones who can change it."
