​Stoke boss Pulis lauds Burnley counterpart Dyche

Burnley's Sean Dyche is in the top three Premier League managers of the year, says West Brom boss Tony Pulis.

"He's got promoted straight away with a club that had been relegated the year before," said Pulis.

"And they could end up in the top half of the Premier League with a small budget. He's done fantastic."

"I won't tell you who I put down as my winner but Sean was in my top three," added Pulis.

Pulis also believes British coaches like him, Dyche, Bournemouth's Eddie Howe and Crystal Palace's Sam Allardyce, do not get the credit they deserve in the Premier League.

"There's some very good British managers in the Premier League," said Pulis.

"I think people overlook them because there are new managers, fresh managers coming in."
