WATCH: Burnley and Chelsea players brawl as Dyche says 'I didn't know'

Burnley boss Sean Dyche insists he's in the dark over the end of game brawl after their 2-2 draw at Chelsea.

Chelsea insist it was sparked by insults aimed at coaching staff.

But Dyche says: "I didn't know, I was off clapping our fans. We brought great numbers here. By the time I turned round there was something going off at the tunnel.

"We are allowed to win or get a point at these big clubs.

"I'd be interested to see the physical stats. If someone goes down with cramp, I've seen their players go down with cramp before.

"We're not blessed with the most technical players - they cost a lot of money. We have a resilience. You are allowed to defend it out - it's part of the game."
