Sean Dyche absolutely loves it when reporter suggests Burnley might be in ‘title fight’

Maybe this would be a way for the press to placate Nigel Pearson?
We're huge fans of Sean Dyche here at SportsJOE. The Burnley boss looks to be rare manager enjoying every minute of the heat of a relegation battle, and his considered response to Jose Mourinho's overblown outbursts following his side's draw at Stamford Bridge earlier this month moved him yet further up in our estimation. And Dyche had plenty of reasons to be in a good mood yesterday after Burnley's shock 1-0 victory over Manchester City lifted the Clarets to within a point of 17th-placed Sunderland, so it's no surprise he had this wonderful reaction when a reporter mistakenly used the word 'title' instead of 'relegation' while asking a question at the post-game press conference. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B747l5O8-PY Contrast that with Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson's increasingly frosty relationship with the media, one of whom he called a 'prick' following their scoreless draw against Hull. Let's just say we're all hoping for another season of Dyche in the top flight.Explore more on these topics:
