Quotes

Roy Hodgson

"Well we have four games really like that, all of which come into that category [of real importance]. And of course, every away game is difficult.

"We know that Burnley are in good form, they have had a great run of success, and particularly at home, where they are doing very well.

"We have to be ready, like we were when we went to places like Leicester and Manchester City. A win is always possible, but to get it you have to do something exceptional.

"Every team causes you a different set of problems. Every team has its strengths and its way of playing and we make sure the players are under no illusions of what they are likely to face and what they need to do to try and get a result, and avoid the other team using their strengths to win the game."

Seasn Dyche

"We’re back to that mentality of we’ll take on anyone. One of our biggest weapons is that we’ve shown an ability to get big results against most sides in the division.

"That is the mindset that we want because every game in the Premier League is tough. Every team deserves to be there, every team fighting for different reasons, for a different kind of cause.

"Our cause is to keep it going because we’ve got it back now, we’ve got the confidence and the clarity to say that whoever is in front of us, ‘OK, we’re ready and we really want to take that team on’.

"I think that mood has come really strongly back in the team. We’ve got that relentlessness and that edge back."
