On Sean Dyche

Sean Dyche has very much flown under the radar this season but I really think he is a potential star manager of the future. Burnley have looked well organized every time I've seen them play and this has been reflected in their results. They've only had two heavy defeats all season, 4-0 and 3-0 against West Brom and Arsenal respectively, surprising for a team which have just come up from the play-offs.

Burnley are in the relegation zone at the moment, but have by no means disgraced themselves this season. They are punching well above their weight against teams with far greater financial resources.

He also conducts himself very impressively in interviews. See below (half way down the page) where he calmly and rationally analyses some of the incidents from the recent Chelsea - Burnley game. He doesn't rise to Mourinho's bait, he doesn't try to influence referees, he speaks articulately and coherently. I am impressed and I have respect for him.

Contrast Dyche's performance here with Mourinho's shrill ranting and tell me who's more likable and who you have more respect for.

As an aside, I am completely fed up with Mourinho now, he's an attention seeker and I agree with Paul Parker that he doesn't try to protect his players at all but makes it all about himself. I've lost respect for him. I'm tired of him complaining all the time and I'm tired of Chelsea's dirty little tricks (e.g. surrounding the referee etc) they do every single game. I hope he gets fired from Chelsea because he's a cancer inside the body of English football. 

Back to Dyche, I hope Burnley stay up and I hope he gets a chance to establish himself as a top manager. From the evidence so far he deserves the opportunity to manage a big team.

Sean Dyche as the next England manager, anyone?
