1 Pope. Just edges it but I’ve never seen a keeper win us so many points with remarkable saves.

Re: Dwight

Once he signed for Everton, I always thought he would do well at his next club. Everton is all wrong for him. There’s a player there, and he’s young enough still to prove it.

Still, I did think he had become stale here and a move was right for both parties, just not Everton (for him).

Re: Another Dyche Interview, this with Ben Foster (Fozcast)

I love Dyche. Best Burnley manager in my lifetime.

I think picking Defour as his best player to manage is an advert to other clubs that he can manage the cultured foreign player not just the ‘4-4-2 British player’. I thought he’d always said Trippier in the past.
