Dyche: Burnley not safe yet

Sean Dyche called Burnley's victory over Bristol City their best this season but warned safety is not yet secured.

The home side came from behind to win 3-1 at Turf Moor, though it took a Lee Grant penalty save to keep them in front at 2-1.

Burnley now sit seven points clear of the relegation places with five games to play, but Dyche said: "The madness of the Championship this season means that no-one can sit back and relax."

On the game he said: "That was as dominant a display as I have seen from us this season. We had 25 efforts on goal and I very much enjoyed our performance.

"We played with good ingenuity, organisation and freedom and even when we found ourselves behind at half-time we stayed calm.

"We always knew we could win the match. We made good use of the ball and managed the game well.

"All in all it was a very pleasing day for me, the team and the fans that backed us again and helped galvanise us as a group.

"Lee Grant made a fantastic penalty save but their goalkeeper made some top drawer saves too. After the penalty we went and scored again and that was a great way to respond."
