SOUNDBITE (English) Sean Dyche, Burnley manager:

"I think it just adds to the belief system. It's well documented our home form, certainly in the Championship over the last couple of years and going into the Premier League, not so easy of course. We enjoy playing at home, we think it's awkward for teams to come there. Away from home, of course, everyone in the Premier League - all of the managers I spoke to before we came in, all of the managers I speak to now, talk about how important your home form is. But also, how important you can get results away, and when you do, how much it means. Of course we're delighted never more so than going to a place like Stoke. We had to give everything to get that win. They were excellent second half and never stop coming. So credit to our players, the framework, the energy and the belief in the team to make sure that we took the win."

SOUNDBITE (English) Sean Dyche, Burnley manager:

"But one so far, is acceptable in the sense that we have gone up to a much, much tougher division. The demands are quite obvious in the Premier League. So there has always been positives to take from the situations but also there are realities and we had to make sure that performances turn into wins. Now we've done that for two games. It has to continue. We have to find ways of winning, however them wins come. Hopefully playing good football to achieve it and if not, digging in and doing what we have to do."

SOUNDBITE (English) Sean Dyche, Burnley manager (on Aston Villa):

"You know, I think their side is a young side, maturing. It has done over the last couple of years. Make no mistake, they're a good side. I was down there Monday (for Aston Villa's 1-1 draw with Southampton) and they're giving everything, that's for sure. They're certainly working hard enough and probably like ourselves at time, trying to find that extra bit of quality, that moment of clarity to score a goal to win a game. But, they've experienced it enough over the last couple of years at the right times in order to do that. For sure, as ever, another challenge awaits us and we look forward to it."
