I don't think Breadders knows who Amos is Scott...

Copper Dragon wrote:The Juke has played quite well even though it is clear that he isn't a Premier League forward. He tries and opposing centre halves know that they're in a game when he's about.

He makes too many wrong decisions, like after he'd put a brilliant through ball for Ings' goal he gets away from his defender after good work and shoots from a tight angle instead of putting the ball across the box for Ings, which could have made it 2-1 to us.

Sordell hasn't had much time on the pitch but he did play fairly well away at Leicester when he came on. He's got the pace we need but I can't see him scoring many, if any at all.

Yee Haw

But you catch eyes with your mate and you can see him, and all the noise goes out the window and you're just focused and you walk through it. That's my job. I just see the end goal and that is winning games and being productive and affecting my team. All the rest of it, I just shut it out.

Dyche wrote:If you don't have the human side of what you do intact then I don't think the rest operates in the right manner. You've got to affect the person before you can affect their performance. Speaking to the player, building a rapport with them. It doesn't have to be best mates with them but it has to be respectful, both ways. If you get that, then you can lock in all the things, the habit-forming, the tactical understanding, the technical requirements, the physical requirements, because you've got a rapport of trust, of openness.

Dyche wrote:I could sit there and moan about what I haven't got and cry it in and make myself sick of it and make everyone else sick of it. Or I could go, 'Right then, that's what we are, what are we going to do about it?' We're going to get the players to play to the point that they bleed with belief in what they do. It's the way I've chosen to work. It doesn't guarantee you anything, but it hedges your bets. It pushes the percentages in your favour if you can find positive things to build upon and to re-frame and twist and turn, as long as they are reality-bound. 'Cos I don't do blind faith. There has to be reality.

Dyche wrote:"Some of the staff come to me and say, 'We're working hard, we're doing this and that', and I'm like, 'Yeah, but we need more'. This is a journey for everyone and we need more, 'cos we've got to win games. That's the job whatever way you look at it. There's no such thing as the end, you just keep going and going. I say that to the players all the time. Relentless. Relentless in your thinking, relentless in your habits, relentless in your mentality.
