Dyche pleased with Burnley's goalscoring form

Burnley manager Sean Dyche has been pleased with the variety in the goals they have scored this season.

They had 37 goals to replace from the last two seasons with Danny Ings leaving the club to go to Liverpool, while summer signing Jelle Vossen left the club to return to Belgium barely two months after joining from Genk.

Following Saturday's 3-1 win over Sheffield Wednesday at Turf Moor, they are are up to fifth in the Championship table.

They have scored nine goals with six different goalscorers on the scoresheet this season.

So far defender Michael Keane has netted the most times with three, ahead of veteran midfielder Matt Taylor who has two. After that follow Andre Gray, David Jones, Ben Mee and Sam Vokes who have netted once each.

Dyche pleased with Burnley variety

Dyche told the Burnley Express that he was pleased that Burnley had been scoring from set-pieces, from open play and from good technical play.

He described the strikers' goals as the "bread and butter" and continued to say that while support needs to be behind them, he feels Burnley have that this season.

He also said the "framework and the energy" of the team had been good so far this season. He has high expectations for his side to perform at their top capabilities at all times.

Clarets eye automatic promotion

It took Burnley four games to win their first game but since then they have recorded three consecutive victories. At the weekend they managed to win with late goals from Taylor and Gray after Atdhe Nuhiu had levelled for Sheffield Wednesday.

With the three wins under their belt, the Clarets will be looking to push on towards the automatic promotion places. Tonight they have another winnable game in MK Dons at home, before facing two testing games at the end of September with promotion-chasing Derby County away and Reading at home.

Tonight could see them move into the top two should they win, Hull City beat Cardiff City and both Middlesbrough and Birmingham fail to win their games.
