Gary Neville says that he thinks Sean Dyche’s comments about Everton in midweek were ‘on the edge of disrespectful’.
The Blues are fighting to avoid relegation from the Premier League, and were handed a welcome boost following the weekend’s results. Frank Lampard’s side got all three points with a 1-0 win over Manchester United on Saturday. Then on Sunday, Burnley suffered a 1-0 defeat to fellow relegation rivals Norwich City at Carrow Road. These results leave Everton four points clear of the bottom three with a game in hand and eight matches left to play.
Earlier in the week, Everton lost 3-2 to Burnley which did leave them just a single point above the drop zone. In his post-match comments, Dyche aimed a dig at Everton and his thoughts on their ability to see out matches.
