Sean Dyche has admitted he made a damning statement about Everton's away form to his Burnley players at half time to help tip the balance in their favour.
The Blues dropped a 2-1 lead at half time in Wednesday evening's trip to Turf Moor to lose 3-2 in what was a crucial match in the battle for relegation. Goals from Nathan Collins, Jay Rodriguez and Maxwell Cornet were enough to win the day for the hosts who moved to within one point of Frank Lampard's side in the Premier League table.
And Dyche following the game admitted that he had highlighted Everton's dreadful away form to his side when they came into the interval behind in the match. The Blues have picked up just six points on their travels throughout 2021/22, with their last Premier League win away from Goodison Park coming at Brighton in August.
