Sean Dyche: 'Andre Gray remains well-grounded'

Burnley boss Sean Dyche praises the attitude shown by club-record signing Andre Gray during the early stages of his Turf Moor career.

Sean Dyche has claimed that record-signing Andre Gray has "bought into the culture" at Burnley during his first month at the club.

The former Brentford striker joined in a deal thought to be worth around the £9m mark.

Despite the lofty price tag, and the pressure that ultimately comes with it, Dyche believes that Gray has gone the right way about things since joining at the end of August.

"He's in a place here where there's an earthiness and a humility about how we work and a groundedness," he is quoted as saying by the Lancashire Telegraph. "I think he's bought into the culture, the environment and the people who work here.

"It's not like he's bowling into a grandiose situation with everyone carrying on all the time. It's not like that. There's a high quality common sense approach to what we do here and how people operate.

"They do their jobs well and work very hard and enjoy it, no-one worries about the things that can get in the way - big moves and all that sort of stuff."

Gray, who is expected to start in this evening's meeting with Derby County, has two assists and one goal in the first three games for his new side.
