Burnley manager Sean Dyche has stated that he is satisfied with the start his side have made to the Championship season.

The Clarets have taken eight points from five games and sit ninth in the table, five points behind leaders Brighton & Hove Albion.

Dyche has said that the club has coped well following their relegation from the Premier League last term.

"The good thing for us it's the early part of the season, we're re-morphing the team into something different," he told the Burnley Express.

"We've got new players, and the strikers haven't took fire yet. It's fair to say over a season they will, at some point, not necessarily fire as in millions of goals but they're going to score.

"It's great that they haven't and we've still got good points on the board."

Burnley face Sheffield Wednesday at Turf Moor on Saturday.
