Sean Dyche upbeat over Burnley survival

Burnley boss Sean Dyche is optimistic that his side can avoid relegation from the Premier League if they manage to keep up their recent level of performances.

Burnley boss Sean Dyche is upbeat that if his side continue to perform well they will avoid relegation from the Premier League.

The Clarets put in a solid display to earn a point against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge as Ben Mee cancelled out Branislav Ivanovic's opener.

The performance from his side has given Dyche confidence that they can beat the drop in the top flight, despite recording just one win in their last 10 league games.

"I thought we delivered a very good performance at one of the hardest places to go in the country," Dyche told the Burnley Express. "It's just what it is, but we know the performance level, and we were very pleased with it.

"Once again we're showing signs of improved performances. It's about turning that into winning football now. If we keep putting in performances like that, it bodes well.

"There are no guarantees, and every game is a challenge. Swansea are a good side who are going well. They seem to have a nice feel about them, and Garry Monk has done a good job since taking over."

Dyche's side play Swansea City at Turf Moor later today.
