I didn't get that at all, just didn't blow smoke up him... Said 'there are other important players here, not just him.' which takes pressure off and tips the hat to other potential heroes. Also said he needs to get 'truly fit' which is something Dyche has said about every player under him at some point.1/ "It's easy to take the wheel of a ship in calm waters, but not so much when it's choppy waters...I've got to earn my spurs, because I know I'm a bit of a marmite manager anyway...but I'm willing to put the hard yards in."
Loves a mixed metaphor.
2/ Nowhere in that was the question put to him whether he can keep us up, and he didn't volunteer commenting on it either.
3/ Undercurrent there on Calvert-Lewin. I dont think he's that impressed...which would obviously represent a huge problem. Has he had a falling out with him already I wonder.
He said 'he's a very good player, no doubt about that.'
Think you're hearing what you want to hear bud
