Dyche not getting carried away over transfers

The 'Clarets' secured Europa League football by claiming a seventh-place finish and are now turning their attentions to the transfer market, having already bid farewell to Scott Arfield and Dean Marney.

However, speaking to 'Sky Sports News', the former Chesterfield defender insisted that he knows what sort of player he is looking for and will not let the club's recent success go to his head.

"Ideally you want players who are either showing signs to be hungry enough for the challenge to mature into us, the obvious ones such as James Tarkowski and Nick Pope," he explained.

"Or with players who have been there, seen it and done it slightly. When you think about people like Jack Cork coming into our side, he got an England cap this year.

"He played every single minute of our Premier League season, this season, you know we need that mixture of people who are hungry and thirsty are only going to get better and improve.

"Some of the players have been there, done it slightly and can actually know what it [Europe] is and what it offers. We are open minded about that.

"Weirdly, there is a reality to our market, it is very difficult, we are not powerful enough to just walk into every situation and make sure it happens but we think we can make sure enough happens."
