Burnley boss Dyche backing Ings to rediscover scoring form

Burnley boss Sean Dyche admits he needs Danny Ings to rediscover his scoring touch.

Having set a new club record of 655 minutes without a goal in October, Burnley's latest barren run has now entered its eighth hour.

"It's not just Danny, the team have to stand up," said Dyche. "He's certainly trying and that's one of the key components, showing that willingness.

"It's not a situation where you can just rely on one player. Of course he has scored goals this season and we know he has got goals in him. But that has to be reinforced with the team and how the team have the clarity to take chances well. It can't just be on one person.

"There is a moment of truth when someone has to take that chance. We have created chances lately with quality. It's got better over the course of the season, but we haven't taken them."
