Everton boss Sean Dyche felt they did what was needed for victory over Burnley.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin proved the matchwinner with the only goal of the day.

"The win plays its part in changing the recent storyline," said Dyche.

“I don't think it's been an accurate story with our performance levels - ironically we don't perform today as well as we have done.

“I spoke to the players about that, we deliberately made the game ugly. We got the ball forward and asked as many questions as possible to make sure we put some confidence in the game and to make sure we had that front-foot feeling. Overall, it got us the result.

“I was happy with the performance in that we designed it to be that way, there were passages that we gave the ball away too easily, quite obviously, but you have to find a way of winning. We have dominated games here, everyone knows that, they have seen it with the xG and all that, but we haven't found a way to win.

"So it is important we find a way to win - I am pleased with that side of things."
