Everton legend Seamus Coleman believes there is more to Sean Dyche than old school methods.
The right-back, who is in the twilight of his career, admits to learning a lot from Dyche since he took over from Frank Lampard.
The ex-Burnley coach is often criticized for being a “dinosaur" compared to modern managers.
“Listen there has been much more to it than that," he told evertonfc.com.
“I think with all respect to the manager, you don't manage in the Premier League as much as he has by making lads wear shin pads in training.
“He seems a very clever man and seems to be on a lot of things and we have got to do our part, and I'm sure if we are all pulling in the one direction we will be stronger.
“If we are not then I am sure he will make his mind up on players as well. So, we just need to do all we can for Everton Football Club and just keep fighting."
