There is little flashiness about Sean Dyche like his Burnley team that enjoyed a Champions League spot for a while. Sean Dyche is a specialist in getting sides to punch above their weight in his career till date.

The seventh longest serving manager in England started off at Watford where he led the Hornets to their highest 11th place finish in four seasons in the Championship despite having two of his top scorers sold off. In 2012, he left for Burnley thereby replacing Eddie Howe.

After two seasons under his tutelage, he had the Clarets Premier League-bound. However, their spell in the top flight lasted only a single season as they were relegated with two games to spare in 2015. Sean Dyche wasn’t one to leave a sinking ship as he guided them back to the Premier League the very next year.

Despite relying on what is now considered an outdated 4-4-2 formation, Sean Dyche has delivered the goods this season as they look to cement their spot in the Europa League.
