Sean Dyche praises Andre Gray after Burnley double

Sean Dyche insists Andre Gray and Burnley are a match made in heaven after the striker's double fired the hosts to a 2-0 win and sent Bolton to the foot of the table.

Following a scoreless first half striker Gray struck twice after the interval for his first double in Burnley colours.

He now has four goals in six appearances since arriving at Turf Moor from Brentford for a rumoured club record fee of £6m, and Dyche believes the striker is worth every penny.

"We're enjoying Andre and I think he's enjoying being here," the Burnley boss said.

"People forget he's young, he's learning and he's adapting. There's still a lot he can pick up, but there's a rawness and a desire to score goals and that's a fantastic thing.

"There's no fear in him and that's a golden thing for strikers.

"He's getting a connection with (Sam) Vokes and I think that's always good to see two strikers linking up and I think there's a good feel about the group.

"I think overall we fully deserved the win. I think the first half an hour they were very good.

"The last 15/20 of the half we were strong, and although they have some good players they didn't really have any chances.

"Second half we started nice and brightly and as I said, overall we created enough and took enough to win the game.

"We're realistic about the division, we know it's a tough division and as much as we enjoy winning, we've got to be realistic and know that there's another big game coming and that's on Tuesday.

"It's way too early to be talking about promotion. We've all seen the ups and downs of the league and how it changes. Our main focus is on the next game, it's simple as that."

While Burnley climbed one place to ninth, Bolton are now rooted to the bottom of the Championship - but Trotters manager Neil Lennon is not hitting the panic button any time soon.

"The difference was the £7m player, he scored the two goals and that's won the game and I can't criticise the players," Lennon said.

"I know we're bottom of the league and it's a huge challenge. I don't like being there because it's something I'm not used to, but I accept that.

"There's a lot of positives we can take from our performance today. (Jose Manuel) Casado was excellent and we created good chances and should've taken them and that would've changed the psychology of the game.

"I think there was maybe just that lack of composure and that lack of quality at times. I didn't think we looked like a team who were bottom of the league today and I didn't think there was a huge gap between the teams.

"We've got two home games coming up - win them and the whole atmosphere and landscape changes again and that's what we'll try to do."
