The Blues boss said much of his time at the club had been spent with Everton the subject of intense 'noise'
Sean Dyche said Everton did not need any new inspiration to foster a ‘siege mentality’ but stressed the importance of stopping that feeling from becoming embedded within his squad.
He was also keen to highlight his continued disappointment over the controversial refereeing decisions in last week’s Merseyside derby defeat, saying he had provided his opinions to Howard Webb, chief of the referees’ body. Asked whether a siege mentality had been fostered by the call by referee Craig Pawson to not send off Liverpool’s Ibrahima Konate with the derby goalless, and the claims Everton’s season could be undermined by a points deduction, Dyche joked: “I don’t think it needs much fostering. It’s kind of an ongoing thing.”
He did, however, insist it was important to continue to ensure Everton’s players did not become influenced by that outside ‘noise’. Crucial to this was winning games, he said, adding: “The players know there has been some varying ups and downs and noises around the club for various reasons.
