Everton manager Sean Dyche wants his players to develop a physical and mental resilience so they are happy playing three times a week.<\/p>\n
The Toffees boss made just two changes for the comfortable 3-0 Carabao Cup victory over his former side Burnley \u2013 who made seven \u2013 to set up a quarter-final meeting with Fulham.<\/p>\n
Dyche\u2019s school of thought is if his side are playing more it means they are involved in more competitions for longer and that is the route to success.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s always tempting (to make changes),\u201d he said after goals from James Tarkowski, Amadou Onana and Ashley Young \u2013 his first for the club \u2013 saw off the Clarets without much fuss.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe challenge you have got is if you want to go and be really super-successful you will play a lot of football so I want the players to realise they can play three games a week, that they can have the mentality and take these games on.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe support systems have never been greater so I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a lot to ask players to play three in a week.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the end of the day I want the mentality to be \u2018I want to play every game\u2019. It\u2019s not finished but it\u2019s building.\u201d<\/p>\n
Momentum is also building after a fifth win in seven matches as Everton gave their late chairman Bill Kenwright the send-off he would have wanted.<\/p>\n
Goodison Park rose as one to mark his death last week at the age of 78 and the team ensured the occasion was marked in fitting fashion.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s work in progress but there is progress. When you start winning people start to believe a bit more,\u201d Dyche added.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the players are beginning to believe more and more. Five in seven is a good marker. The players deserve it, they are working very hard on the training pitch.\u201d<\/p>\n
Burnley boss Vincent Kompany insists his side are still trying to adapt to life at elite level despite blowing away the Championship last season to book an immediate return to the top flight.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have never mastered the art of feeling good after a defeat. The first half was good but mistakes cost us at this level,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou don\u2019t accept it, absolutely not. But you put it into context because it could make your head crazy.<\/p>\n
\u201cIs it a bad performance? No. The worrying thing would be if you didn\u2019t have belief in the squad but that\u2019s not the case. These are steps we have to make.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou go through such a huge gap between the Championship and Premier League. It is not an excuse but motivation to get better.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen you get promoted it is not supposed to be easy. You are on a journey. That is part of what we are experiencing now.\u201d<\/p>\n
