Charismatic football manager Sean Dyche has hosted what may go down as one of the greatest Premier League press conferences in history after the Burnley boss went a bit off the rails in his conversation with the press on Wednesday afternoon.
The greatest #PremierLeague press conference of all time! 😂

Dyche produced what can only be described as a memorable press conference after he began discussing lookalikes in what he described as a ‘raising the bar‘ presser.
It all kicked off when a reporter said to him ‘has anyone ever told you, you look just like Mick Hucknall?’ to which the Burnley boss said that he’d also been compared to radio DJ Chris Evans also.
Dyche went on to say that he preferred press conferences with more interesting subject matter and described them as ‘less boring, lockdown is really hard for everyone, so we should just have a natter and show a bit of humanity in the world’.
The conference got a huge reaction on social media with one person describing it as: ‘If Monty Python did press conferences… Brilliant from Sean Dyche.’
