Dyche delighted to advance in the cup
Dyche made seven changes from the 1-0 win at home to Southampton on Saturday, but goals from Sam Vokes and Andre Gray's fourth in 18 days against the Black Cats, saw the Clarets home.
Burnley played some slick passing football throughout, and Dyche said: "I was really pleased. I don't think any game is completely comfortable, but I was pleased with the performance.

Speaking about the changes, he smiled: "It's the old twist in the tale. If you make changes and it doesn't work, you wouldn't be asking that question. Now it becomes important to give players minutes.
"Before the game, it becomes are you changing the team, with that weird edge of disrespect.
"I made it clear I wasn't. I believe in the players, we have some very good players, as a group, and tonight showed that.

"I enjoyed the performance, I enjoy most of our performances, it's finding a way to win, no matter how that way is.
"Against Southampton we had to really dig in and fight and play from our shape, work and make it uncomfortable, tonight we controlled the ball better, kept the ball better and won a game."
