Everton manager, Sean Dyche has refused to underestimate Chelsea ahead of his side’s game with the Blues on Sunday.

Dyche was at Old Trafford to watch Chelsea take on Manchester United on Wednesday night.

The game ended 2-1 to the hosts, with Chelsea struggling to keep up with Erik ten Hag’s side for most of the evening.

Meanwhile, Everton played against Newcastle a day after Chelsea, and registered an impressive 3-0 win against the Magpies, but despite the contrasting results, Dyche has insisted that Chelsea are still a threat to come up against.

“I think they are a very strong outfit. I know they’ve been a bit up and down, new manager finding his group,” Dyche said, as quoted by talkSPORT.

“I was at Old Trafford. They’ve still got quality, still got pace, still got a depth of experience in football…

“They might have some inexperience in the Premier League, but they’ve also got some experience in other leagues. They’ve got players who’ve been bought in for a lot of money, and usually there’s a reason why that is.

“I saw them and I think they’re still a good outfit, so we’ve got to be ready without a doubt… I saw them at Old Trafford and they regathered themselves after a quiet first-half. They regathered themselves second-half and looked like an outfit.”
