A hugely frustrated Sean Dyche felt two Manchester City players should have been sent off and accused the Premier League champions of cheating as his Burnley team were battered 5-0 at the Etihad Stadium.
Goals from Sergio Aguero, Bernardo Silva, Fernandinho, Riyad Mahrez and Leroy Sane saw Pep Guardiola's side ease to victory on Saturday.

Dyche highlighted that incident as a key moment and was also unhappy with Moss' decision to only book Vincent Kompany for a high tackle on Aaron Lennon in the opening minute.
