Their run of four wins and three draws including a 2-2 thriller at Manchester United is the clubs best in the top flight since 1975. The only team on a better run is Ole Gunnar Solskjaers Red Devils.Dyche joined talkSPORT on Thursday live from Portugal to discuss his teams return to form, and he is thankful for the timing ahead of their clash against title-chasing Tottenham.Speaking on the Sports Breakfast, the manager said: The game against Everton was a really tough result, it wasnt like us. I spoke with the group and these lads have been fantastic over a long period and I never question their will and desire, but we werent just playing with that edge, and we have to play with that.We have to. Were not good enough to roll around the Premier League just picking up wins when we feel like it, were not good enough for that. We have to play with that edge and we have to be on our game all the times.The players deserve a massive amount of credit. They have taken ownership, theyve got their heads down, pulled together as a group and weve actually played well. That edge and the belief had come back into the side.Weve got a tough one next week against Tottenham, who were fantastic last night [in their 3-0 Champions League win over Borussia Dortmund].2

Theyre a good team, I like Mauricio Pochettino and everything they do, but in the form were in at the moment were back to being that really hardy side, and teams find it really awkward and really difficult to play against us.So weve got to continue that form.Listen back to Sean Dyche on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast IN FULL above
