(Reuters) - Everton's new boss Sean Dyche said he may not have got the job in the best of times but promised to give his all as the Premier League club looks to avoid relegation from the top flight for a first time in 72 years.
Former Burnley boss Dyche was named Everton manager on Monday after the Merseyside club sacked Frank Lampard following a 10-match winless run that stretched back to October.
"If they deem my skill set to deliver it, I will deliver it. I had a long time playing, I'm a custodian of the football club, I'm not going to be here forever, I said it about Burnley. "Fine side, obviously people are talking about winning the title," said Dyche, who beat the north London team only once in 15 games with Burnley.
"You don't want to build on luck, you want good performances, pride, passion, then layer on tactical understanding."
