DAVID Jones made it a hat-trick of promotions to the Premier League when Burnley went up in 2014, and he is hungry for more.

And the midfielder believes the Clarets have the right ingredients to do it again, from the manager down to the players.

“I’ve learnt a lot from him and I’m still learning,” said Jones of Dyche.

“I’ve got a lot of experience now in the division – and of going up from this division. That’s valuable but in our team, there are a lot of players who got promoted last time.”

Newcomer Joey Barton has been there and done it too. And Jones believes he has been a valuable addition to the squad.

“He’s got lots of experience,” said the 31-year-old of his midfield partner.

“He’s come into the team and fitted in. I think we’ve both done well so it’s been enjoyable playing in there. I think everyone knows he’s a vocal presence. He’s offering good feedback to players and you need talkers on the pitch.

“At the start of the season, it was me and Scotty Arfield in the middle but he’s gone out to a wider role with Joey Barton coming in.

“I think I’ve now got a bit more freedom with Joey there alongside me. So I’ve grown into the season and started expressing myself and enjoying it.

“The main thing is being in a successful team, playing well and enjoying it. I’m doing all of those things at the moment.

“Now it’s about helping Burnley achieve what we all want to achieve this season. I think all the ingredients are there but we know how tough it is. There is still a long way to go. But we’ve got the experience so hopefully we’ll be up there.”
