Burnley boss Sean Dyche was delighted with their 1-1 draw at Chelsea.
Matěj Vydra became the first player to score against Chelsea in open play this season with a 79th-minute goal that cancelled out Kai Havertz's headed opener.
“Very pleased with that, but very pleased with a few performances, I think if you look at Pope today, and I know Gareth's got a tough job, but he's a top keeper for me," said Dyche
“He's got to be in there for me and targeting the number one shirt. Charlie Taylor as well. I think Gareth should be keeping an eye on him with that performance, I thought he was outstanding, and he has been several times this season.
“I've told him (Pope) he's back to his best, and in training the way he is, he's a monster of a guy, but his reflexes are fantastic.
“The save in the first half was very similar to the one against Brentford last week down to his right, he's right back on it without a shadow of a doubt, and it helps enormously because he's a top, top keeper."
