Everton boss Sean Dyche admits he remains a big fan of Newcastle United defender Kieran Trippier.
Dyche worked with Trippier at Burnley.
Dyche said: "Kieran Trippier can land the ball anywhere on a football pitch. Honestly, he's got that much talent.
"I was actually doing him a disservice by saying 'no, I only want you to pass it ten yards'. When you have a team of players, how do you give them the best chance of them being successful?
"Every player wants to be successful, trust me. Of course you want to do it by playing amazing football like Man City do and that's fantastic but not many can. It's a tricky situation."
