The Toffees sit just two points above the Premier League relegation zone, having only won two matches this season and gone five without victory.

Everton has failed to score in its four most recent outings, and will be desperate to put things right against fellow struggler Wolves on Thursday.

Dyche, whose contract expires at the end of this season, says he is working harder than he ever has before during his 13-year managerial career to get his side back on track.

"Sometimes me, my staff and the players haven't delivered as well as we could do," he said. "But we work tirelessly. 

"This is the most work I've done in all my years in management, at this club, without a shadow of a doubt.

"I'm more than ready for the challenge. It could be easier because, for sure, I've made errors this season, the team has made errors, they are there for all to see.

"It's a fact of life as a manager, you have to get the margins right, and we haven't done so far this season. You've got to win games, and we haven't won enough games.

"We've got ourselves in a position where we feel we should be doing better - myself included - and now it is about taking on the challenge. I'm still trying to crack the code, as others have done before me."
