2023/24 Sean Dyche

[kenada_blue]

 

[Paul E]

Worst winless run for the club in 30 years and people are pointing at statistics to defend his archaic football. I use my eyes and have been for 35 years going the match rather than BS xG stats.

Lump it forward. Hope for the best. Get it wide and lump it in. Hope for the best.

Stick with players not playing well or out of form.

Play full backs who barely cross the halfway line.

Only make subs when forced into it.

Our first goal from open play in 11 games - obviously it was a cross though.

Square pegs in round holes - Godfrey at RB with two RBs on the bench. Put James Garner on the wing rather than giving Dobbin a chance to run at defenders.

No win in 2023 - it's March.

He's killing the crowd with his boring football.

Dyche Walker.

How many shots in those games were hit straight at keepers.

My memory is maybe a bit off now on the other games, but it feels like a LOT

This is almost certainly based on saves made. Presumably, the quality of the attempts is a factor here.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Dyche says players looking around at each other for someone else to score

First thing he's said in a long time that is totally correct.

No one wants to take responsibility.

That includes himself, to be fair.

 

[PhilM]

Agreed

Why is he persisting with certain players if he believes they are looking around for others to do the job.

I personally think his extremely negative style and turgid style is a big part of the reason why we have no attacking composure. There is so much else on their minds other than the key thing - scoring goals.

This rigidity is nauseating. I get it to some extent - our squad ain’t great - however his insistence on playing the likes of Harrison is bizarre.

His performance was turgid at best, with McNeil not much better. Yet, we keep on doing the same things over and over and over.

 

[Daytripper]

Hes lucky the club are in such a mess that him getting the sack is right back in the agenda.
Worst thing is, if we get relegated the pundits will say hes the perfect manager to bring us back up.

Joe Thomas of the Echo aka Greg O Keefe the second , already has a first draft article prepared

Harrison is the worst of a very poor bunch in attack

Mate, we could not win again this season and some would be furious even at the suggestion that coaching, tactics and management had anything to do with it. There are some posters on here that are so "all in" on Dyche that no combination of results will convince them that he is not infallible, it's really, really weird.

Exactly…. I expect we make the keepers look good

 

[Parker]

He'll keep us up.

I won't enjoy 99% of it.

But he'll keep us up.

Next year is the issue, the promoted class next year will be well better than this year.

 

[Nymzee]

He's a coward tbh

Bloody hell, gone back in time.

Still 3 teams who won at Goodison...and the man of the match/best player on the park was the opposition keeper
