2024/25 Sean Dyche - Sacked

Not open for further replies.

Last thoughts on Dyche since this thread is finally going this week.

I'm gonna be fair and give credit where its due. He did a brilliant job in 22-23 and preformed a minor miracle keeping us up. Seriously that was the year, I truly thought we'd had it. He deserves his credit for his part in effectively dragging us over the line because we showed absolutely nothing to suggest we where capable of that before his arrival. Last year was mostly garbage but again he did what he'd been brought in for and kept us up (while winning a derby in the process) and kept the lights on under the most outrageous circumstances possible against the corruption of the PL. Truthfully we'd never have even been in a relegation battle last year if we'd not had eight points unjustly stolen from us.

Then we get to this year, his stubborn and frankly selfish refusal to alter (even slightly) his obviously broken plans and style was killing us. If we'd have stayed up this season then it would've been in 17th and more to do with the fact that Southampton, Ipswich and Leicester are a shambles. Even then I could forgive him, because fair enough, he's just managing the way he's always known. No what makes his last season here utterly unforgivable is his cowardly throwing in the towel. Completely unprofessional and should be a black mark for the rest of his career. He's ruined his own chances of going elsewhere because of it. I truly believe that if he'd shown just a tiny bit more flexibility this season we'd have been five or six points better off when he was sacked. He'd probably have seen his contract out and could've gone on his way while having first pick of a whole host of championship clubs for next year along with an improved reputation.

I'm greatful he didn't because this run we're on now would never have happened under him. Moyes is a thousand times the manager that Dyche could ever dream of being. I'd like to wish Dyche well, cos like I said, I really do give him credit for 22-23 and 23-24 but his behaviour this year and the manner that he exited the club has left such a sour taste that I can't wish him anything other then professional misfortune.

He didn't do a brilliant job and performed no miracles. Was lucky to stay alive in 2022/23, did a bit more than the bare minimum in 2023/24, and absolutely crapped out this season. All this while being massively overpaid, serving antifootball, sucking the life out of the players and fans and using his own snot as a scalp moisturizer.

The snot done it for me tbh, there's a strong case him and Jogi Low could jointly take the reins at a perverse scratch and sniff bar in some dirty back street dungeon in Amsterdam

Be sensible ffs. We where adrift in the bottom three around Feb, two points adrift of safty. We had nothing upfront. Lampard had no idea what he was doing. No decent manager (including Moyes) wanted to touch us. For all Dyche's faults he came in with a plan and executed it. We went into the last day with our fate on our own hands and stayed up. He absolutely deserves credit for that.

Last season we'd never have even been in a relegation scrap if the PL wasn't a corrupt joke. He did want was asked of him in one of the darkest times in the clubs history. Just because you dislike the guy that doesn't make it right to rewrite history.

He didn’t have to be five or six points better off at the time he threw his hand in, the owners were prepared to let him carry on even in the state we were, so Moyes got the job because Dyche packed it in. I’ll still give Dyche credit for helping to keep us up in those previous two seasons and I’ll always be grateful to him for that.

Absolutely untrue.
We were absolutely heading for relegation when he took over from FL, I thought he did terribly well to keep us in the division.
Season 2023/2024 even more so, no money to spend a paper thin squad, all the turmoil around the club, 2 different points deductions, I still can't believe we stayed up as comfortably as we did.

Sean 2024/2025 he just seemed to completely lose the plot, he had to go.
 
Honest enough to even admit at the end that the players weren’t responding to him any more. Many managers would have easily just carried on. This bloke who apparently has a massive ego (which football manager doesn’t?) basically resigns for the good of the club.

If you’d said to me in Jan 23 that in Feb 25 we’d be a PL team, point deductions behind us, PSR restrictions behind us, we turned a profit in the period, we’ve got new owners, and going into the new stadium as a PL team with David Moyes at the helm. I’d have sold any non essential organ for that and maybe a few essential ones too.

Sean Dyche made that happen when we were in our absolute darkest moment and the championship, administration, leading of stadium, fire sale of assets, further points deductions, possible insolvency beckoned. He could coil one out on the Dixie Dean statue for all I care after Bournemouth and then the points deductions, he literally saved the club regardless of what you might think of him as a bloke, anything after that moment is largely irrelevant to me in the bigger scheme of Everton.

That's exactly what you are doing though. When he first came in he had near half a season to get us safe and comfortable yet we were 20 mins away from being relegated on the last day of the season. Sorry but for a guy on CL level wages with his previous experience I expect better than that at this level of the game. People on this website love banging on about the points deduction, that will be the same points deduction that Dyche himself called "Noise" and he wasn't interested in the slightest, only started bothering him when we went on a massive winless streak. Yet that same points deduction amounted to 8 points which was less than the 12 points Dyche threw away at the start of this season. He is just a highly limited individual at the end of the day who should never have been put in the position in the first place and its meant we have kicked the can even further down the road. He did what he had to do but he is no miracle worker like some on here make out imo.

Should also be restated before the thread is closed that the majority of those yes votes (myself included) commented that the respect was for the first 2 seasons and most made it clear that this season was absolutely shocking and he had to be sacked.

Sorry mate, apparently you cant feel like that.

If you think Dyche did a poor job this season and wanted him sacked, that means you’ve never given him any credit or thanks ever.

Going into the last day of the season in 22-23 with our fate in our own hands was way more then any of us could've hoped for back in Jan that year. It really was the season where I'd lost hope. We had nothing upfront for hudge chunks of the season and even on that last day. He deserves his share of the credit for making that happen.

And facts are facts. The eight point deduction was demoralising and deeply effected the club for hudge chunk of last season. Its disenguous to pretend that an unjust deduction like isn't going to have a negative effect. It was "noise" in the wider sesne of things because the club was facing the very real threat of administration. All most people wanted from last season was a season without a relegation dogfight. The reality is that we'd have achived comfortably without the deduction. I wouldn't consider last season to be a miracle but it was still a job well done.

I dont Know how I've ended up defining this clown considering that I really don't have any respect for him based on his conduct this season and the fact that I never wanted him here to begin with but like I said, facts are facts.
 
I am just glad he has gone. Not a very good manager and not likeable at all. With the points deduction I suppose he did OK with the help of 4 wins in one week or so that was preceded with no win in 4 months. He could set up low blocks very well and that was basically his mindset........don't lose but that didn't work. Probably more happy with a 0-0 that a 2-1 win because clean sheets was his aim at all times. Poor manager
