I don’t like Dyche as a person, but I think this is a perfectly reasonable take. If he gets 48 points by May and finishes 12th, then he has more than exceeded expectations. Some people need to remember they Lampard Years. Going 1-0 down and still trying to ground out a 0-0

...Everton when the system set up needs those things he does well, if we do change tactics under a new manager then his inability to finish one on one will stand out even more. Put it into context Lukaku with the chances DCL had would be on about 7-8 goals by now and we'd be sat on around 15...

You’ve only just realised this, it’s been the case for some since Lukaku left because Koeman refused to buy a replacement meaning it was Dom, Rooney and a frozen out Niasse as our striking options

Good points, but a manger who’s here for 3/4/5yrs has to keep improving the team and play imo, irrelevant of money, Unless we sold our best player every summer and replaced them with an under 23 player. We’ve lost only Onana from Last season starting 11 and dyche wasn’t even plying him the last...

I just don't think he is a natural finisher at all. He's one of those footabllers that has gotten to this level through hard graft and exceptional physical qualities while being average at other aspects of football such as technical play. He's a forward by design in a way. If he was a natural...

...hasn’t occurred for ten years at Everton. Indeed getting over 49 points has only happened 4 seasons out the post Moyes years (2 of these with Lukaku and Koeman’s spending, one with Silva’s spending, one with Ancelotti’s spending). Now Dyche has to get it as a minimum despite turning a...

...right and then shoot quickly as the gk is moving his feet … when the gk is planted and facing straight at you it’s hard to get it past them. Lukaku and Henry have both said how they move the ball and then wait until the keeper shifts and as soon as one of his feet touches the ground they...

Usually it's difficult to relate to a player but if that's his perspective, I'm in solidarity, I also despise dyche's style of play 😂

What that on mate - his Patron? Must give it a listen.

He said he doesn’t see eye to eye with him and hates this style of play, he was a young lad joining us and really was a squad player till Lukaku left, then was trying to establish himself, but the club Weren’t so sure and bought forwards like Tosun. Then under Carlo he kicked on and then he was...

...and I accept that there is no point in keeping a player that would effectively be willing to force a move. We had no real chance in keeping Lukaku, for example. But look at the state of Lukaku's replacements; it will be exactly the same if we sell Branthwaite. I also agree with your...

Also, that 2003/04 season, we never actually lost more than 2 consecutive league games all season, until we lost the last 4 with the flip flops on.

...how much of the first season under Martinez was still preparatory work from Moyes to benefit from and how much Martinez contributed to that. Normally that season is enough to qualify for CL. Also big what if, when Moyes had Lukaku in his time here. He had good strikers, but not Lukaku level.

TBF, Rom should be sticking away pens anyhow.

Bainsy let Lukaku do the same in the semi final at Wembley v United, and Jagielka the captain never said a dicky bird both times!

...my point was more how quickly things fell back to mid table as finishing 11th twice with a higher wage bill in that period (considering what Lukaku and Barkley were on at that point) is generally more underachieving than Moyes having a poor season in his early years in the prem. In 2003 he'd...

...with top managers and top players. If Sean Dyche had taken over the 13/14 team and had us in 16th place with John Stones launching balls to Lukaku every game I certainly wouldn’t be backing him as a good thing for Everton. However he didn’t take us over then, he took us over when we were in...

Saha, yak and lukaku prob our best premier league strikers

Yakubu would have been the last decent striker we signed before rom … and before the yak? I can’t remember a decent one

All had flash in the pan seasons and then did very little. None where near the level of Lukaku who is the exception and not the norm for our strikers.
