    Difficult to shine in midfield, in a team that doesn't play through it's midfield.

    2023/24 Sean Dyche

    Agreed, but part of the issue currently, is that they have only one option ahead of them to pass to. We mostly have everyone but the striker behind the ball, so when anyone gets it they have no one to pass to, and end up launching it to the striker in the hope that he can hold it up and bring...

    2022/23 Sean Dyche

    Don't get me wrong, bar Pickford and possibly DCL none of the players should be anywhere near Everton as none of them are up to standard. I'd struggle to name 10 good signings at Everton since we signed Lineker, that's how far back the mismanagement and poor recruitment goes. But having said...

    The argument is based on last night's game though and Leicester are in a lot worse a state than we are currently, despite the players they have. In the second half last night, proactive changes could have gained us an extra 2 points which may well have led us to safety.

    2022/23 Sean Dyche

    I don't hide that I don't rate Dyche as a manager at all and nothing he has done since he came in has changed my mind. He had the new manager bounce and then wasted the best chances of points with strange selections. Last night we had the lowest ranked of our remaining games and he either...

    But Leicester are the lowest ranked and arguably weakest of all the games we had left. It was the most winnable game of the those remaining, and they were there for the taking. A win would have leapfrogged us above 3 other teams at the bottom. IMO a better manager makes changes to try and win...

    There is no guarantee it'll pay off granted, but the reward is an extra 2 points and going above 3 other teams in the table. He can't play for draws every week which it very much sounds like he is from his interviews. He has to be brave himself and trust he can make changes which positively...

    2022/23 Alex Iwobi

    He gives the ball away too often, making mistakes in dangerous areas, but also his crossing and passes in to the box are shockingly bad. He rarely if ever picks anyone out, and if it does go anywhere near anyone it's more often than not hip height.

    2022/23 Sean Dyche

    Do you think he could have improved on that though by making changes in the second half? Iwobi, Dacoure even McNeil and DCL all looked goosed towards the end and because we didn't really retain possession well, it was a very open game. I personally felt that if he had introduced Gray and Onana...

    Burnley? They sold most of the rubbish that Dyche had brought in, brought in an up and coming manager in Kompany and are doing pretty well. Their financial situation was dire as well. Everton need to bin Dyche cos he's shown he can't manage a game or spot when things need changing, bin as...

    This is what he said when asked about Rangers. I'd argue he'd have taken any Premier League job that came up, and would have taken the Rangers job if offered as well.

    2022/23 Sean Dyche

    He was out of work, he's been after any job, he's touched lucky with ours. Everton now realising that a manager like Dyche will make Southampton a better prospect for players. Suddenly Everton's targets are all journeymen.

    Just curious who hasn't turned out to be crap?

    2022/23 Sean Dyche

    Exactly this, he's used to being at the bottom, used to having a team that doesn't score goals as well. The most short sighted appointment the board could have made. What do any of them get paid for? Joke of a club.

    2022/23 Kevin Thelwell

    Surely major questions need to be asked of his role now. He either has input or he doesn't and if he doesn't then what's the point of his role? If he does, then wtf is he doing, get rid.

    2022/23 Frank Lampard

    What about the coaching cv’s of his backroom team? You can’t argue they don’t have the coaching cv to coach at Everton. Lampard is the manager, inexperienced for sure, but he’s surrounded himself with good people. The improvements are happening, it’ll just take time.

    2022/23 Frank Lampard

    By all accounts Onana has signed for us over Moyes because of that same media profile. I realise it’s a results business but given the situation we were in as a club, I’d rather see what Lampard and Thelwell are doing in bringing down the average age of the squad, organising the defence so we...

    2022/23 Frank Lampard

    Surprised to see a few turning on Lampard already. Maybe people underestimate just how bad this squad was when he came in. We have a new DOF, a new manager and coaching staff. They are currently changing the playing staff, but due to the awful recruitment by the club, they’re struggling to...

    We have to get back to a four man defence

    It's nice to have options, and the two who played centre mid on Saturday did ok, but they're not a top half Premiership pairing by any stretch. Also given the potentially very able wing backs and a serious lack of quality in the wide areas further forward, Lampard could easily change the...

    2021/22 Frank Lampard

    How is Lampard getting stick for yesterday? We were well on top and creating chances, until we had the man sent off. How has VAR not called that back and given a penalty? It was a mistake from Branthwaite to get the wrong side of his man, but that Toney was doing it all game, going down if...
