Dyche and Thelwell

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

….i don’t think anybody will argue that it’s more difficult finding quality with a very limited budget but I believe that’s when a DoF/Manager combination really earn their corn. The PL and even Everton are still an attractive proposition and it’s a big old world out there.

There’s really no excuse for buying poor footballers.

The other irony is, I don’t believe we have a single Academy recruit regularly playing (since Gordon left).

No, there's plenty of excuses for buying poor footballers, just as people seem to find plenty of excuses for poor managers lately. If you think Everton have been an attractive proposition over the last couple of years, perhaps try to look at it without the perspective of being a fan. Our net spend the last couple of years has been negative, so even if a player would love to join us, if we don't have the money, they ain't coming. Last season we only secured Beto because of a delayed transfer fee.

I'd have no problem if he got rid of both and we start from scratch , in fact it's my preferred option.

Thelwell is far from perfect but he has had a negative net spend , reduced the wage bill and still given Dyche a slightly better squad than he had before. That merits some acknowledgement. However it's also right to say that the squad lacks balance especially in attack and full back.

I can see why TFG might keep Thelwell on.

However there is no case whatsoever for keeping Dyche on. Everything that he does inhibits this teams ability to play progressive, attractive, attacking football. The likes of him Pulis , Alladyce and Warnock are finished as PL managers , thank god.

Summed up what I wanted to say much better hah.
