2024/25 Jarrad Branthwaite

Returning from a loan spell at PSV Eindhoven in 2022/23, Branthwaite went on to make 35 Premier League appearances for Everton last season and won his first England cap against Bosnia and Herzegovina at St James’ Park on June 3. However, Dyche insisted the player would have to bide his time and said: “He’s had one season in the Premier League. Don’t get me wrong, one very, very good season but it’s still only one season in the Premier League.

“He’s got a lot of learning to go and a lot of developing to go in my opinion. Fitness is a big part of that to physically be out there.

“He was out quite a long time. He came back in and got re-injured, so we didn’t want that of course.

“In the bit in between, we’d won games. In my opinion, we should have won the last one and we didn’t, so it all looks different.

“So if you win that, all of a sudden you’re three wins and three draws from those six and everyone looks at it differently and that’s just the nature of being at Everton Football Club and being the manager. When you’re talking about teams, and we know that he’s a very good player, Jarrad, and that unit did very well last season, the back five if you like.

“There were some changes, but that unit played together a lot, so, we know all that. We want to address every part of the pitch and the key one is still scoring goals, we created enough chances last week to score goals and gave away very, very little in terms of good chances for the opposition.”
Oh God, we're deffo seeing Keane and Tarkowski starting again against WHam aren't we. Dyche is such a bell.

Not only is the Oaf not playing him, but the idiot is actually trying to lower his transfer fee. Get him out asap.

One of the great managers once said “if you’re good enough you’re old enough”. Then there’s Dyche….
 
He'll just hand in a transfer request in January.

Transfer request incoming.

Can’t be having this from an Everton manager, sorry, it’s complete Bolloxx.
This is it, he's on his way in the summer anyway, he might as well just go if he's not going to get playing time. Keeping him is the reason we haven't signed any effective attackers, because everything pointed towards him being the difference between us staying up and going down. That's still the case, but he's not playing him anyway
 
It’s hard to believe how lucky we are to have Dr Dyche in charge.

You’ve got to get them fit to actually play. If you put them out there too early, I thought it was a bit early for Jarrad, but the consensus was ‘no, I think he’s right to go and play,’ and then two days later he got injured again.’

Is there no end to his talents?

(Just don’t mention he got injured during one of the Gaffers 9 mile yomps while giving Woany a piggyback over Formby dunes )
