I'll be honest, I'm not going to watch the game on Sat (6:30am start here), and I'm generally just bummed out about the entire sport. Not paying attention to other games, not joking around with my friends about Everton, just defeated.
However, I do look forward to getting back into the swing of things and just enjoying the team again. It will happen, just a matter of when. Even if we go down I'll eventually get to the acceptance phase and will have fun watching the team again. If we stay up, even better. Regardless, this funk will go away at some point.

I really hope you're right. I've never been less optimistic about the funk eventually ending. They just refuse to ever start down the road.
The positive is we're still in the PL. If we started making good choices tomorrow we could still fix it all relatively quickly. I'm not saying we'd be in Europe in a couple years but we easily could be a steady mid-table side for the second half of this decade. It's not over for us.
I think we still have a more than decent chance of staying up. We've just less than half a season to go, no cup trophies to distract us, relatively few injuries at the moment, a new manager bounce to help us, and that we signed nobody in the window should help the new manager build a 'us against the world' mentality within the squad. Nobody expects us to take anything from the Arsenal game, the same way nobody expected us to take anything from the City game either.
Worst case, even if its not to be, Dyche will learn a lot about who has the stomach for the fight to get us back up again, and who needs to be shot out the back door asap. Those that can't face the battle or pressure this season won't be able for it next season either.
I said before we were bought out by Moshiri that we should be careful what we wish for and I was correct is that a positive ?
Ill give you 1 week! ?
At least our sporting director is not overworked, coming back to work after deadline day well rested and beaming.

You can’t polish a turd but you can roll it in glitter. Dyche is going to put a shine on these turds/diamonds/…
Not expecting anything against the gooners, but I do expect something against the RS and I am confident we will stay up
How’s that for positive and that was just after 5 beers. Give me an hour or so and we’ll be top half by seasons end.

Yeah when I say start making good decisions Sean Dyche is almost certainly not a part of it. I'd need to see serious changes in his approach to think longer term he's worth keeping around whether we go down or not.
And tbh listening to some of his interviews the last few months that doesn't seem likely to happen. If anything he's doubling down on the same things he's always done. It isn't that I need him to make wholesale changes but can we at least maybe thing about some new ideas? Your career isn't that successful to just run it back at a new club.
Up or down the right decision for me is making this a 6 month lifeboat type deal unless we're playing legitimately well in a sustainable way. Learn from the Lampard mistake.
Also to try and be positive here Dyche really doesn't have to reinvent the wheel. Just add a little bit more to the possession side to both relieve some pressure and score more goals and his system is probably pretty workable. I just don't believe yet that he intends to even try to do it.

"I think we have a more than decent chance of staying up."
Is that a quote from Edward Smith?
I hope you're right, cap'n!
