2024/25 Sean Dyche - Sacked

So because we sold Onana, a player the manager actively didn’t want and dropped, for £60m and reinvested that into 6 new players, including 3 attacking players then that automatically makes the team worse

I don’t think we’ve got a better squad really. We’ve just shuffled the deck a bit, it’s pretty much the same level overall I’d say. It certainly isn’t substantially better.

For me success is not about always winning titles at Everton currently, but it's relating to a realistic ambition.

Jep, when I see 7 of 29 games and 32p won with a after that horrible lose run rather, where we indeed had some tough fixtures with a lot of top 8 teams of the league, makes it hard to justify. The last 18-20 games looked rather favorable on paper. Had Villa, Spurs, Chelsea and Newcastle away, but many bottom half teams included.

It's a 1p average if u take the last 3 games as well of December 2023.

(So 7 wins in 32 games.)

makes it a win average of 22%.

Because we play a style of football that was obsolete 15 years ago. We are effectively the modern day version of Stoke City, but with fancier named players. All that’s missing from our team under Dyche is someone who can take a long throw.

And preferably from our own half so they don't have to cross the half way line too often. Anything to defend that 0 - 0 draw. 1 defeat in 8 and all that. Nope Dyche, it is 2 wins in 11 which is absolutely shocking considering the opposition has mostly been mid to bottom teams.

Last season we had McNeil, Harrison, Dom, Beto and Danjuma as attacking options

This year we’ve added Lindstrom and NDiaye in replace of Danjuma (a player he didn’t want)

In the 12 months that Beto has been here he has neither improved, nor has Dyche found a way of getting a system for him or a way of getting him and dom on the pitch.

In over 40 games for the club, Jack Harrison has never been played in his preferred position on the left. He’s played on the right, and in the centre to ensure other players are accommodated.

Thats a coaching issue

Onana? Dropped him after the Chelsea 6-0 horror show. We beat Forest the next game and he kept a winning team, as he should.

We were then safe - and a player we knew we had to sell, and tried to sell desperately prior Euro 2024 kicking off.

But he was a mainstay in his team prior then.

But let's have it right - every window Dyche has been here, we've had to make a profit and sign players from clubs who accept 0/buttons upfront. We were desperately hoping Leeds didnt come up just to get Harrison back.

Here is my view on the summer window shared in August when most fans on here voted 13th-17th as expectation.

And here is my view on the previous summer window.

Proven right on both occasions.

Mate you can play your mental gymnastics all you want.

Sean Dyche did not want Onana at this club because he didn’t fit want he wants.

I’m not saying there isn’t a coaching issue, I’m simply saying people keep parroting the line that the squad has improved since last season and that is undeniably debatable. If it’s improved it’s marginal, it’s not a clearly better side on paper.

It's not.

We made profit, again.

We signed players like OBrien, who like a lot before him like Chermiti etc, had sod all to do with the manager.

there’s clearly a problem between him and thellwell

but like loads have said - we could have a combined MF of arsenal,liverpool, city

the attack of city, liverpool arsenal

and this yard dog would still try and

“stay in the game lads”

He played pretty much every game.

As I said, we got tonked 6-0 to Chelsea - Dyche made a fair few changes after it and we won the next game - Forest, he then kept a winning team and we beat Liverpool and Brentford. We were then safe and the whole world knew we desperately had to make a big sale - and we only had him or Branthwaite to sell.

There's no chance Dyche wanted us to sell Onana for Iroegbunam.

But it has improved. Because having 2 additional wingers (Lindstrom and Ndiaye) is clearly better than having Danjuma, who the manager had no interest in even trying to bed in.

The issue is how they are being used
