2024/25 Sean Dyche - Sacked

[Iana]

Sean Dyche in 2024 is so on point and up to date with modern football he still believes clubs use a “cheque book”
Even this fella’s banking is outdated ffs

I bet he insists on being paid cash as well…mind you he would need a big brown envelope/wheelbarrow.

I don’t know whether Saturday’s draw with Brentford was Sean Dyche’s last audition to prove that he can take Everton forward post-takeover, but he is quickly running out of chances and excuses.

Ask any Everton supporter outside Goodison on Saturday teatime and they would give you the same answer: this was a necessary marriage for a long while but there is little appetite for staying together now.

They had just watched the perfect Dyche storm, a manager who knows that Everton are fighting and who has thus turned them into scrappers but struggles to change gears when the situation requires it.

Everton had an hour against 10 men and an opponent who had failed to take a single point away from home all season. Not only were they restricted to a series of low-quality chances, but they allowed Brentford to create the most dangerous chances on the counter.

This was Dyche being asked: what more have you got? He always said that he played a certain way at Burnley because of what he had and that better players would lead to different football. Everton are playing exactly like Burnley and Dyche’s response was to say “Most managers can change it by chequebook. We can’t do that, so the development continues.”

I’m sorry, but that’s not on now. You’ve been in charge here for almost two years. Yes, the budgets have been particularly tight over that time – and that’s not on you. But Everton do have decent players and there was plenty enough in that front four to create chances and win home games.

It’s not only that Everton have six points from six games at Goodison this season (Brighton, Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, Fulham, Newcastle, Brentford) and have scored five goals during them. It’s that you watch them and can’t really see what the plan is to create high-value chances.

That might just do for Dyche, at which point plenty of pundits will say that he has been badly mistreated and deserves to spend on this squad to shape it in his own vision. That is a highly generous assessment.

This team is limping during its final season in a grand old ground because the team has been hardwired to assume that you can’t expect more than this. And I just don’t believe that that is true.

Well, it's unrealistic to expect some players to improve none stop over a period of 2 years.

It's fair to say though that some of them aren't performing at the level he got out of them last season. Who though? Tarkowski, for sure, and Myko. I think we've long since seen the best of Doucoure, Gana Gueye has been consistent for me, and Dwight has been better this season. Harrison has disappointed, Garner has barely got going, likewise Branthwaite, so hard to say, and I think Beto is definitely giving him more of a headache than he did last season, and Young is definitely playing better.

Any other players you thought he was getting more out of last season?

So could it be that he didn’t actually improve them and they just strung a little tiny bit of good form together at different varying points of the season? Doucoure’s good spell lasted a handful of months at best, likewise McNeil, likewise Garner.

He’s a crap manager mate.

I had my suspicions alright

 

[allen]

I honestly think any hope he had of remaining on in the short term post-takeover rode out of town on Saturday.

He'll be gone before the January window closes.

You mean pray Matty, prey means something else, and when taken out of context, could have, ummmm, vastly negative implications for you lad!

I mean, surely we can agree that he's at least improved Myko in the last 2 years Mike?

A priority area of the team that needs addressing in the summer.

Nowhere near good enough for the Championship.

He runs Martina pretty close for me. - Remember when we allowed a fat kopite who was trying to relegate us to buy the worst full back in the Premier League? - Not even close to Premier League standard and never will be. - He’s been here a year now, he isn’t a new signing. Evra had about 3 dodgy games. This fella looks worse now than he did when he first joined, he isn’t improving. Feb '23

That Charlie Taylor at Burnley is head and shoulders better than this little wet flannel, there are plenty of Championship sides he wouldn’t get anywhere near. - Sell this little quilt for any amount of money. - Jan '23

I mean I still think Mykolenko is terrible mate so not the best example.

We need better like, but it's still fair to say this manager has got more out of him than we'd previously seen.

We’ve seen him have a selected handful of decent games, just like we did in the back end of Lampard’s first season when he scored that volley at Leicester, and at the start of the next season when our defence started off pretty solid.

Going back to Dyche, I think it’s extremely tough to argue that he’s improved a single one of our players as a footballer.

Let’s see how this goes until the fans in the stadium who haven’t been gaslit by 30 years of “knife to a gunfight” start getting toxic once we get pumped five games in a row over December.

Beyond untenable for Dyche to stay. It’s a results business and failing to score from 27 shots against a ten man team along with losing late goals and games where we have been two up this season is not good enough.

Moshiri doesn't care mate. He doesn't care.

 

[NathDogg]

I’m hoping the couple of anti-dyche articles that have come out post Saturday are significant, meaning that it’s TFG beginning the process of clearing house with the media briefing.

The narrative has clearly shifted, and not before time for the 6th best paid manager in the premier league, ladies and gentlemen.

 

[Lob]

The foreseeable future = until TFG get in and then do whatever they plan to do. Could literally be anytime now as we are approaching the end of November and there isn't a specific date, just a guide. Done when its done and hopefully very soon.
