2024/25 Sean Dyche - Sacked

[COYBL25]

Three very good unexpected draws. Now the acid test. Forest at Goodison. Can he turn draws into wins?

I don’t think he has a future here - but if he beats Forest he will be making something of a case for consideration…

No chance, two teams who sit deep and one who can confidently score goals on the break ( not us )

 

[TheBigIguana]

Forest are essentially a very good version of us (due largely to personnel). Whereas they have Elanga, Gibbs-White, Jota, Hudson-Edoi and Wood to hurt teams we only really have N’Diaye.

They play deep, hit teams quick on the counter and rarely concede (24 goals scored, 19 conceded - they are 3rd). I do largely think our problem is personnel, Dyche is by no means a ‘good’ manager but he’s far from the worst in the league.

Hopefully we manage to continue this uptick through January, a couple of new wide players and a full back with pace and we part ways with him and thank him for a pretty thankless job well done.

All players we could have signed fwiw.

I am sure, they would have won the game today or vs Chelsea with the same amount of few chances.

Because they are deadly in front of the goal with even few chances.

Money though.

We couldn’t afford any of them really, maybe Wood at the time they signed him.

 

[Paulyefc]

Wolves have had the new manager bounce and are now looking like they could stay up . Maybe Moshiri could pick a decent manager after all

SuperKev Thellwell?

azul parrying the fury directed at Dave is an interesting tactics and not one I was expecting. I shall watch this thread with very much interest.

I see no fury brother.

Just creating an awareness of today’s comments which may have gone unnoticed.

We have spent some money though. We couldn't have signed all of those players but if we wanted an actual attack we probably could have signed one or two.

Not for a while mate. More specifically, not from our league in a while.

Foreign teams are more likely to be conducive to being paid on Klarna, prem teams want to see more up front. We’ve not been in a position to do that for some time.

Forest is a must win otherwise we are in huge trouble. Drawing our way to safety isn’t an option.

People do really struggle with the math that drawing every game does not get you to 40 points.

Think it’ll almost certainly be the three promoted sides luckily. Leicester will get twatted in a bit. If you look into their stats under RVN they’re way worse than under Cooper, teams who concede that many chances/goals don’t stay up.

They can’t afford to get any new defenders either. Wouldn’t surprise me if RVN is gone by March.

That’s all great but we’re 3 points ahead of them. 3.

We also couldn’t beat them.

Not halfway yet, see where both teams are in a month or two.

You should have seen some of the math teachers in the 80s.
