2024/25 Sean Dyche - Sacked


I’m still in the 10%, just. Not because I agree with him or the way he plays but because I still think he will keep us up.

I wouldn’t have picked that side yesterday. I find it bizarre that he’s not playing wingers who cross the ball in for Broja or DCL, such as Harrison on the left. I agree with you all that another manager would get a lot more out of the attacking players we have. I saw Wissa miss that chance for Brentford and thought, poor old Beto only gets to miss one of those and he’s hooked. The miss is magnified like missing a bus because there is only one a day.

We could do without another severance payment.

We really need a hard reset in the summer—full suite of coaches and leadership with some youth and energy in the squad. If we change now, and I’m not convinced I’m right by any stretch, we’ll almost certainly see us with either a manager to suit the squad (like Moyes) or worse, a manager that doesn’t and you can see what that’s doing at Manchester United.

Anyway, the owners will be assessing all the options. Relegation would be bad but not terminal, so rolling the dice isn’t as risky. Look at Villa.

Anyway fellow Evertonians, let’s get behind the team Thursday and trust the owners. There will be better times ahead.
Let's commend this man for his bravery.

The Friedkins would prefer not to sack him for a million reasons, not least the squeeze it would put on Everton’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR) position, which is tight enough for the club to be looking predominantly at loan moves if they can’t move players on to free up financial headroom.

deally they would like to take stock of the situation before hiring a new coach, with sources pointing to the summer as a time to “reset everything” with so many players out of contract and turning a page on their financial issues.

With Dyche and Kevin Thelwell’s deals up, any major changes would make more sense then.
They can run a proper process, informed by evidence and observations of how the club is run, before deciding the right man for the future.

The optics of new owners who have run into trouble at Roma for being too trigger-happy with coaches immediately sacking the manager at Everton might be problematic for their reputation, too.

But all of that mitigation will surely go out of the window if Dyche is unable to navigate the club into a more productive run of results.
Because – let’s be brutally honest – the football is so one-dimensional that it can only be justified by results.
The view of one senior Premier League executive is instructive.

Without Dyche, he argues, they might have less points. lol
