2024/25 Sean Dyche - Sacked

[GrandOldTeam]

You have repeatedly said this team/squad is relegation fodder.

I have.

Thanks for noticing.

For about 4/5 years now.

Every summer.

Under Lampard. And Dyche.

And it played out that way.

Was it Benitez, Lampard and Dyche.

Or the players.

Or both?

My long term, repetitive view is we don't have the goals in the team to provide a baseline of goals to take us midtable and above.

But now with Moyes we can reach 12th? Btw with this squad we can reach higher than 12th IMO, would need a little luck but i would say about 10th is this squad maximized

Search my posts for 12th-17th - I've said that for years.

We earned enough points to finish 12th last season.

This team, at best without injuries....12th. At worst, 17th

That's not relegation fodder.

It is.

Everton have averaged 41 points for 3 seasons.

Take pride out of it, this team has been relegation fodder.

This team has been minutes from relegation. Twice.

Any team thats been in successive relegation fights, is in one until it definitely isn't.

I think its there for all to see that it was the manager that was relegation fodder not the squad.

This is why Dyche gets no praise from me because a thousand managers could of done what he done over the last 2 years, if he done the unexpected then yes he gets a pat on the back. This is Everton FC he managed not Burnley or Norwich so keeping us in the league is not and never will be an achievement.

You, like I, thought we'd go down before he come in.

He kept us in relegation battles by his shambolic playing style.

Not for me.

We were circling the drain and in our worst ever position before him.

Moshiri, Kenwright and co put us in relegation contention.
