I liked his interview yesterday. It’s going to take time to turn this shower around. We can’t go from nearly relegated to European footy overnight. He did an exceptional job at Burnley until it went a bit stale. Every manager has a shelf life at clubs. He’s not going to play free flowing football but that’s not what we need right now.Cautiously optimistic about Dyche. He is a manager who spent the time away from the game improving himself and evolving as a manager as per interviews. Dyche is a manager who knows how he wants to play, what kind of players he wants and how to grind out points. At the very least I think we will have a team with structure and well understood game plan come next season. But the most important thing is that he KNOWS what he wants. No ifs and buts.
What I like about Dyche is that he makes adjustements during the matches and changes tactics between games. Apart from Martinez in his first season, none of our managers have done that. For example Koeman and Allardyce would never make any changes to their approach, even if it wasn't working at all.
Yesterday was a brief preview of that adjustability during a match. After the goal, we went defensive looking for counter attacks. And apart for few heart attacks, it worked. We got those quick counter attack opportunities and Bournemouth had hard time getting to our box.
Get us 13th/14th next season and that’s a good performance IMO.
