2022/23 Sean Dyche

[Saint Domingo]

This is nothing like when we brought in Allardyce. That was never a relegation battle, this very much is. You've also kind of proved your own point wrong, the fact that we're only 3 points off 14th means that draws very much could keep us up. It would be if we were adrift that you'd think we need to throw caution to the wind and go a bit mad because only wins will do, in this situation making ourselves difficult to beat and sneaking some tight games could easily be enough.

I know what you’re saying about the league table in 17/18, but watching us under Koeman we looked the worst team in the league and highly likely to go down when Allardyce came in. I think I was more convinced of relegation then than I was now.

We had a back 4 of Martina a veteran Jagielka, Keane with a gashed foot and Kenny

No pace or creativity in midfield

A forward line with no pace or threat whatsoever

Perhaps the one saving grace was we knew we could spend big in January, but i actually think we have a bit more lace and power in all positions now than we did then.

 

[kenada_blue]

As low as it gets for me, absolute embarrassment of a state we’re in. Can’t bear it. We don’t have players for his hoofball - going to have to get some big huddies in in the last few days of the window for his style. Terrible.

So what do we have the players for then?

 

[only_sleeping]

Can't get excited or hopeful about this appointment at all. The club is in such a mess, it's heartbreaking.

Calvert-Lewin up to the old tricks again?

 

[Lanolin]

One thing to watch out for with trepidation is Dyche loves to sign over the hill English players. Think Peter Crouch, Aaron Lennon, Dale Stephens. With funds being tight, instead of looking for upcoming youngters like what his successor at Burnley has done, I expect a bunch of Crouch type signings to join the club.

Comparing the job Dyche had to do at Burnley to the one Kompany has to do is just daft. Nobody has to be overjoyed by this appointment - and I don't think anybody is - but a lot of the criticisms people are throwing out are baseless.

DOF buys the players.

Wait for the clash. Dyche has never worked with a director of football before

 

[Armaghtoffee]

….like a few others, they’re still smarting over Benitez.

Closet Kopites.

 

[USABlue]

DOF buys the players.

Evidence of the years hasn't shown that. You can our recent managers and Moshiri have had alot of sway in that

 

[canuckblue]

Sign for a pawnshop that pic.

 

[Mathieubleucoyb]

Short term fix over a long term. We are patching a flat tire and going off-road.

 

[maccavennie]

Once upon a time we gathered round our laptops on flight tracker all watching a private jet fly Papa Carlo in.

Now we all wait for Sean Dyche who deffo drives a double decker bus to work.

 

[The Nature Boy]

@Connor You seem to be in favour of this appointment.

Make the Naitch feel better about it.

Why?

 

[Mrk]

Christ we're appointing the bald mafia. No hair follicles allowed.

Really? Please show your working out.
