Well they were a mid table Championship team when he took over Burnley. He took them into the PL and yes did a yoyo which is understandable. One year he finished 6th in the PL and qualified for Europe. He had no money and the lack of investment caught up with Burnley at the end. You are just a glass half empty sort of person who cant look at what he actually achieved with the resources he had available. Hes a top manager, just not fashionable for people like you.

He's not a top manager. A top manager doesn't stay unemployed for 9 months and end up right back in a relegation battle. He's a limited manager who has improved us because any amount of competence was likely to improve us. He's not a million miles away from having something here however we've seen down the years now that the last few steps are beyond him.

He is an underrated mansger. Gruff and English, both out of fashion with owners of premier league teams.
His performance at Burnley was excellent - small club, small stadium, no budget, no superstars - but year after year they competed.
Right now he the manager we need.

I reckon the biggest attribute the likes of Dyche and Allardyce have is to keep morale up among players that hardly ever win.

Some performances are better than others, but we've been down there for two years and appointed a relegation zone manager for a reason.

He'll just be thinking of ways to drag Fulham into a crap, boring game, and maybe workshopping a few quips for his next press conference.

One game against a side in the top three and referee that gave us nothing… and you are on his back.
We have a poor side, no striker options, and we have been performing as a mid table side, despite us playing some of the top leagues top teams

This is just the same old Moyes and Allardyce spiel about how they could win the lot if only they had the resources of the top clubs, even though it requires a completely different skillset that's world's apart from what they and their ilk (eg Dyche) bring to the table.

And he finished 7th in 2018, not 6th.

6th / 7th...no big difference. But anyway hardly the relegation places every year that you originally stated. You could put Pep in charge of this squad and he would win sweet FA. So what are you saying, a magic skillset to turn average PL players into premier league winners. Having a laugh pal, but we can draw a line under this now.

Exactly. It’s all conjecture of course, but I feel that if we’d appointed Dyche earlier - during the World Cup - we’d be far more comfortable right now.

I’d like more wins than we’ve had, but we’ve played some difficult opponents and got decent enough results; we now need to beat Fulham.

Well hes managing in the top division in the country so he cant be that bad. I mean Frank got a job straight away at chelsea so does that mean hes now world class.....
I think Dyche was waiting for the right opportunity to come along. But i dont know the actual reason, i guess he needed a break?
How long has pochettino been unemployed, are you now saying hes a gash manager?
Non of your points stack up im afraid.

I think his first point, "he's not a top manager" stacks up. That's not to discredit him at all, and as said before, we're not a top team. It's just where we find ourselves at this point in history. Nobody would have wanted Dyche 24 months ago, but he's here to to a job and I think he will succeed with the task set.

Some have actually turned on Dyche? Behave.
While he did get it wrong today, was anything he did there going to be right?
If he learnt a bit more about our squad and we got no injuries move onto Fulham.
Without one of there best players three points next Saturday is easily doable

100% this. Would also mention that United front 3 represent some £240m worth of talent. Ours… about 10% of that.
 
Given we lost away to United who are arguably the third best team in the league, I’m really surprised at the reaction.

We aren’t being relegated because of yesterday’s result. A draw would hsve been massive, a loss is par.

We are 4th from bottom. We only need to match the other three teams between now and the end of the season and we’ll be fine.

Given the games to play, that’s more than realistic.

Re dyche, I’m just really surprised that so many Evertonians have watched Burnley on a regular basis over the last 10 years.

A defeat or even draw at home to Fulham I would consider potting him as a last throw of the dice for the season. There's nothing about him that screams he should be retained for the long term if he takes us down.

No one would want to take over our utter mess of a club and would be doomed to failure if there didn't have the experience to deal with things on and off the pitch

Dyche stays regardless.
