2023/24 Sean Dyche

Not open for further replies.
There just seems to be a stubbornness with some managers….Dyche has it with Keane, Lampard had it with trying to play front foot football with players not suited, and Martinez with sideways tikka taka. The successful managers have a philosophy but also a pragmatism and more importantly are able to learn from past mistakes - none of our managers seem to have thodd qualities.

The club is in the state it’s in due to the owner and the Board, but we don’t need managers piling on top by bringing their own problems to the team as well. His reliance on Keane, his reluctance to play youth/inexperiences and his inability to make decision in game which may affect the result are shocking quite frankly. I thought he was the right fit for this moment in time. He would get six more games as fas I am concerned with the very large caveat being we would need to replace him properly which the owner will not do. Moshiri would flip a coin 100 times, call heads and still get tails…it’s absurd how much he gets wrong.
 
Nonsense btw - Keane was great in a low block for us under Carlo, to the point he was touted around for England and whatnot.

Nothing to do with the ownership that Dyche is a slug - they chose him and that’s where the buck stops with them. He has chosen to play his favourites, he’s chosen to make stupid changes, he chooses the team, he sets out how we play, and it’s all garbage.

Players are limited, yes, not this much though - we’re playing a number 10 who can’t control the ball, central players forced out wide, a midget striker who we actively hoof to. All of those have alternatives, but those alternatives are “not ready” or if they are - are isolated from the game as we don’t play to anyone’s strengths currently.
you lost me at "keane was great" 😆

Fully agree. Dyche has taken a strange dislike to Gray, and still gives game time to Keane and Maupay. Meanwhile Branthwaite sits on the bench. Our most confident ball player in Garner is played on the right wing. Lewis Dobbin, who was a breath of fresh air when I saw him in preseason games because I can’t remember the last time a player in an Everton shirt wanted to run with the ball and take players on, is sitting on the bench.
And yet again we have again been totally embarrassed in a league game, yet Sean Dyche in his post match comments, seemed at a loss to understand why and how this happened.
 

Dyche was touted on his arrival that he was capable of taking a championship quality side to mid table safety, but now we are being told he needs better quality players to achieve this.
That’s not what it said on the packet.
Any team that is set up to surrender the midfield and with it the initiative for long periods of play will struggle to survive in this league, as Burnley eventually found out.
What is it , 20 games in and 5 wins ?
And now after a full preseason 2 games , 2 defeats no goals scored and 5 conceded.
At this point he is failing as completely as any of the dismissed managers who preceded him.
Oh and Micheal Keane , what’s that about then?
Correct. He was "the best we could get" and the sort of manager who could "guarantee" our premier league status. Now it's all "what can he do with this squad of players". No doubt one of them will soon be along to reinform me that we won't be signing Mbappe to get us out of this and that we need to be patient with Dyche as this is all Lampard's fault or something.

What gets me about the post-match interviews is all this "we need to find consistency" claptrap. It's literally your job to get us that consistency, Sean. I'm confused at what he thinks his role here is. It's like he thinks he has no effect on the teams performance or the patterns of play. He's getting on my wick, tbh.
 
Are we wanting Dyche Out yet?

Or should I wait a few weeks until we're essentially playing 2 rows of 4 in a low block and offensively heaving long balls up to Maupay and Doucoure for our 21% possession?
He gets 10 games for me, which takes us to the start of November.

If we are bottom 3 and looking as bad as we did on Sunday, he's toast.

New guy comes in after we inevitably get bummed in the derby and has a couple of months before the window.
 
Tactically Dyche isn’t good enough, he’s old skool manager, football has moved on ! Dyche out
I thought we played well against Fulham and if it wasn’t for not being bought a striker, Doucoure not squaring for an open goal, the ref not chalking off a perfectly fine goal and Patterson missing an open goal we’d have three points… not sure I blame Dyche for that.

Villa game was total crap and I blame Dyche for picking Keane but we were looking decent until Dom broke his face which was unlucky.

I’m going to wait until the next two games before knee jerking

Yeah- it’s almost like he’s talking in the third person, as if the set up and preparation of the team wasn’t to do with him. Someone should tell him he’s not a podcaster and his job is to stop the things happening that keep going wrong.
