2023/24 Sean Dyche

[OneTrueLegend]

We have lost the last 3 in a row, but I dont think we need to be all doom and gloom yet. The Christmas period was always going to be tough. we dont have a big squad and had 3 games close together, had to shuffle things a bit and played Man City and Spurs. The worst one was the Wolves result, we didnt lay a glove on them and let them walk through us. I think the biggest problem we have is not having a back up to Doucoure. Gomes did OK for a short period against spurs and we should have drawn that game, but although his passing is better than anyone in out midfield, he's not mobile enough to compete against a lot of premier league midfields for 90 minutes.

I think this is totally right. Doucoure is key to what they're doing and without him everything falls off a bit. We can all sit here and say well he needs to find another way of playing that means we can just do just as well without Doucoure but it isn't that simple and seeing as we've hardly found one way of playing that makes us competitive over the last 10 years i'm not going to go too mad at Dyche for not finding two yet.

 

[Titus Bramble]

Won 4 out of 7 league games in a congested December.

Would he be getting the same pelters if our form was this:

WLWLWLW

instead of this:

WWWWLLL

 

[Sharpattack]

Assist for Cal-Lewins winner vs palace.

Really scraping the barrel. DeBeek scored a goal.

 

[Rita_Poon]

Really scraping the barrel. DeBeek scored a goal.

It was the winner in the 3-2 that kept us up. So far as barrels go, it's gold plated ffs.

[twoblue]

Thing is an agree with what he says. It’s all true.
Straight talking no fluff.
I would rather we played like Man City but from where we are now this is as good as we will get

 

[Toffeelover]

Hah, no mention of the Wolves game.

 

[Titus Bramble]

That reference was to the start of the season. No mention of Wolves game after Spurs and City. Or that he has got things wrong.

Are you really that arsed?

 

[Toffeelover]

Are you really that arsed?

I fear where Dyche is taking us.

 

[Taifi gorm]

Luck is not a factor when shoehorning Keane into the team. There is only the certainty of defeat.
