Unless Dele becomes a genuine option, I don't think we have anyone in the squad to add that. Doucoure is our best option in that 10 role, which I personally find incredibly frustrating, but he is the best we have, I don't see Danjuma being that player.

What about Danjuma out wide and McNeill being played as the 10. He's getting his shooting radar now and him buzzing off the CF would give him chance to get more shots away from central positions.

As brilliant as the away form is currently it will start to balance out as the season goes on and will have to gamble more in home games to win them.
 
It's a tricky one. Doucoure is critical to Dycheball. However he's missed a few this season at home at crucial times (that was poor not getting it on target v Man. United at 1-0 last week). Would a Danjuma getting on end of some of those chances be more effective at converting?

Dyche however is last manager who will chop and change a team based on whether they're home or away so I think only change will be DCL back in if he trains o.k and try to get the first goal and grind a 1-0 out that way.
You could try McNeil in there as a no 10

I think McNeill could be very handy in the middle of the park, agreed, but he won't be moved because of his work rate and support for Myko, Danjuma won't be tracking back. Sometimes McNeill gets a rough time for not doing enough but I think it's on Dyche as he often ends up as a wing back due to how deep we sit. Dyche won't risk exposing Myko I don't think, as well as he is playing.
 
That sums it up well.

We all have our gripes but last season and now this season he has had the hardest job in the league, yet keeps putting out teams that fight and scrap their way to points.
Night and day to this time 12 months ago. Like all managers, they have their idiosyncrasies - but at least he is a proper football manager. The last lad was a PR man. Nice fella, for all that.
 

I have been incredibly critical of Dyche earlier in the season, and rightly so. However, he has managed to make us quiet solid now. Still alot of his decisions that baffles me, like with who he starts and his subs. Also there seem to be no plan when attacking, however we do have an awful attacking force so its not all on him. So credit to him for making us a hard team to beat and gathering up points.

lol

The arrogance
 

We would be 11th without the points deduction.

Give over
We lost a home vs Luton, Fulham and Wolves, but also won difficult away games against Brentford, Palace and West Ham, so I think this made it up in total. Of course I want Goodison to be a fortress, but in the end football is a results sports.
