2024/25 Sean Dyche

What another manager can do though mate is getting them in areas further up the pitch to at least to support the attack.

Myko is by no means Digne but he is better than what he's showing like almost every player right now.
They are completely void of confidence
The defence defends for almost 90% of the game because we concede possession
The forwards feed of not even scraps
The midfield gets bypassed

How are we meant to get players in form or get them confident on the ball when we dont have it.
He doesnt even know how to engage the crowd at goodison by being on the front foot for more than 10 mins.

If you have no pace in the team then you cant play counter attack which is what we are trying to do, defend then break.
We play long ball but dont get men around DCL for the knock downs
Its completely useless what he's doing

Hope you're right mate - time will quickly tell whether its on the manager, or whether it's the players too. Will fans just blame the next guy as being another terrible manager as the reason why we're in a relegation fight? Or if he's trendy, will it then be on the players?

If it's say, Potter. Well he took £100m and 3 years to move Brighton to 41 points/beyond 1 point improvement on Houghton.

If it's say, Moyes. He earned 3 points on us last season.

There's no quick fix to this Everton team in my view. It needs big money spending on it.
 
I wouldnt let him near FF in the morning never mind Wednesday

Forgetting Dyche for a second here (and I’ve not seen anyone defend him for a long time - who are these ‘Dychettes’?!) - is anyone still f’ing defending these players?!

We’ve been in and amongst relegation battles over a period of 5/6 years, any quality we get we inevitably lose.

Who the hell is defending our full backs, midfield and wide options?!

Our centre backs and strikers (and Pickford) are probably mid table passable but everywhere else is woeful.

Starting to wonder if anyone watches any other games than ours and just assumes our lads are mid table quality… got some really bad news for you.
Didn’t we finished mid table last season,
Though we went nearly half the Season without a victory. The league is extremely poor and there’s plenty of teams with weaker squads. How are Forest and Brentford so far ahead of us this early into the season, especially when we’ve had a nice easy start fixture wise. And don’t give me the” that have much better players than us “ it’s nonsense and just another excuse for this dinasour

Why always big money?

Collective heads in the sand, can’t be that this group are all crap as well. Must just be that Dyche is a crap manager (yep, we know - we all watched him at Burnley).

It’s like some fans can’t accept that these players aren’t fit to wear the shirt either. It’s either that or they don’t watch any other games and assume that spending nearly 250m less than forest (for example) net over the last five years wouldn’t create a gap.
 
Whay always big money?


Brighton spent more money than anyone in world football in the summer.

Years of being a very well run club, meant they were able.

We've not had that. That's no single managers fault.

Literally the only example of it working well. Look at the rest of the league.

Tell me you don’t watch any other team without telling me you don’t watch any other team.

As I said before;



Can't believe any manager gets Mykolenko to start whipping balls in to get his first Premier League assist in nearly 80 games. Or find McNeil, Doucoure, Lindstrom or any combination of attack to start scoring the goals they've never done to the level we need in their careers.
In general and I think you are right.
Some people seem to believe that a new manager can turn these players into something they have never been before.

I would say however that for me the players are not as prepared to work as hard for the manager or" die with their boots on for him" in the same way they did in the previous two seasons.

I don't know if it is tactics or attitude but at present a draw is the new win for us no matter who seems to be the opposition.

I think we have seen this scenario play out so often in recent seasons where the writing is on the wall for the manager but the sacking is being put off and delayed.

I wonder if we were not in an ownership vacuum would he still be manager after the performances so far this season?

I haven't seen any signs of them 'downing tools' - the effort is there. Other than perhaps Lindstrom's sulking.

Dyche was being replaced by Rangnick apparently the first time TFG were in talks, prior to them walking away. He, and the players know he's not getting another contract and gone under TFG. Is that helpful? No. It's why they need to make the change day 1, and then, more importantly IMO, invest in the team in January.

I think its on both tbh mate. The Manager and the players have been very poor. Whether he has lost them or not i don't know but some of these players have a history of inconsistency so its definitely on both. When TFG bring in the new Manager they will need to have a transfer fund available for him within ffp rules so he can do a few bits and bobs in January to get us by and then start a real new build in the summer.

Just need the damn takeover to complete asap so we can get out of this purgatory we are in.

To get us out of the mess as a whole it is more than just the manager i agree and i think every single fan agrees.

To get us away from potential relegation with the current squad then just a half decent manager would do that, and im 100% certain this will be proved once its done.

When i say away from it i mean most of the season being 8-9 points (Breathing space) away from it with also going in to the games with at least the hope of winning every game we play.
I believe this squad with the right manager is good enough for that, then we build from there.

I dont think Potter would work here, i think he is a slow burner and im not sure we have the patience for that.
