2024/25 Sean Dyche

Managers are always taught to control what can be controlled. Agree the players aren’t good enough to compete reasonably well, don’t agree they are performing as well as they can. Manager not good enough either but we can control his situation far easier than a 23 man squad. Control what can be controlled and get rid of him.
Absolutely.

Start then burning it in January and totally napalm it next summer hopefully.

But Dyche shouldn’t see the derby, it’ll be disgusting if he manages our last ever Goodison derby.

Nobody will disagree with you.

It's just that Evertonians have a tendency to get attached to donkeys in blue who win the odd game or two under a new manager (before showing their true colours - yellow - once more).

"Can we keep him? Can we keep him?"

"No, son. Doucoure is going to the glue factory."
 
Wouldn’t surprise me if they left him in till this run of games is over, as a new manager will be coming in to face all the best teams in the league. Better off leaving it till after Crimbo. As much as I want him gone it probably makes more sense to make him see this run of games out.

How? I’m sorry, how does it make any sense or make the new manager’s job easier to let games run out and let us slide further down the table for when he takes over??? We have a winnable game on Wednesday anyway.
 
Forest had a net spend of £19m in the summer
Bournemouth £34m
We have brought in players this Summer, but lost Onana who Dyche never played anyway. We have either targeted the wrong players (2 new full backs should have been a priority) or the players we’ve recruited aren’t being utilised effectively. I guess the answer is both.
 

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?
It could also be fatigue setting in. When you have a team, that rarely changes its personnel, introduces subs extremely late in the game, and plays the majority of time without the ball, one game can be energy sapping but doing it for nearly two years must be challenging to say the least.
 
I am with you about the players, but for me they have been coached and managed backwards, and are performing below what they are capable of, which was proven last season, even with the points deduction.

Ive said previously that they are some of the worst players assembled, but do we all genuinely believe that a different manager and a more modern, flexible, tactical approach would make zero difference to how they have performed and played this season?

As a player, it can`t help either when all you hear from the manager, is him deflecting blame from him onto the team week in week out.

" It`s not me, it`s them "

It's time to bring him home.

If your called crap enough, your gonna feel and act crap.

Same with any job on the planet, what dyche does isn’t good leadership or management, and I’ve worked for people just like him in the past.

Takes the credit for anything good, never their fault when mistakes or problems arise.
