2024/25 Sean Dyche

We were unlucky not to come away with a point against a team that finished 4th last season away from home.

We should have also had a penno if our players had brains and gone down.

Villa can spend spend spend whilst we've been cut to the bone the past 3 seasons yet some expect us to compete against teams like these & Spurs. They spent £50m on our best midfielder in the summer.

Context is needed.

They sold a midfielder for £60m you freak.
 

Tried to tell anyone who'd listen all summer we're relegation fodder and we'd go to May again this season.

Trust me - Dyche or no Dyche, we're in the same boat.

Still, results business and if we don't pickup any in the next 2 then they've got to at least pretend to be interested about staying in the league.

Still, this;
Disagree….yes we are not great and we were likely to be in low down, but we do not have a manager who is capable of being a positive difference points wise to the team. I genuinely can’t think of a game under him (and there’s no agenda here) where he’s made a decision in a game where we have gained points from his decision making. It would appear however that we are in a phase where his inability to make a decision or make the wrong decision will cost us points
 
We had better players under a title winning manager in Benitez, and a young progressive manager in Lampard.

Still relegation fodder then.

A lot of our fans overrate this team big time.
Calling Benitez title winning is a stretch and a half

The fella went into Triple winning Inter Milan and had them 10th before getting acnned

The struggles is the poor managers we appoint. All tactically inept
 

Villa are the better team, good side.

In all honesty we had chances to win that at least get a point.

First goal bad defending, second set up by a deflection third - what can you say.

Collection of the above = result.

Feel we dropped the ball in the summer, getting roasted down the flanks and no full backs - crisis there.

We need Branthwaite back.

As for the manager, feel he will get the next three, ultimately it’s a results business, but still say it would be a huge mistake to change managers.

He needs to go into the international break with momentum and point in the board or he’s under pressure.
So he’s not under pressure now? Bloody hell

When the instruction is 'Work Hard' and we go on a 14 game run without winning. we go on a 4 game start of the season losing streak for the 1st time in 66 years I suspect the manager is clueless. We have decent players we have bad players so he has to get the best out of them such as more possession, and attackers being attackers first and not concentrate how they can help us out defensibly. Use their strengths instead of shoe horning
