I think Piroe and Gyokores could play as 9s, from the bits I've seen.

But yes, what we do with Doucoure becomes interesting. But I suppose after this season, we see the value in needing back up options.
Yeah they could both play there, but it isn't their natural position and, even when they are the designated CF, they both drop really deep. Could be problematic in Dycheball with the ball being launched over our midfielders' heads.

Take it you don't like Dyche. Think that is a harsh comment seeing as he created more attacking scenarios than Lampard and Benitez. We have to give Dyche his platform to see if he will progress the club......he certainly did last season

Nope. Don't like him at all. Our fans vastly overstate his abilities.

The attacking scenarios you talk of were still without discernable patterns of play - it's just getting the ball into the box. The fact that he was preceeded by Lampard and Benitez should not excuse the fact he is a poor manager.

He came in and got our players fit and sorted the mentality out, fair play, but I think most people could do that if that was their sole focus. He didn't sort our defence and organisation out, is one of the most negative managers I have ever seen for substitutions and lives upto the stereotype of him by preferring to play useless senior pros over younger players who might still improve.

We only played well twice under him - Arsenal and Brighton.

The mad thing is that the three sides that went down were so bad that if Dyche hadn't have been so infuriating (making no subs when needed, continuing to play Michael Keane, refusing to use Mina, consistently using Maupay, preferring out of position CBs over Patterson until forced to use him etc.) we could have been safe weeks before the end of the season.

The thought of him having a say on our recruitment alongside Calamity Kev and Chairman Bill absolutely terrifies me. Our only model to get out of this cycle is to invest in and play talented young players and move them on. Not get journeymen footballers and we know which Dyche will prefer.

Let’s see how he does, but going off his 10yrs at Burnley im not sure he’s changing. I think the fans will get bored very quickly of watching mediocre teams like Bournemouth, Brentford, Fulham coming to goodison and dominating the ball. And us trying to hang in for dear life to 1-0 or 1-1
 
I rate gnonto will depend on what price but if we can get him at a good price would be a good deal to make. I see it similar to rich keep him here then look to sell him on for profit
For me it's about optimizing our limited funds. I agree that we could potentially make profit on him as he's young with some talent. However, we need goals now in order to survive. No profit margin will be greater on a player than the value of being in the premier league.

Rubbish. Our fast counter attacking was on the floor, guess you are thinking of corners and free kicks. With a fit first team he plays decent stuff. Not foreign though which seems to put people off. He also saved Mina for the critical games, you may have forgotten but good though he is, he was even worse than James for being injured.

Nah. You're talking rubbish mate. There is zero evidence of Dyche playing good stuff - bar one goal his Burnley side scored against an Everton team averse to tackling.

We were horrible in possession - as were his Burnley side. Set pieces, although better than previous, were still awful.

The foreign shouts are so lazy it's not even worth getting into.

And if you think Dyche was 'saving' Mina, you've genuinely lost the plot. He put him back in when he realised that Michael Keane was going to relegate us - about 5 games later than everyone else.

You may he happy with continued low standards at this club - I'm fed up with it.
