Player Valuation: £35m
On the points per game this season, Dyche's return would be about 43 points over the full season - it's just about acceptable in the context of all the problems we have
He can't be blamed for points deductions, but that run of form from December to now has been abysmal and the promising performances have turned into grim, horror shows
He's certainly better than the last couple of chancers we had here, but it's a low bar. I don't blame Dyche for how poor the tools are he has to work with, that's on Moshiri and the decisions he has made, I even accept that Dyche will probably keep us afloat in the short term, but there's practically nothing positive about Everton currently. We have a manager who plays a brand of football that makes you feel like Jimmy Hill is going to be presenting the highlights of it later on Match of The Day, we have a group of players who, for the most part, are the least technical/creative/pacey in the league, we are in debt to the tune of hundreds of millions of pounds, two points deductions deep with at least one more on the horizon, devoid of direction with no board of directors or anyone making decisions from the top and the more I think about it, the more I think that as much as Dyche is showing no signs of being someone who will ever take the club forward, he is, at least, someone who might help us survive this next 18 months or whatever.
The whole thing is soul destroying.
I sort of feel about Dyche the same way I might feel about being impaled by a scaffolding tube - it's ugly, it hurts and I don't want it there, but if I remove it too quickly, I'll probably die.
