The Now-Irrelevant 2024/25 Relegation Battle (Without Everton!)

[MACCA75]

Wonder what Omari Hutchinson would look like in Dycheball.

Given far more licence to drift around the pitch than Ndiaye or Lindstrom have.

Did suggest we try and sign him in the summer but we went for a 4th choice centre half instead.

Tony Cascarino a few weeks back in the Times called Everton the most "basic" team in the premier league.

It's painful but he's right isn't he. Just long punts towards corners to turn defenders constantly. Sometimes it works, many other times it dosen't from a style that was last frequently used 15 years ago.

Another pundit described our football as “ being footy from a bygone era “.

Yet not one of them seems willing to openly question Dyche’s tactics or lack of them.

Not the same leadership at the club now as when they won those trophies. Obviously.

They won the FA cup with Rodgers, the guy you are saying the board dropped the ball with. They'd have done much better with Dyche, presumably.

i bet the dyche favorites don’t get near the side when he’s legged

Apart from a scrappy loss to Southampton, I've almost forgotten what it's like to lose...and we'll beat Brentford too.

Good shout (again).

 

[Drico]

The same board that kept Rodgers whilst he sent them down, have a PS&R charge waiting for them if they go down, hired Dean Smith when Rodgers was eventually fired, then hired their local rivals manager only to fire him 12 games in when not even in the relegation zone?

They’re as scattergun as anyone else in the bottom half

Yes, all true, but it's a functioning board - even if it governs dysfunctionally.

We don't have ANY board. We are a holding position.

How else to explain the continued employment of a manager who has now failed. Utterly.

[MikeH72]

I don't remember ever saying that.

I seem to remember saying he was good, and pre all his injuries he was. One of them.

Maybe the people who told me we would be getting relegated the last 3 seasons should give up? Just an idea eh?

You said he was a better goalscorer than Harry Kane

 

[Toffeeslam]

Is Broha ever going to play for us??

Probably not

Broja might though

Btw Ipswich are attacking Man Utd and trying to win the game, despite United spending loads and Ipswich haven’t a squad full of lower league players.
