You ignored the second part of my question, so I'll repeat it: how many of them has Dyche signed...
All of them are there now, it's their current squad, hence "they have a £400m squad".

And considering Dyche was hired in October it would be bloody hard for any of them to have been signed under him.

Keep digging that hole, worm.

Hardly ignored...

Is your defence that he didn't sign them, so can't be held responsible for results?

Every new manager has a different idea of what sort of player works best for them. Round pegs-square holes.

Anyway, Dyche will do what he's supposed to do whether the players were bought before he arrived or if he was at a club - as with us - where he got to spend 10 bob while tens of millions went out the door.

I dont know why his post-Everton career is bunching up the undies of some posters - they should be on their hands and knees thanking him for saving us from the drop...which is what he UNDOUBTEDLY did.

I personally don't care too much what Dyche does next. He did a good job in that first season and a half when under real pressure.

I don't like Forest though, and would be happy if they went down. I don't get why his post-Everton career is worthy of lauding every point gained as some kind of genius-led miracle, and every defeat requires scuttling around trying to make excuses for him.

Agree about Forest. They're annoying beyond belief.

That’s not how football management works. You don’t just walk into a club and get handed your own specifically tailored squad of players.

If he can’t work with a £400m squad that finished 7th last season then he’s not a very good manager.

In fairness though mate, that was a bit of a false position for them. They were already slipping during the 2nd half of last season.

Dyche should get a tune from them, but I have a sneaky feeling he may struggle a bit. A lot of those players bought just don't suit his system.

This is a false position for them. That is not a bottom 6 squad in any way, shape or form.

No I'd agree with you but I don't think it's a top 8 squad either necessarily. Id say they're about 10th, and they miss Elanga a lot.

I still don't think they're that suited to Dyche though, and if they don't get some results quickly they're kn big trouble.
