How do I vote for all of the options?

Yeah, we finished 12th and 10th, then nearly went bust soon after.

Dyche picks the team he thinks is best. Sometimes his opinion is different to yours. All of your other arguments are trying to suggest something else. Sometimes my opinion is different to Dyche's too. He makes mistakes. I would make more.

Where does the idea that Dyche listens to the fans for team selection (Mina, then Branthwaite, over Keane) come from!?

The comparison here is with a player brought in for nearly £20M, not a player from the 21s. He was mom in his first game (according to GOT). O'Brien has been nowhere near

Dyche dropped Keane for Branthwaite last season. Branthwaite had made 10 PL appearances at that point.

We got 12 more points than the team in 17th last season. 8 more than 40 points.

We won last weekend

I don't think anyone would disagree that the management was the problem. 94-95 was madness too. I'll take that next season though.

98 had better players than I remember to be fair. 94 was such madness that I can't even try to analyse it. We're better now though

We were a terrible team in 94 and 98

No need to panic yet. Just need to make sure we get three more points than Leeds do until May 12th and we're in with a decent chance. 5 points not inconceivable in those 3 games and we could be out of the relegation zone with a game in hand.

But signing only under 24's (or something approximating to this strategy) is no longer a football hipster view but the prevailing strategy at the majority of successful European clubs.

Lewis Dobbin recently (http://www.secretscout.co.uk/academy-life-lewis-dobbin/) mentioned how hard he found the jump from 18s to 23s. It might be harder than some imagine, or it might just be down to the player. Would be good to see Dobbin and Simms working well together. Simms needs to learn...

This seems very unlikely. Might be possible they go with these 5 and Gibson covering left back (especially if they flip last season's 442/352 hybrid around, with a new rb and maybe Iwobi on the left). Loans and incomings seem like the plan though. Keane will get minutes from the bench at least.

You must have a completely different recollection of life before Kenwright than I do.

But Ancelotti has played him (and left him on) almost every time he's had a decision. Including playing him off the left in what seems to be (and had Iwobi quoted in the Echo as saying was the only position they were training for) the only position Iwobi and Bernard can/will play in a 442...

I remember being a big fan back then. Think he had a great season the year after when we finshed in the top half for the only time in the decade. Lots of power, but he could pass too.

They were the two main components of our 'Dogs of War' moniker, so can't be thought of as 'unsung'. Was just looking back on that Cup Final line-up yesterday: 4 centre backs, 2 workhorses in midfield plus Hinchcliffe, Rideout up front. No wonder we bullied Utd!

I'd want Baines to be criticising the tactics here. Surely that's one of the main benefits of having 'senior pros'?
