Can’t stand the man or the football he peddles , but if he can continue to deliver results like yesterday on a regular basis , I’m happy enough.
Honest question, what is the "football he peddles" and why is it so bad? Maybe it's just me but I actually like the way we've played for the most part this season we just haven't taken the chances which are down to individuals rather than the system. I think we're an effective team but it's not like we're too boring or just long ball and hope, we play when we need to play, looking at how
Branthwaite and
Tarkowski play is the easiest example, they're happy to play it around and out from the back but are equally happy to go long to Beto / DCL if there's an opening.
We've had 2 very bad performances this season, first half against Doncaster and the game against Villa, the Arsenal one wasn't great but they're also one of the best teams in the world and should be battering us. Every other game I feel like we played well and should've fairly handily come out with more points if individual mistakes didn't happen, that's not on the manager. His system creates chances but he can't go on the pitch and finish them himself.
I think going through our manager's since
Moyes I think Dyche is one of the more enjoyable to watch, in my opinion this'd be how I'd rate it: first season Martinez >
Moyes > Carlo > Dyche > everyone else. Even Ancelotti there is more who he was and the players he had like James, the rest of our managers played awful football, bar maybe Silva if he had gotten more time. Also worth noting the squads that the rest had, Dyche had no money and an almost relegated, unbalanced squad, in my opinion looking at it all in context he's doing a good job and has us playing well, especially given the quality of player he has compared to others before him.
