Sean Dyche

[MikeH72]

Nah I think it's more of a case he's thought "crap, I've just been shown up as not being able to work with talented players, best not show it again so soon"

The pressure would certainly be on to keep a £850m squad in the division with several of their key players due back soon. It’s a shame he doesn’t back a manager of his own ability to do that, given how much he likes to talk himself up.

 

[Charro]

He wants a short term role.

He just wants the eighteen months contract so he gets the pay out when he’s sacked in the summer which is probably fair enough.

He’ll know if they stay up he won’t last into the new season.

Genuinely think he’d bottle taking the Spurs job, he couldn’t get away with the underdog gaslighting gimmick. People didn’t buy it at Forest so they certainly wouldn’t at Spurs, nor would the massive egos on those players.

 

[Simon Buttle]

No way those Spurs players are having Dyche, they would laugh him out of the dressing room.

Dyche turning down Champions League teams.

What a world.

He likes to bully players that he thinks are beneath him, he’s not going to walk into a dressing room full of players who have achieved more than he could ever dream of in the game and start throwing his weight around. He’ll be back soon, at West Brom or Leicester.

Dyche turning down Champions League teams.

What a world.

I think he probably knows Spurs are a lost cause and even this is beyond him and if/when it does he doesn't want to be seen as 'that guy' who couldn't save them.

Maybe he could do a Bielsa and tell them he'll manage the academy while someone else is the fall guy in a relegation fight and he'll come in and manage the senior team in the summer

Dyche turning down Champions League teams.

What a world.

Imagine he went in and won the Champions League.

Id pay for a live stream on the Forest owner if Nuno/West Ham and Dyche/Spurs relegate Forest.

 

[ToffeeScot]

Said the other day Dyche has snubbed them, that report seems to reaffirm reason why;

• The 54-year-old is nevertheless said to be reluctant to take on a short-term role

I would of thought it would be because if he takes Spurs down it would be the end of his career. He still has just about enough gaslighting in him to get another PL job.

 

[davek]

I think Bielsa would have been a mess here.
His small squads and massive intensive press approach, starts off well but gradually runs your player into the ground.
We were failing off the field to much for what he would have wanted to change on the field..

Too much of a hipster appointment.

I hate to go all Cloughian, but football really is very simple: get as many quality players as you can and get them to pass it to each other.

 

[Neiler]

Id pay for a live stream on the Forest owner if Nuno/West Ham and Dyche/Spurs relegate Forest.

Wouldn't be a safe chicken wing in the house!

Look at how Glasner mouthed off at Palace, Maresca at Chelsea, the implosion Slot was having earlier this season with Salah throwing his toys out the pram, Nuno early season with Nottingham Forest, Postecoglou later on. Potter aged about two decades in half a season at West Ham.
That was all child’s play in comparison to what was going on at Everton at the time, a mild puff of wind against the absolute cyclone that was engulfing us. But people didn’t like that he scratched his head during press conferences so I guess that undoes giving him any credit for literally facing off to all that pressure for 2 years without exploding at any point. Had he failed it was the end of an institution of English football, certain administration, probable liquidation, people losing jobs, wages not getting paid, more points deductions the next season and perhaps another relegation, fire sale of all player assets. Forever remembered as the manager who took Everton down.

He risked his reputation for all of that on a club whose only fit strikers were Neil Maupay and Ellis Simms.

That's the very point that his detractors cant get their heads around: it takes strength and courage for a manager to step aside when they know it'd be for the better of the organisation if they did.

There isn't a man who'd have come through the crucible of those first two seasons he had here and not be almost broken by it. He broke in the end.

Sounds dramatic and I'm not suggesting he was a basket case or anything, but the pressure finally got to him. He was cooked.

I continue to scratch my head at the venom aimed at him by some Everton supporters. Anyone who thinks that way I'd immediately class them as divvies...and they are too. Know-nothing divvies.

Stand firm Dyche. Don't take it.
