Phil McNulty Q&A
Chris Gill: It’s never
ending misery for Everton fans. How long has Dyche got? Is there actually a
manager on the planet who can salvage this wretched football club?
Hello, Chris. Everton
have made it clear Sean Dyche still has the support of the club’s hierarchy
behind the scenes and at the moment it does not look as if anyone has the power
or is inclined to make a managerial change even if they wanted to, that is even
before you get to the financial implications of such a decision.
Dyche did a fine job
last season after another terrible start but this has been worse and the
manager needs to find solutions fast.
The problem will come if
Everton keep losing. Dyche’s big selling point in the past we his ability to
produce sides that were hard to score against, as Everton were last season.
This season they have conceded 13 goals in four league games, twice losing 2-0
leads. They are soft and the continued presence of Ashley Young and Michael
Keane demonstrates the paucity of resources.
Everton simply cannot
afford to get relegated with the new stadium coming next season, which will
focus minds, and there is a sense of inevitability that if new owners comes in,
they will want their own manager.
Dyche is into the final
season of his contract with no indication he will be offered a new deal, which
suggests change will come eventually, even if it is for the start of next
season.
As for the manager who
can save Everton….can I have a long think about that one?
