Sad sad man our home form is putrid this season ram keeps saying without the penalty we would be 12 in the league I said if we could beat the mighty Luton Fulham palace or wolves at home we could be higher but how dare I criticise your man
We could be, we could also be dead and buried if we didn’t pick up results away from home.
I don’t think it is in any way reasonable to criticise dyche for us not being 7th/8th.

So why then ram does he not set us up at home the same as away press hard win the ball back high up the pitch play your best players ffs
I don’t think we set up more negativity at home.
It’s just the way we play suits playing away from home and not so much at Goodison.
It’s all about exploiting space and that’s easier to do away from home when teams are more expansive and pressured by the crowd to open up.

Posted this in the DCL thread too but think it's valid here. Not sure what's worse, Pickford's weak line to Dom or Doucoure having no lines at all.
You could see Doucourè midway through the second half throwing his hands into the air in frustration and smacking his sides.
Would have thought we'd have many more goals from this method over the season given all the pieces of the puzzle suggest it'd be our strength. Underutilised.

Wonder what our xG(set piece) vs Actual is.

Not sure but I think we've done well from set pieces? Only arsenal scored more I think.

Yeah I wasn't sure if we actually had done well, or if it was that we'd just not scored many goals in total so relatively set pieces seemed more significant.
We definitely are well suited to score this way. And I'm not sure too many other teams do, or are. Brentford maybe Arsenal as you say.

Can't wait til he's out the club with the rest of the bang average shite. Fuck off.
Not won in 9 now. Feels like we could have won about half of them. He's got to be proactive. Run on the fucking pitch jam his hand up their arse and use them like glove puppets to score the chances. Dyche out
