The daft thing is, if he’d stuck with the 85 minutes we did well in that game we’d likely be nowhere near the bottom now. It was the end few minutes that were the anomaly not what went before.Big Nevs Vaz wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 5:40 pm I have huge respect for what he achieved last season.
This season he was clearly spooked by Bournemouth at home and Villa away. His response has been to basically paralyse us as an attacking force so we don’t ship goals when we lose the ball in transition. He can’t appear to get beyond that in any way. That will be his downfall.
Dyche - HE'S GONE

Re: Dyche
He's played there his whole career and has goals and assists coming out of his arse in that position

Re: Dyche
He was fine when he thought he was running the gaff. Once the takeover had a semblance of truth his head fell off.

Re: Dyche
All the good arguments for him being removed are diluted by this nonsense. Did well two seasons running regressed while we are on the verge of becoming a more desirable club. The thanks for nothing and he ruined burnley nonsense makes us seem delusional

Re: Dyche
Yeah, I’d like the idea of the old Spurs 4222 under Pochettino, but they had slightly better attacking width than Mykolenko and a geriatric Ashley Young. Do think Lindstrom and Ndiaye would suit it, though.
Re: Dyche
As more of an SS than an AM / AP though.
Call me crazy but I'd like to see our main creative role be played by someone who can actually slip a clever through ball in to a striker.
If we're playing a 10 I'd want them to be a Maddison / Grielish (when played central) type in a team that kept possession and used it well, not just a Doucoure type of role that's all hustle and bustle without any creativity.

I think the end was the Bournemouth collapse, and since then he went from conservative to utter fascist.

Re: Dyche
Agreed. I’ve been a bit surprised at just how negative the reaction has been. He must see that we have to offer more going forward. As others have said it’s all aimless. No cohesive press this season, no plan to move from back to front other than a big aimless punt. Even the set piece threat that we had has largely gone now. The deliveries were abysmal today.
Re: Dyche
Plenty of evidence from his abundance of assists through his career he can slip a ball through. Exceptionally close control and agile. Played there many times in his career.AjaxAndy wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 5:55 pm As more of an SS than an AM / AP though.

What's true is he's barely, if ever, played out wide before joining us.
Re: Dyche
Wonder how many times he's taken Lindstrom or Harrison off at half time this season? Must be doing wonders for their confidence! (Harrison deserved it last match like)
Re: Dyche
I just don't see it mate, fair enough if you do. I like him a lot as a player but I want us to play better football and for that to happen imo you need a genuinely creative passer in there which I don't see Ndaiye ever doing. Another example would be Odegaard, not a dribble machine, a very creative passer who makes things tick in the final third.
I also think he's really good out wide on the left, happy to keep him there but with a different manager and style of play.
Re: Dyche
My first thought when I saw the subs was how he's brought in Lindstrom because Harrison has been so bad and then hooked him at half time meaning his confidence will plummet, and then Dyche will play him again next match and wonder why he plays poorly.
Maddening isn't it?
Also I didn't think Lindstrom was all that bad, first 10 and last 5 or so he was probably out best player. Actually looked like he wanted to make something happen when he eventually got the ball.
Re: Dyche
This is as bad as management gets.
He’s ruined both of them with the constant hooking at half time.
He hasn’t got a clue how to use the attacking players we have.
