Yeah can’t see him deviating from what we are seeing he ain’t that type of coach

12 matches without a win. Next match: "Let's go again boys. You know what to do"

Hardly any wonder the players look like they might have given up on him.

Harrison and McNeil are so bad that it's got to be tactical at this point. I don't rate Harrison at all but at least earlier in the season he was getting some goal involvements and the odd cross. Can't remember a single thing he's done in about two months.

Nah, Harrison is genuinely rubbish.

Even when we were playing well he was largely anonymous.

McNeil has a lot more to offer but is wasted out wide. Move him inside.

A lot who are playing rubbish are just rubbish.

I just want us to play 4-2-3-1, that would get Harrison and McNeil in dangerous positions and give us some form of attacking option.

Instead we play 4-4-1-1 but effectively with McNeil playing LWB and Harrison trying to provide the width but with no full back supporting.

Again not defending him but you know the squad is awful when the suggestions are playing out of form/not very good players out of position

There is no flexibility with him at all the players are sick of running like lunatics without the ball he never tries anything like trying dobbin for 10/15 minutes instead of Harrison trying McNeil inside makes a lot of sense but won’t happen he is too rigid and stubborn and should be sacked

Limp to survival hopefully and start again with someone new in the summer I suppose. All a bit pointless though

His comment about having 1 day was regarding some of the players who had been away on international duty.

Nah fuck that as an excuse, bin the cunt off just for saying that

We had about 3 starters on international duty and none of them were attacking players

Probably had the fewest players on international duty in the league as well. Was pathetic from him that.

I dont expect any tactical changes. Doesn't have it in him, really has two ways of playing - low low block, long ball to frocks type stuff, or higher press and win it back high up the pitch - and being good at set pieces.

The problem is our pressing isn't winning us the ball high up the pitch anymore, and not often in dangerous positions. He should drop Garner and tell Gana to go super press as he does, we'd create more from his pressing than Garner does with his passing (not much).

Other than Gana for Garner there are not many changes you can make. Beto for DCL probably, Myko back from illness I'd assume so drop him in for Godfrey.

I dont see how you can make any other changes - Dobbin is bad, Gomes is bad, Chermiti is bad, Young is bad, this squad is not good at all.

Danjuma comes back you'd probably want to get him on the pitch anywhere to get someone with some skills on the pitch.

This squad is bad, Dyche is a limited manager. And even though I think we'll survive, we are likely to be even worse next season when we're forced to sell one or both of Branthwaite and Onana and replace them with Peanuts.

Haven't had good recruitment, Thelwell seems ok but Beto looks a big miss to me, and I'm not sure he's really done well. I suppose if Onana was him then that's a good sign - will need a few more like that but at a lower price to turn this ship around.

I was just thinking this. Have Garner right back, Onana and Gana sitting and McNeil and Harrison further up.

Only way it will happen though, is if we get a new manager and that ain’t gonna happen with our finances

I’d love to see a midfield that doesn’t feature Garner right about now.

If Gana is fit and not being picked it's an absolute crime

It's hard to fathom that he could stay if we lose tonight and don't beat Burnley.

I'd fully expect that to be the case but it's a bit mad if it happens.

I’d say he will be here no matter what happens it’s easy for him blame everything going on around the club for the shite on the pitch ignoring the fact he is a very limited poor throw back coach
