Steve Cooper sacked

I said it a million years ago CiB, if you put "unfashionable" Sean Dyche in charge of the prima donnas and the United cheque book they would conquer Europe for the 3rd time.

It will run its course as it did at Burnley and they’ll shout for his head eventually, in the ridiculous world of football.

It’s a cycle with Sean and you can only motivate for so long - good luck to him while it lasts toffees on a wave of high at minute and probably for next 12-18 months or so.

Then it won’t be enough I don’t think - he has better players at the minute than he did at Burnley - but he only wants and attracts certain types of player - interesting to see where it goes.

I just don't see it army, certainly he was operating under financial constraints at Burnley and this influenced his signings, but I don't see only a certain type of player when I look at the list of players he's signed. How would you categorise the following 10 Dyche signings ?

Michael Kightly, George Boyd, Andre Gray, David Jones, Steven Defour, Aaron Lennon, Robbie Brady, Peter Crouch, Jay Rodriguez, Josh Brownhill.

Sean Dyche was and is a very good manager. Any club would be lucky to have him

Dyche was categorised, incorrectly, as a 'certain type' of manager. He was virtually unemployable in the PL as a result. He was lucky to get the Everton job, they had run out of options and desperate times called for desperate measures. Under normal circumstances, say 3/4 years ago, he wouldn't have even been close to their short-list.

i remember ian wright saying Dyche should be considered as an England manager. after or during his tenure at the toffees perhaps he will be.

Never in a million years would the English FA appoint SD. He's just not their type.

I would imagine squeaky clean, steady Eddie from Newcastle is next on their list.

On a Radio Lancashire phone-in I predicted that 12 years ago mon ami. He ticks all the boxes for me.
