HIGHLIGHTS
Sean Dyche, the manager of Everton, is currently under pressure and might lose his job if the team’s performance deteriorates further.
According to journalist Paul Brown, bringing in Graham Potter in place of Sean Dyche would represent a significant change in approach and further jeopardize Everton’s lack of a distinctive team identity.
Brown advises Everton to keep Dyche and give him more time to work with the new additions from the summer transfer window despite the team’s slow start. In today’s game, patience is essential.
Sean Dyche, the manager of Everton, is now under pressure, and writer Paul Brown has been talking about who might take over at Goodison Park.
Will Everton manager Sean Dyche be fired?
Dyche became the Blues’ manager in January.
after Frank Lampard was fired, but he has so far struggled to make a significant effect at the club.
A tense 1-0 victory over Bournemouth at home on the final day ensured that they avoided relegation from the Premier League, but it’s arguable that Everton shouldn’t have been there in the first place.
A similar depressing start to the current campaign can be seen in the Merseysiders’ three league losses, one draw, and back-to-back home losses. On Sunday afternoon, Arsenal will be the next opponent, and on paper, it appears to be a difficult assignment.
Although Dyche’s job doesn’t seem to be in danger right now, if things stay bad for a while, Everton’s upper management may start considering Dyche’s alternatives.
When will Graham Potter take over as manager of Everton?
However, due to their divergent views to the game, Graham Potter replacing Dyche would not make much sense, according to Brown in an interview with Give Me Sport:
“I honestly believe that switching from Dyche to Potter would involve an excessive swing from one extreme to the other. One of Everton’s major issues is that, since Moshiri took control, they have never had a single, overarching vision for who they are, what the team should stand for, and how to play or line up.
“Each time they had to fire a manager, they lurched from one extreme to another, and you had to start over, creating a team with a whole different style of play. That cannot go.
As was already said, Dyche seems to have some credit in the bank for the time being, but it makes sense that the club might be exploring other options should things not get better in the ensuing weeks and months.
Potter is a fascinating possibility for Everton to consider since, despite his disastrous tenure at Chelsea, the Englishman is still a great manager. It would be unfair to judge him too poorly there, especially given that Pep Guardiola hailed him “outstanding” earlier this year, as that role seems to be challenging for any manager.
Brown is correct that Dyche and the former Brighton manager have very different playing styles; the former prefers a possession-based style, while the latter is known for being more direct. However, if the Blues decide that Potter is the best candidate to succeed Dyche as manager, they shouldn’t be concerned about the players having to adjust to a different style.
But for now, Everton
Everton should continue with Dyche for the time being, though, since he still needs time to integrate fresh additions after the summer transfer market closes.
In the modern game, there isn’t enough tolerance for managers, but given how well he performed at Burnley, there is no reason he can’t turn things around. We shall learn much more about him throughout the course of the upcoming matches leading up to the international break in October.
