Dyche and his Triassic cohorts like Pardew, Bruce and Allardyce were washed up years ago. They have been clinging on for dear life like 80 year old rock stars. Time to retire to Sandbanks and spend the cash.

Yes. Wilder and Dyche are similar in many ways.  I agree they know all about building a solid defence and a fighting spirit. Its the creative side where they don't have much of a clue despite all their experience in the English game. I would also question whether they know what working within a budget is. Everton have a budget we could only dream about, and still they managed just 15 goals in 19 games under Dyche this season. And Sheff Utd brought on a £23million striker against us, who looked pretty hopeless whenever I've seen him.

I think you need to go research Everton's PSR issues and see why they had to do that Dobbin dodgy swap. He has had peanuts there compared to his predecessors under Moshiri and Usmanov (I think he is the Russian but could have got the name wrong but was at Arsenal before the one I am referring to).

Yes Wilder has wasted Millions Brewster and McBurnie but so did sexy football slav, and I think I don't need to name them.

Don't just post half a story to suit your own agenda.

Can't see them announcing anything on a Sunday
Hope they do though

I think the news always say tomorrow (could be 20h though) is the most depressing day of the year as it when everyone gets their credit card bills etc, etc after the Christmas.

So, it will probably be announced then.

Found this piece analysing his playing style at Young Boys.


https://totalfootballanalysis.com/team-analysis/young-boys-202223-their-tactics-under-raphael-wicky-scout-report-tactical-analysis-tactics

It's quite a long piece (which is why I haven't posted in full) but makes interesting reading.

You can’t compare that boring gravel voice with Sexy Slav, surely!? Slav gave us exciting and entertaining football and signed Perreira, Grady, Krovonvic, Grant and most importantly he delivered Promotion. He tried and did play the right way for most of his tenure and we all loved it. Yes he made some poor signings, all managers do. Not sure they were all down to him though, if you say Dyche has his hands tied then Slav was imprisoned in a dark cell by comparison.

Would take either Slaven or Dyche right now, but then what do I know I'd take SGM back !!!

One thing you can say about the Swiss is that they are punctual. German Rail get ticked off by Swiss Rail for not being punctual enough! So wow betide any players turning up late for training!

Yes he does.

Yeah it is Everton, he was at West Ham with Moyes.

Not sure why people think there's an issue  with Wicky just because nothing has been announced yet.
A case of 2+2 =5 I reckon.

This is Albion, it's always the same. I'd given up on Heggem signing as it dragged on and on and on. Just as I'd given up hope he was announced.
