Dyche has done a terrific job with us no doubt, but I think you would need to give him time as fans before you made a judgement. When he first joined us he focused solely on the defence, the football became a lot worse but results gradually improved. He hasn't had many "flair" players to utilise at Burnley, and any that he's bought haven't really featured that often (but there aren't many) this has meant that we've struggled to impact in the final third, and it's difficult to see Wether it's how he operates or if it's how he operates within our budget. We haven't seen him with players like Zaha though, they could be just what he needs to make his teams more effective going forwards.Sarf wrote:Hi, Palace fan here, just seeing what you think of the Dyche rumours.
First of all I think Dyche is a fantastic manager and he would be a pretty good fit for us, but I don't see it. The links have come from our historic appointments and yeah historically Dyche would be exactly the type of manager Parish would be after. However historically we've made these types of appointment mid season. Parish now has the opportunity to appointment before preseason and I reckon this new situation will be (hopefully) reflected in the appointment.
As far as the odds have done, a few days ago we were nailed on for Monk, Moyes, Hodgson and SIlva so shows what good indications those are. I believe the same person reporting what Dyche has apparently said was the same person that said we were in for Silva, which we quite clearly weren't as when we were apparently talking to Silva in London, Parish was in Mallorca talking to Zaha.
(as a slight aside, I'm interested in were Parish gets his "difficult to deal with" persona comes from? Also, I wouldn't say we're particularly trigger happy with our managers, only Pardew and Burley have been sacked, Holloway mutual consent and Warnock doesn't count...the rest left)
He definitely offers stability, but I don't think he will offer much short term success. Can you deal with that?
