For me the problem is lack of squad rotation.
We all thought that we built a good squad in the summer and most of us still do so why are we not using it more?
We have 2 quality players in my opinion for every position but too many are being under used.
In fairness yesterday McAtee, Bakwa, Wood, Aina, Zinchenko were all out. Doesn't leave tons of options for rotation.
That said he could've gone with Yates, Dominguez, Hutchinson, Kalimuendo/Taiwo still. As I mentioned on the other thread, this is a big learning curve for Dyche too the Euro games and particularly with his style being to run more than the other teams. Hopefully this has taught him that he will have to rotate around the Euro games at least a bit if he wants us to be able to play the way he'd like, so that will hopefully be a good lesson.
I do agree though we need to get the likes of Kalimuendo, Hutchinson, Bakwa, Dominguez, McAtee going (when available).
Said in Bournemouth thread, Kalimuendo could have gotten a good 20-25 mins in that game by taking MGW off and letting him work with T.
That seems to be the block to rotation ATM, the unwillingness to haul MGW
