Dyche In/Out
Let's see if the new manager plays any of the summer signings shall we. If not that's four managers who don't rate them.

I wasn't saying he was a good manager. I was saying that's 3 managers who didn't rate the summer signings so let's see what the fourth does and if he doesn't rate or play them then I think we are blaming the wrong person.

I personally would be now asking any new manager that comes in are they happy to work in the championship. The first person I would ask is Enzo Maresca. If forest are so adamant they want a progressive style with possession then he fits the bill.

We can ask... But who in their right mind would take us on now. We look like a basket case club and historically those clubs are punished. The best we can hope for is that a new manager bounce is enough to carry us to safety. But to do that we need to actually score a goal and seem pretty incapable of that at times.

I think if we get the right coach who can set us up to use our strengths then we will score more goals. We’ve proved we can score in games v Liverpool, Spurs, Brentford etc.

Yes it's been obvious for a while.

His treatment of Bakwa, McAtee and Taiwo to name just 3 has been disgraceful.

Set pieces and corners last night were shocking, we needed someone to unlock a defence and Mcatee can do that but was completely ignored. Nothing else was working so why not bring him on? He was very good in his last appearance.

So glad he has gone.

I was doing my best to hide it but I couldn't stand the bloke (Dyche).

Only surprise was he didn't bring Yates or Dominguez on!

Sniff a valid point but as of yet we have no proof that those players can do that. 3 managers now have looked at them and went no. So we can't say they can do it until they actually do it and the fact 3 managers who needed someone to step up haven't trusted them says to me they might not be as good as we wanted to believe. Players always become better in fans eyes when they don't play.

Those seeds were planted in May after the Leicester game and we have been regularly feeding them fresh fertiliser ever since.

I was at the game, and it was terrible.

So much for sleeping on a decision and then making a considered decision in the cold light of the day.

Not saying he should not have gone but not sure what a change of manager will do, apart from keeping MGW happy.

“ Nottingham Forest had 62.9% possession against Wolves on Wednesday evening – it’s the 10th time in the Premier League that a side managed by Sean Dyche has had at least 60% of the ball,
He hasn't won a single one of those games (D4 L6)”

That sums up his approach. No plan B, no idea how to break a team down. If the only tool you have is a hammer…

No manager is giving minutes to Taiwo, in fact Dyche was criticised when he did before he scored!

Bakwa has been awful when given minutes, although I agree it was weird both Mcatee and Taiwo do well and then get rewarded with no minutes. Whereas bizarrely John Victor was rewarded for being there with a few costly starts for no obvious reason. IMO easily Dyche's worst mistake.
