Branthwaite has been a stalwart at the back for Everton in recent time.
This has warranted serious transfer interest as Branthwaite held talks with Man United but it is looking likely the centre-back will stay.
The main reason is that Ruben Amorim is looking at alternatives to Branthwaite, as it provides the Toffees with a real boost.
With his future looking fairly clear, Branthwaite has commented on the changes that have happened since Dyche departed.
What Branthwaite said in criticism of Sean Dyche’s Everton spell
The defender has become a fan favourite and fans will hope his future is definitely confirmed to be at Everton.
He’s added to his favoritism at the club after Branthwaite rallied the Everton players ahead of Liverpool.
In a week where the the 22-year-old has put his voice out there to the media, Branthwaite made a subtle dig to Dyche after Everton’s defeat to Bournemouth.
“I think we have been on a good run. It is disappointing, but we will take belief from the second-half performance and take it into the next game,” Branthwaite said.
“Like I say, you take the positives out of the second-half.
“We created lots of chances, and that is something we weren’t doing a few months ago, creating chances to score.”

The two seemed to have a frosty reception between each other whilst at the club.
Although Branthwaite did breakthrough properly under David Moyes’ predecessor, Dyche was not afraid to criticise the defender.
Dyche berated Branthwaite after ducking for a cross which turned out to be his final game in charge for Everton against Bournemouth.
So in the end it was Branthwaite who had the last laugh, and recent comments suggest he couldn’t be happier with Moyes at the helm.
