Sean Dyche, the former Everton manager, has sent a brutal dig to his successor David Moyes as he landed a new Premier League job with Crystal Palace.
Dyche, who was sacked by Everton in 2019, has been out of management for a few years. However, he has now been appointed as the new manager of Crystal Palace, replacing Roy Hodgson.
In his first press conference as Palace manager, Dyche took a subtle swipe at Moyes, saying: “I’m delighted to be back in the Premier League, and I’m looking forward to working with a group of players who are hungry to succeed. Unlike some managers, I don’t just talk about winning, I actually do it.”
The comment was seen as a clear dig at Moyes, who has been under pressure at Everton due to the team’s poor performances. Dyche’s comment was interpreted as a suggestion that Moyes talks a good game but doesn’t deliver results.
Dyche’s appointment at Palace has been met with excitement from the club’s fans, who are hoping that he can bring some much-needed stability and success to the team.
As for Moyes, he will be facing increased pressure to deliver results at Everton, especially with Dyche’s comments hanging over him. The two managers will likely face each other in the near future, and it will be interesting to see how their teams match up.
