Sean Dyche could avoid the sack at Everton with issues still present at Goodison Park, Mark Douglas says.
The i journalist reports that The Friedkin Group want to back him until the end of the season when his contract expires, despite mounting pressure from fans.
It is said that the Friedkins have a million reasons to avoid sacking Dyche, with the squeeze it would put on the Profit and Sustainability position of the Merseyside club mentioned.
Everton crashed to a “brutal” 1-0 defeat at Bournemouth on 4 January, but the current financial position may only allow loans in the transfer window, never mind sacking Dyche too.
Sean Dyche sack update at Everton
The pressure is growing with every single day right now.
The Toffees were shockingly bad at the Vitality Stadium against Bournemouth, having zero shots on target and having Jordan Pickford to thank for it not being worse.
Dyche is doing himself no favours either, somehow saying after that the recent run would be good if wins were added – well isn’t that obvious?
That is an insult to those fans who are paying thousands of pounds to follow his awful football up and down the country, for their love of the club.
With PSR a real issue though, that may save him.
Surely, with only months left on his current contract at Goodison Park, the Friedkins can find space in the books to get rid and start their new era quickly.
Fans are quickly losing patience with everything right now, and who can blame them? No progress on the pitch and things have gone quiet again off it – action is needed now.
