Alan Myers issues Everton claim as sack pressure mounts on Sean Dyche
Alan Myers believes that the current scenario at Everton is an early test of the competence of The Friedkin Group’s ownership.
The Toffees suffered a 1-0 defeat against Bournemouth on Saturday, 4 January, and Sean Dyche is a man under pressure with his side in 16th place.
With the ownership changing hands recently, no move has been made yet to change the manager.
Myers wrote on X: “An early test of the new owners leadership at Everton, poor results, unhappy fan base and a January window to navigate, let’s see what happens.”
Everton need to part ways with Sean Dyche
Given the Toffees’ current precarious position in 16th place in the Premier League, it’s clear that the club’s new ownership under The Friedkin Group face a critical decision regarding Dyche.
Myers has highlighted this situation as an early test of the new owners’ leadership, emphasising the poor results, an unhappy fan base and the upcoming January transfer window as significant challenges.
Despite the change in ownership, no action has been taken to replace Dyche, whose tenure has not brought the desired improvement or stability.
With Everton preparing to move into their new stadium next season, the stakes are high as relegation could severely impact the club’s financial health and brand image.
The owners must recognise that continuing with Dyche poses a significant risk of relegation, which would be detrimental to their vision for the club.
That’s precisely why parting ways with Dyche appears necessary to secure the club’s Premier League status and ensure a successful transition into their new home.
