Everton fans, after such a crushing defeat, have unsurprisingly made Sean Dyche their lightning rod for criticism.
And that is not without justification as well.
The 53-year-old’s woeful game management was brutally exposed again, as Bournemouth’s energetic injection of substitutes changed the match.
Meanwhile, the tired Toffees just wilted.
Questions about his future were arising before that result, but have only intensified after they threw away their two-goal lead in just nine minutes.
Now, they are louder than ever.
Alan Myers confirms Everton’s ownership situation
Just hours after Alan Myers confirmed how Everton’s board feel about Dyche, he has now sought to reveal whether or not there is even an ownership team in place to make a sacking should things become too untenable with Sean Dyche.
And, after such an emotionally devastating match yesterday, that possibility was certainly floated around Goodison Park.
However, with Farhad Moshiri completely unbothered about the future of the Toffees, and John Textor trying to takeover Everton, the slow and painstaking manner of this process means wholesale changes are unlikely.
Yet, Myers has now claimed: ‘There is 100% people there to make decisions, no idea if they would or should tbh, but definitely an ability to do that, the ownership process has a way to run yet, decisions get made everyday, management issues are no different.’
Sean Dyche’s Everton future is on even thinner ice
It’s quite sad that just days after Graeme Bailey exclusively told Everton.News that Sean Dyche was on thin ice at Everton that a game like this should come about.
But, realistically, he has nobody to blame but himself.
His players put on an almighty display of cowardice, and for that, they deserve to be lambasted. But all of that turmoil and unrest could have been so easily avoided had he just made the correct substitutions at the right time.
His ability to enforce these changes has been a longstanding issue of his throughout his tenure at Goodison Park.
On Saturday, he failed to see the floundering midfield before him, and in the end, it left the backline woefully exposed.
What’s most frustrating is that this has happened before and he has not learned from his mistakes. Will anything change now? That’s unlikely.
This insane approach will not win him any fans over the Premier League season.
