He worked really hard for most of last season too, particularly in the second half of it.

The way he made Wilf's goal, our 4th, at Leicester showed that.

That's so unfair and not how life works. Most of us can get stuck in a rut sometimes and it can be very hard to change your mindset. His point was not only about football but his home life as well.

Not only that but the level these guys train and play at is something we can only imagine. Yes they are playing the game we love and get paid a fortune but the amount of effort needed to get as fit as they are is enormous and very painful.

Full on Brexit 442 football, most boring team in the league :sleepy: no thanks.

Well said, one of the worst teams to visit selhurst in our return, even de boers team dominated them at their ground,

I think the sun has fried your brain

Ok, so Roy is also wrong then because if he’s anything like you seem to think he is, he’s be starting for us right ? He hardly makes the bench. We’ve been paying him a fat salary for doing fvck all. He can’t be arsed to try and improve or go on loan to get some game time. He’s a lazy fvcker that adds nothing to our squad. Roy clearly agrees.

But you want to keep him.

Wow

Now you're just making stuff up.

1) please point me towards where I said he's good enough to start - which is what I assume you mean by "anything like you seem to think he is"

2) please also point me towards where I said I wanted to keep him

All I said was that anyone with any sense knows, it's not as simple as just "getting rid" of a player

Why ? We and other teams get rid of players all the time, why is he so different ?

No answers to my two questions?

The facts are that we, and other teams don't cancel players contracts "all the time". Unless you can provide me with a list of players who's contracts we've been cancelling on a regular basis?

I was there and the goal also showed why Maguire is not worth 40, let alone 80m.

But still lost. Dyche is old school to a certain extent and learnt his trade in the lower leagues as a player. When we were linked with Dyche many felt an appointment like Dyche was beneath us. (Same could be said for Ashley Barnes when we were linked 18 months back)
They (Burnley) may not necessarily be expansive in their approach but they've built a model that works and despite you saying they're dour, they still scored 15 more goals than us last season and they will almost certainly score more than us again this term. We are hardly playing progressive football under Roy and have lacked creative players in the middle for a long time.
Dyche probably has a similar mindset to Parish where he has to focus on one season at a time without laying too many foundations long term but with the tight constraints given to him that's probably more understandable. Would I want him potentially, what I didn't like was seeing our fans thinking we were billy big bollocks and we are too good for him.

I’d love Dyche here. He gets a lot out of a limited team. He makes average players better.

I didn’t say anything about cancelling contracts, I just said ‘get rid’. Maybe I should have added ‘asap’

Contracts should be more watertight on service given. If I tossed my job off and didn’t put any effort in, I’d get binned

Clearly not what he said. Not even close.

Focuses on quality long balls. Would suit Tekers...

i thought he worked hard last year without the end product. hes always had a good attitude. thats very harsh, did you even watch the games Ayew played last year? nonsense.

I think he is a pragmatist. He works with what he has. I love the way his teams defend... he gets a tune out of Woods and ***** Barnes. He plays to the players strengths. He has got Burnley up... kept them up and established them as a prem team. All with a shitty squad

What Dyche has done on his budget is amazing. On top of that he has brought through some young players over the years, all of which generally get sold. I am not a fan of his, but he would make a decent Palace manager, imo.

Although I agree with the principal he's currently got approx. 150 weeks left on his contract x £55,000 week = £8,250,000 we would have to pay him to get rid.

No easy way out of that.

******* hell. The world has gone mad.
