Alan Myers reveals his ‘hunch’ on Sean Dyche’s future following Everton’s loss to Man United.
Everton’s struggles deepen with a crushing 4-0 loss to Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Sean Dyche’s Everton side is winless in their last five matches, sitting just two points above the relegation zone.
The lack of creativity in attack was evident again, as Dyche’s pragmatic approach led to another goalless draw, extending their goal drought to four consecutive games.
Frustrated Everton fans have begun calling for Dyche’s dismissal.
Initially, it was reported that Everton would only consider sacking Dyche in an emergency.
However, the current situation may be approaching that threshold with a tough schedule ahead.
Despite this, club insider and Sky Sports journalist Alan Myers has shared his perspective on the manager’s future.
Alan Myers: Dyche Likely to Stay for Now
According to Myers, Dyche is expected to remain in charge for at least the next two weeks until the club’s takeover is finalized.
The journalist, highly regarded within Everton circles, believes Farhad Moshiri continues to trust the 53-year-old manager, giving him some leeway with the current ownership.
With upcoming fixtures looming, a managerial change appears impractical at this stage.
Everton’s immediate schedule includes challenging clashes against Wolves, Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea.

Wednesday, December 4: Everton vs. Wolves (20:30)

Defensive Struggles Highlight Concerns
This season, Everton’s defensive frailties are alarming.
Known for organizing strong defensive units, Dyche excelled last season, with Everton conceding the fourth-fewest goals in the league.
However, he has struggled to replicate that success, leaving the Toffees vulnerable at the back—a troubling sign given his reputation for defensive solidity.
Everton’s struggles underscore the need for immediate improvement.
Whether Dyche can turn things around or if the club will opt for a managerial change remains to be seen.
However, with tougher tests ahead, time is running out for a solution.
