Dyche doesn’t think an appeal will keep Everton alive.
Because there are three worse teams in the Premier League, Everton manager Sean Dyche maintains that he cannot afford to
subscribe to the popular belief that his team will make it through this season.
Due to a 10-point deduction for breaking financial laws, the Toffees are now in 18th place,
two points ahead of newly promoted Luton and below Burnley and Sheffield United.
Even while Everton’s performance this season has led most analysts to believe they
won’t be threatened by relegation for a third straight season, the outcome of an appeal
against that sanction might yet turn things around for the better.
But Dyche has pushed his team to merit their place in the Premier League.
It’s not quite that simple. I believe that the clubs that have emerged are anticipated by
everyone to have a difficult season “said the speaker.
“I don’t look at it and think, ‘Well, we are okay because these teams are thought to be struggling by everyone else.
‘” That’s not how I see things.
“We must, at the very least, gain the right to be above those three teams because
those are the three teams that have earned the right to be in the Premier League.
“The 10 points have clearly altered the circumstances; now, it is up to us to find strategies for
winning games because the appeal process and the possibility of receiving part
of those points back are in uncharted territory.
“I don’t think the Premier League’s challenge is limited by the deduction
of 10 points; I think it goes on forever.”
“I firmly think that there are realities—positive realities, that is—and that we are
capable of accomplishing our goals.
“I have not offered any justification for it. This is the situation as it is and the difficulty. Let’s get moving.”
Newcastle’s arrival will put Everton to the test once more due to their appalling home record this season,
which stands at one win and four points from seven games.
They will be strengthened by the expected return of striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin,
who was sidelined for two games due to a minor injury on Saturday against Nottingham Forest.
Amadou Onana’s status will also be determined after a late decision.
With only five goals scored at Goodison Park compared to double that amount away,
which has resulted in four victories and a draw, goals have been the primary problem.
When asked what the difference was between their results at home and away, Dyche responded,
“I think putting it in the net – the amount and quality of chances…
we have made at home has led to good performances – but you have to score a goal.”
