成人快手 Sport Chief Football writer, Phil McNulty has been answering fan questions on all things Premier League.

@win_n10 on X asked: Sean Dyche has never commanded critical acclaim for his no-nonsense post-war austerity football but Evertonians find themselves asking if his wretched anti-football has finally hit the buffers. Can he turn it around or is he a dead man walking?

Phil answered: I get the real sense of discontent from Everton fans, not just about results but the style of football under Sean Dyche.

I fear ambition will be limited to staying up this season as relegation ahead of going into that magnificent new stadium is unthinkable. This is why, unless Everton are plunged into a dire emergency, I think Dyche will stay in charge as he has charted a course to safety before.

I do not see him taking Everton into Bramley Moore Dock as history tells us billionaires such as prospective new owner Dan Friedkin want their own manager in charge and will harbour wider ambitions than simply safety.

I do not see Dyche, who deserves respect for ensuring Everton鈥檚 safety in the last couple of seasons, as manager beyond the end of this season.
