Not a housing thread for once, but similarities to our season in 00/01.
Dyche is doing, and has done a sterling job there.

Dyche is doing a very good job there indeed. I suspect a 'bigger' club might come in for him next summer. |  |

There were 'news' stories earlier this season that Arsenal viewed him as a successor to Wenger.. Though not sure how accurate that is, though would love it to be true, he certainly deserves a chance at one of the bigger clubs.
The issue for him will be his lack of European football experience... Or at least that's what is usually trotted out when the 'big' clubs go for a more headline grabbing name. |  | | |

He's not fashionable enough for the top four, needs a Tim Sherwood Gilet to get an Interview.
Although, out of the top clubs you can only see vacancies at potentially Arsenal and Spurs (If Poch gets one of the spanish top two gigs) | |

He's doing a great job, although we had an amazing season whilst playing champagne football and Burnley are more akin to Lambrini. Doesn't take away from the scale of their achievement though. |  |

I suppose it would depend on who he see's as a step up from Burnley, if they carry on having a good season.
I was surprised Everton never went for him, but could equally see him at somewhere like Newcastle or Southampton, should they ever look to get a new manager. | |

Yes he is doing a brilliant job, but, if Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs win tonight they will drop back to 7th place and they have Brighton, Spurs, Man U, Huddersfield, Liverpool and Man City coming up. So they may just drop back a bit in the next few weeks. But still a great season for them. |  | | |

Yep, quite a different approach to the one we had. I can't see the likes of Arsenal going for him. Not unless they want a return to the George Graham days.
Having a good season so far though. |  |

I would say Burnley's style of football is a little bit better than in previous seasons. Also what Sean Dyche is doing at Turf Moor shows what can be achieved. Yes I appreciate that Burnley have a lot of money at their disposal compared to us, but in comparison to what they are up against 4th in the Premier League what they have achieved so far is pretty spectacular.
Have a look at their defensive record, think they have only conceded 12 goals in 17 games. Southgate needs to have a look at their defence for future England squads, starting with Nick Pope. He has made a real difference since he has come in and replaced Tom Heaton in goal. That's no fluke, he has now performed over a series of games and showed he can deliver at that level. | |

Wouldn't mind him getting the England job personally when Southgate inevitably flops at the World Cup. |  |

You confuse me sometimes. Dyche - and Ranieri a couple of seasons ago - have demonstrated that if you want to compete with inferior resources the way to do it is to be very organised, to play pragmatically and to target only players who will suit your system. Pulis has been a master of this too over the years, although without the same big success of competing for the top 4. Yet you criticise Mick for his style of football constantly and suggest that we could be more competitive and play good football despite our budget. The evidence of sides like Burnley is that the way to overperform is to play precisely the kind of football that you've criticised Mick for and yet you're praising Burnley. I don't get it. | |

Burnley are very good going forward now. Defour in particular is top quality. They hit Wood in the channels rather than up the middle and Hendricks is also a good footballer. |  |

No confusion. I have watched Burnley enough this season to see that their style of play is not solely long ball, they actually try and play decent stuff at times. Leicester City are never in the same bracket as us or Burnley they were actually very exciting to watch under Ranieri. Yes they would play balls in the channels for Vardy to chase, but the way they would break with purpose was frightening and entertaining.
If you are comparing MM with Pulis, now that is very much a like for like comparison. I don't think I have 'ever' praised Pulis for his good football and I don't think I ever will. I respect him for what he has achieved and I do with MM, but for what is served up on the pitch it is certainly not my cup of tea as you well know Herbivore. | |

We are much more like Leicester this season than we are like a Pulis side to be fair. And neither Burnley or Leicester play(ed) the kind of progressive football you've been calling for, it's organised and hard working fare for the most part. | |

Interesting. I distinctly remember George Burley being quoted with very short odds as a possible successor to Alex Ferguson at United around our 2000/01 season... |  |

Leicester City had (and still do) blistering pace when they attack, we don’t and they could pass the ball. I think you’re confusing lumping aimlessly to purposeful passing. Herbivore we are nothing like the Foxes, if only we were. Like I said previously, look at Tony Pulis’ sides and then you have your comparison. We are more like WBA, dull and lacking imagination. | |

That’s great, but with one of the worst defensive records. Not really going to get that far. Look at what the decent sides have done to us this season, apart from Derby County. | |

The second top scorers in the league are 'dull and lacking imagination'? How did we score all those goals then? Sorry mate, but you're all over the place on where you see us imo. I see you're now criticising our defensive record, and rightly so, but the only reason we're doing well is our ability to out score the opposition which you don't do by being dull and aimlessly lumping it forward. Last season called, it wants your opinion of it back. | |

Herbivore you really do come out with some strange stuff. I understand you go and watch us play, do you have your eyes closed, imagine what is happening on the pitch and then believe that actually occured? What I suggest is you actually watch how Leicester City play there is simply no comparison or are you completely dillusional? Yes we have scored lots of goals this season, which is great, but we aren’t exciting to watch - we simply aren’t. Our attendances show you that. Have we suddenly just stopped lumping the ball forwards hoping Garner wins it and we pick up the second ball? No, it is still a lot of long ball rubbish mixed in with some flicks in the air, but a little less than previous seasons - hence Tony Pulis Mark II. Based on Manchester United against City on Sunday, MM could do well at Old Trafford they just lump the ball forwards, oh and they score goals too - that must make them great!?
I think a few of us are being hoodwinked because we have scored a few goals this season. Look at how we play generally, the improvement is slightly better nothing more. [Post edited 13 Dec 2017 14:53]
