He'll take them down unless there's some amazing transfer window work over the next few days which Newcastle seem determined to give them a chance to do by paying money for the worst winger in the league.

We'll probably have another player or two missing the Real Madrid tie now too.

[Ray K]

The derby is going to be grim.

It's not even going to approach the lofty heights of 'grim'.  There's no way that a broadcaster will be allowed to show it to children, and only to consenting adults if they have written consent from their doctors.

The derby is going to be grim.

They're so shit I think they could step up and get some sort of result.

[RedBec1993]

Bielsa deffo turned them down. Shame cos I reckon Dyche will keep them up. Proper brexit footy.

[Jwils21]

Here comes all that "Dogs of War" shite again...

[thaddeus]

Dyche to be appointed today.

Dyche going down with Everton would top Hodgson having one last punt as a manager and getting Watford relegated.

Of all the names touted he's probably the best fit but I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that he keeps them up.  Goodison will be a pit for the Arsenal game and I'm glad the derby is at Anfield.  Leeds, Villa, Forest and Brentford after that so a reasonable chance to pick up points if they can get organised.

[Fromola]

Always has to come back to dogs of war with these. Their fans will buy into the alehouse and shithouse tactics. They boo if the ball isn't pumped forward quick enough.

Bielsa would have been a guaranteed disaster with that squad though

[[new username under construction]]

Biggest shout is that he didn't get Burnley relegated and while true, he put them in that position while playing terrible football before getting sacked/walking before a no mark came in and nearly saved them by playing much better

could be carnage

[Zlen]

Not looking forward to the derby game. More than usual, they'll really be out to kick the shit out of our players and injure as many as possible. It would really be lovely if they went down, if only not to have to be worried about these talentless fucks venting their frustrations on our players.

[Crosby Nick]

He’ll have that same white shirt on the touchline, just with a nice snazzy blue and white shiny tie instead. Eurgh.

He had a run in with Klopp. That will be good enough for them

[JRed]

Everton going full ‘dogs of war’ again with Dyche. It’s going to be grim.
Will look a bit ridiculous when they make him dye his ginger beard blue tho.

[lukeb1981]

He is pushing it timewise if he takes over sells Gordan then tries to get players in to play his system - Wood will probably be included if Gordan goes to Newcastle.

[gerrardisgod]

Maybe he can bring back Aaron Lennon to check on the clock.

We land in Tenerife at about 12:30 and the kids want to go watch it. There's a bar ran by a red not far from the hotel, we'll go there, but I'm not looking forwards to it at all.

[rafathegaffa83]

I'd imagine the wiser heads in their fanbase will accept that Dyche is their best chance at staying up. Miguel Delaney proved right that Bielsa flying in meant nothing. It must have been one quick meeting. Sky suggesting Bielsa felt he needed a preseason for his methods to work (you don't say) , whereas Dyche has already worked with a few of the players

Here comes all that "Dogs of War" shite again...

But isn't that what a portion of their fanbase have wanted? Their best times have seemingly been associated with relegation dogfights

[elsewhere]

Anthony Gordon looks happy he's leaving soon

It is exactly what they want. Pashun ain’t it.

Wood has gone to Forest hasn't he?

[MJD-L4]

Dyche is probably the best of a bunch of shitty options available but he won't keep them up. They're fucked.

Although as many have said, the Derby is going to be dire.

[Charlie Adams fried egg]

He had a run in with Klopp. That will be good enough for them

He'll have another one too in a couple of weeks.

It'll be an insurance against too much scrutiny once they realise he's a childhood RS.

Imagine though, after hounding out Rafa for his links to us, an actual RS taking them down. Personally I think they'll stay up by hook or crook, but it won't be easy.

By the way, we played them 14 times under Dyche and won 10. 2 of the games we dropped points in were behind closed doors (we'd won the league and then had no defenders in the other one)

I am not so sure he will keep them up. His record at Burnley is decent, but he had a little time in the Championship to mould a squad, admittedly with limited funds, that was capable of keeping them up. I think defensively they are pretty solid but goals have been their problem all season. I still don`t see how they are going to win enough games.

It says a lot about where that club are now. Perhaps this is the management appointment that finally makes a lot of their fans realise where they really are in the pecking order. Biesla turning them down says a lot. Do you think he would turn down the likes of Spurs, Chelsea if he didn`t like the make up of their squad mid season ? I doubt it.

[rossipersempre]

Circling the drain now. Dyche isn't going to reverse that.

[disgraced cake]

You've appointed another tory you fucking idiots 

[RedBec1993]

Circling the drain now. Dyche isn't going to reverse that.

They’re making out they turned down Bielsa, it was the other way round.

Already seen clips doing the rounds on Twitter of Klopp and Dyche’s run in… different breed them.

[Fiasco]

Bielsa did indeed turn them down. But I think that could end up being a blessing in disguise. He would have been a huge risk/reward appointment.

[MJD-L4]

So they're just cycling through managers that have had a touch line bust up with Jurgen?

Arteta will be counting himself lucky things are going well for him at the mo!

[Qston]

You've appointed another tory you fucking idiots 

He's an oxymoron. He's a liverpool supporting Tory !

[Ray K]

Anthony Gordon caught trying to leave Finch Farm by Sean Dyche as he turns up for his first day.

[Red Beret]

The derby is going to be grim.

Nothing new there.

[El Lobo]

Tremendously exciting this. They've sort of accepted that instead of bumbling around mid-table like they did for years, they're now a team solely aiming to avoid relegation and hiring managers accordingly. And that sort of team always end up getting flushed, at least once.

[Red Beret]

They're We're so shit I think they could step up and get some sort of result.

[Jwils21]

It is exactly what they want. Pashun ain’t it.

Their highlights from the past 30 years include "Big Dunc" throttling someone, and Funes Mori clattering Origi then grabbing the badge after being sent off (in a 4-0 defeat). That's what they want to see.

[Father Ted]

As soon as he keeps them up with his awful football (if he does) they’ll suddenly decide they deserve a better style of football at the School of Science and turn on him. He gets paid either way of course. At this stage the big payoff when you inevitably get the boot is the best part of the job.

[Charlie Adams fried egg]

They just don't seem to get it do they. Time and time again. They'll be saying he gets us next.

Celebrating a yard dog manager overlooking yard dog tactics having a go at one of the best managers around who's won it all. If I remember rightly that was a game at Turf Moor that we won 3-0 when they tried kicking lumps out of us.

Dyche won't be able to risk playing to the gallery. A bit more disrespect towards Klopp. Kick lumps out of us too. A couple of comments in the media. It's the classic playbook for one of their managers looking to get his feet under the table.

“I was a 70s child so everyone was a Liverpool fan but I lived in Kettering so I couldn’t get up there all the time, I was a distant Liverpool fan.”

For Dyche, Dalglish was the one who put a glint in his eye.

“My first recollection of them was at seven years old, then at about eight or nine when you start zooming in on what it’s really about,” he told talkSPORT of his love for Liverpool growing up.

“You start getting your favourite players, mine was King Kenny – as a kid why wouldn’t he be your favourite player?

“Souness as well,” he added, while hailing the character of the late Ray Clemence. “What a fantastic player, no airs and graces.

[Ray K]

Bielsa is genuinely a madman. Thank God he didn't end up with this lot, because they doesn't deserve him.
