Sutton makes new Everton relegation prediction in Dyche exit verdict after loss v Aston Villa

Everton will avoid relegation from the Premier League if Sean Dyche doesn’t exit Goodison Park, according to Chris Sutton.

The Toffees’ winless run to the league season continued with a 3-2 defeat to Aston Villa at Villa Park on Saturday (14 September) as Unai Emery’s side came from two goals down to claim all three points.

Calls for Dyche to be sacked have been increasing among supporters even though he reportedly has the backing of the board [Sky Sports, 13 September], but Sutton thinks he remains their best chance of dodging the drop.

Speaking on BBC Radio Five Live’s 606 (14 September, 2:10) he said: “Dominic Calvert-Lewin had some chances as well didn’t he?

“Do you know what? I’ll still maintain Rob that if Sean Dyche stays at Everton, he will keep them in the Premier League.”

What has made Everton so frustrating to watch this season is the fact that there are elements of the Toffees’ performances that have been impressive and showed that they are capable of winning games.

But they are so easy to break down and they consistently fold under pressure when their opponents get a foothold in the game. Whether that is Dyche’s fault or the players, the blame will always be placed on the manager.

Yes, his track record of keeping teams in the top flight is impressive, but that alone shouldn’t mean that he keeps his job at Goodison Park. The former Burnley boss needs to start winning games otherwise his position will become untenable.

The Blues were supposed to be looking up the Premier League table this season, rather than over their shoulder at the relegation zone once again.

Unless something changes, whether that be Dyche or the players, it is hard to see how the Toffees don’t spend the season in a dogfight to avoid the drop.
