The shocking Premier League table since Everton appointed Sean Dyche

Sean Dyche has been sacked by Everton and we’ve taken a look at the Premier League table during his tenure at the club to assess his impact at Goodison Park.

“Everton Football Club can confirm that Sean Dyche has been relieved of his duties as Senior Men’s First Team Manager with immediate effect,” a club statement read on Thursday.

Dyche was initially hired in January 2023 with the aim of keeping Everton in the Premier League. Upon taking the job, the club sat 17th in the table and were dangerously close to the relegation zone.

Despite enduring a few scares throughout the second half of the 2022-23 campaign, Dyche kept Everton afloat and guided them to a 17th-placed finish.

He also did a decent job during his first full season in charge as he led his side to a 15th-placed finish, despite being hit with an eight-point deduction.

Had it not been for that point deduction, Everton would’ve been just one point shy from finishing in the top half of the table.

However, despite the solid foundations that had been built during the 2023-24 campaign, Dyche struggled to get much of a tune out of his squad this season.

Despite earning solid draws against the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City, goals have been in short supply for The Toffees this season.

With the club staring down the barrel of another relegation dogfight, they made the decision to part company with Dyche with the club sat 16th in the table.

In total, Everton accumulated 86 points in 75 games throughout Dyche’s time at the club. That’s an average of 1.15 points per game which is the equivalent of 44 points over a full season.

How does Dyche’s tenure at Goodison Park look when you view it as a whole in comparison to the rest of the division?
