Everton coach speaks on Erik ten Hag’s sacking, warns Amorim

In the aftermath of Erik ten Hag’s sudden departure from Manchester United, Everton manager Sean Dyche didn’t hold back.

Days after the Dutchman’s sacking was confirmed, Dyche, known for his candid takes, aimed a subtle dig at his former rival, implying that Ten Hag had been afforded ample time and resources to turn United’s season around.

Reflecting on United’s decision, Dyche said, “Results hadn’t gone to their liking and Manchester United have a high demand…there’s been a fair time scale and resources available for such a highly regarded manager.”

This comment came just before Everton’s face-off against Southampton, marking the second manager this week to share thoughts on Ten Hag’s exit.

West Ham’s Julien Lopetegui, who led the decisive 2-1 defeat that sealed Ten Hag’s fate, weighed in as well, showing a mix of empathy and professional respect.

With United languishing in 14th place, just two points clear of Everton, Dyche’s words suggest a hard reality for top managers including upcoming Man United coach Ruben Amorim: no amount of reputation or resources is enough when results don’t measure up.
