Dyche reflects on consecutive losses: Everton's uncertain future

The Blues suffered a crushing 4-0 defeat on Saturday, adding to their recent home loss to Brighton just a week prior.

Dyche said, "Two back-to-back tough games. We had two mistakes last week, one this week. Tottenham are a team of goalscorers all over the pitch. We didn’t have enough. We are stretched but that’s no excuse. I expect a lot from these players but there are a lot of challenges here.

"We’re working within the guidelines that we can. We expect more. We have been written off many times before and we’ll be written off again. We have come through it before."

Asked about transfer deadline plans, Dyche added: "It's shifting sands at this football club."
