Burnley ex-manager Sean Dyche faced an unexpected snub from the club’s chairman, Alan Pace, who failed to mention Dyche in his program notes. Despite the oversight, Dyche, now leading Everton, enjoyed a triumphant return to Turf Moor, securing a fourth successive league win for the Toffees. The victory marked Everton’s first four-game winning streak in three years, a significant achievement under Dyche’s leadership.

Dyche, who spent over nine years at Burnley, received applause from both Burnley and Everton fans, highlighting the mutual respect for his contributions to both clubs. Everton’s current boss, Vincent Kompany, guided his team to a 2-0 lead with goals from Amadou Onana and Michael Keane. The win solidified Everton’s position, now five points clear of the relegation zone. Dyche’s team, despite a 10-point Premier League deduction, has shown resilience, achieving four clean sheets in a row and demonstrating improved goal-scoring ability.

Burnley’s decline since their 10-point deduction contrasts with their former manager’s success at Everton, emphasizing Dyche’s positive impact on the Toffees and the challenges faced by his previous club.
