Sean Dyche’s position at Everton is coming under considerable pressure amid their poor run of form.

The Toffees are going into their game on Thursday against Peterborough United on the back of consecutive defeats.

This has led to The Friedkin Group assessing Sean Dyche’s position at Everton as they sit dangerously close to the relegation zone.

Everton are showing relegation form as their have only been able to put three wins on the board from their 19 games.

A change in manager could well be what the Toffees need, but it seems as if they could be set to miss out on one of their targets.

Everton have approached Sean Dyche replacements

With Dyche failing to provide the results, Everton have shown an interest in Graham Potter to potentially replace him.

However, the 49-year-old now looks set to join West Ham United and replace Julen Lopetegui.

Having shared the news, Alan Myers added that Everton have approached other managers as well as Potter.

‘Over the last few months I believe we will have done but don’t ask who,’ Myers replied to an Everton fan.

Potter is not the only name on the Friedkins’ radar, with Everton also asking Max Allegri about potentially replacing Dyche.

It would certainly be an ambitious move from the Toffees but not one they haven’t pulled off before with Carlo Ancelotti.

Sean Dyche needs to find some Everton wins

The game on Thursday marks an absolute must-win for the Toffees with a loss to League One strugglers Peterborough surely marking the end of the trust in Dyche.

The Friedkins are running an internal review of Everton until March where Dyche is expected to be allowed time to prove himself.

But the games are not looking any easier for the Blues in the Premier League with Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur coming up next week.

Dyche has held positive talks with the Friedkins following their latest defeat over the weekend against Bournemouth.

Although there seems to be some faith remaining in Dyche, the Friedkins are unlikely to stand by if the results continue to churn out defeats.
