SEAN DYCHE has broken his silence on his Everton sacking. The 53-year-old was axed just hours before the Toffees' FA Cup clash with Peterborough last Thursday. Everton have since confirmed David Moyes as Dyche's successor. In a classy statement released via the League Managers Association, Dyche thanked everyone involved in his tenure as Toffees boss, while insisting that he has left the club in a strong position.

He said: "It was an honour to manage Everton, a football club with a significant heritage and an enormous following in Liverpool and all over the world, through one of its toughest periods in its history. "Despite the challenges we faced, I wanted to ensure that the club’s narrative was focused on the positive direction it will take in the future and that the team could focus on competing in the Premier League in the present.

“I thank my staff, the players and all involved who played their part, as it simply wasn’t possible without their support and expertise. "I also thank the fans who came through for us many times when we all needed their support. "The right time has come to leave the club, with the team in good shape.

"David is a manager who I have great respect for and I believe he and his staff will help to push the club forward again and build on the stable footing we have implemented in the past two years.
