Sean Dyche eyes Man Utd job, says he’d win more than Amorim and offers advice

SEAN DYCHE admits he would love to manage Manchester United and has given Ruben Amorim tips on how to improve results.

Former Everton manager Dyche has been out of work since January after being sacked by the Toffees.

The no-nonsense gaffer started his career at Watford in 2011.

But it was a 10-year spell at Burnley where he made his name, taking charge of 425 games at Turf Moor until 2022.

Now, Dyche is hoping to return to the beautiful game with a new club over the summer.

There could be several sides looking for a new manager.

But Dyche admits his dream would be to link up with struggling Man United.

The Red Devils are in the Europa League final against Tottenham, yet their Premier League campaign has been a disaster.

They lie 16th in the table with just 10 wins in 36 outings.

And earlier in the season United sacked Erik ten Hag for Portuguese tactician Amorim.

He has since struggled to get a tune out of the club’s big-money flops.

But Dyche has made it perfectly clear he would be willing to try his hand in the Old Trafford dugout should an unexpected change be made shortly.

Speaking on the Stick to Football podcast, brought to you by Sky Bet, Dyche said: “(One job I’d take?) It was always Manchester United because of the size of the club, not because it’s Man U – but due to the sheer grandeur, particularly back then.

“I know they are going through a tough run at the minute, but the whole worldwide feel of it. That’s a big super-powered club.”

Dyche also dished out some advice to Amorim on how to improve results while claiming he would have done better in the role.

Dyche added: “Amorim better win some games – pretty quick. I reckon if I went there and played my way, we’d win more games. 

“Just 4-4-2 – give them basic rules of principles. They have some good players. You don’t have to over teach everyone. 

“I’d be interested more in the longer run, if he can stick to his principals and then next season, we’re all going, ‘Fair play’ – but, he’s been there a while now so you better start bringing some wins soon.”

Dyche finished by claiming he would have given ex-England boss Gareth Southgate the job over Amorim last year.

He noted: "I thought the Manchester United job fitted Gareth [Southgate] really well. Coming out of the hardship of managing your country – because it is hard managing your country.

“The fans and the media can drive [decisions] but sometimes you’ve got to be brave enough. Think of all the managers down the years where clubs have been brave.”
