Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has backed current Burnley boss Sean Dyche to become the new manager of Everton.
The Toffees on Monday parted ways with Ronald Koeman following their poor start to the season during which they have claimed just eight points from their opening nine games.
They are currently locked in 18th position on the League standings and if things do not improve soon, they could face a relegation battle this season. Since taking charge of Burnley in 2012, Dyche has gained positive reviews for his managerial skills and has twice led the club from the Championship to the Premier League.
He has also been selected as the Championship manager of the month four times. Carragher is convinced that Dyche has what it takes to turn things around at Everton and he said: “He is doing a great job at Burnley. Everton are in the bottom three and need to tighten up defensively. Sean Dyche has those qualities.
“It would be a big step up for him but if you are a manager you want to move up eventually, no disrespect to Burnley but it’s a huge step. That’s natural for his progression as a manager. I can see totally why he’s top of the list.”
