Dyche Hates The EPL Winter Break

Jan 04, 2024

Everton boss Sean Dyche wants the Premier League to scrap its winter break.  

He argues that it only adds to the congested fixture schedule during the holiday season, and gives an unfair advantage to bigger clubs who have better squad depth.  

There's no Premier League action this weekend, but teams will be competing in the third round of the FA Cup.  

After that, EPL teams will have one of the following two weekends off.  

He said this ahead of Everton's FA Cup clash at Crystal Palace, and you can catch it from 4AM LIVE on Astro channel 814.
