"It's unfortunate nowadays for us, whether you're a pundit or a manager, clickbait kills everything, it changed the whole story. I equally said, I want managers to be given time, I don't like seeing managers coming out of situations, because I've had it. I equally said what would be a fair time? I actually said half a season to continue the work he was doing. But unfortunately, that doesn't make the story."
"Maybe it's true if we play 4-4-2 we would win more games. But I always said that I have a way of playing that is going to take a while, but in the future it's going to be better. So we don't know that. Then I can look at Sean Dyche as a manager and then as a pundit. If you are a pundit and you don't say very strong things, I don't want to watch you! I'm the same. So I can understand that it's a completely different job. I know that Sean Dyche is really smart and he knows how to play the game. And he also understands that one thing is when we are seeing the game and talking about the game, the other thing is to coach a team."
Sean Dyche clarified that his comments comparing potential results under a 4-4-2 to Manchester United were presented as clickbait. The two managers meet when United visit the City Ground, with United seeking a fourth straight win and Nottingham Forest searching for their first victory since the opening day. Dyche insisted he did not question Amorim personally and urged patience for managers, suggesting half a season is a fair period to continue work. Ruben Amorim acknowledged the 4-4-2 observation but defended his own longer-term playing philosophy and stressed the difference between pundit commentary and coaching responsibilities.
