Dyche was sacked as Everton manager on 9 January with Everton 16th in the table and one point clear of the bottom three. He took over a Nottingham Forest side in even greater peril in late October but they currently have a five-point cushion over the dropzone. Without him because of persistent knee problems, no Forest player has more than three league goals this season. Winless Wolves are the only club whose top scorer has fewer. They and Forest are the joint-second lowest scorers in the division, averaging only a goal per game.
