According to Everton boss Sean Dyche, it's highly unlikely that Neal Maupay will face any consequences for his recent comments. Maupay, who is currently on loan, made some disparaging remarks about Everton and their performance in the team's 2-0 defeat against Nottingham Forest on Sunday. However, Dyche doesn't seem too concerned about it and even found the situation amusing.
Maupay's comments sparked a fierce backlash from Everton fans, as he took a dig at the club on social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter). In August, Maupay joined Marseille on a season-long loan, and at the time, he didn't hide his excitement about leaving Everton. Unfortunately, Maupay hasn't been able to make much of an impact at Goodison Park since his £15million transfer from Brighton in 2022. With only one goal in 32 appearances, it's safe to say that he hasn't lived up to the expectations.
Naturally, Maupay's behavior hasn't gone down well with the club, especially since he is still under contract. It seems like he has burned all his bridges with the Toffees, which has caused quite a stir behind the scenes. However, when Dyche faced the media, he downplayed the whole situation, stating that he has bigger things to worry about - like leading his team to Premier League survival.
When asked if Maupay could face disciplinary action, Dyche simply replied with a "no." He also mentioned that he isn't too bothered by the attacker's comments. Moving on to Everton's upcoming match against Bournemouth, Dyche had some kind words for their manager Andoni Iraola. He praised Iraola for the great job he has done with the team, especially considering their tough start to the season. Dyche also commended Iraola for changing the team's playing style and getting the best out of his players.
Meanwhile, former boxer and lifelong Everton fan Tony Bellew has been quite vocal about his criticism of Maupay. In response to Maupay's tweet, Bellew called him a "p****" and a "muppet." He also expressed his disappointment in Maupay's behavior, especially since he is getting paid by the club. Bellew believes that Maupay should focus on playing for the team he is currently on loan with, instead of taking jabs at his former club. He also took a dig at Maupay's performance during his time at Everton, calling him "useless." Bellew doesn't understand why Maupay would criticize his previous club, especially since Brighton were eager to get rid of him.
In conclusion, it seems like Maupay's comments have caused quite a stir among fans and behind the scenes at Everton. However, Dyche doesn't seem too worried about it and is focusing on more important matters. He also had some kind words for Bournemouth's manager, while Bellew expressed his disappointment in Maupay's behavior. Despite the drama, it's clear that Dyche and Everton are focused on their upcoming match and securing their spot in the Premier League.
