Everton have a new manager and everyone wanted to talk to him.
For the second consecutive January transfer window the club added a hunt for a new leader to its list of jobs and, while last month did not lead to any new players, it did at least lead to Sean Dyche. By the time it reached the allotted start time of 2.15pm for his first press conference as Blues boss it was standing room only in the media suite at Finch Farm.
An hour earlier the 'car park full' sign was already outside the front gates of the training complex and the cars parked on Finch Lane stretched alongside the semi-detached houses Marcelo Bielsa had viewed on Google Maps as possible homes should he have ended up in the hotseat.
