Can Dyche tame chaotic Forest and their owner?

The night of Oct 26 on England's south coast sees a meeting of perhaps the English Premier League's most progressive club and its most chaotic.

Nottingham Forest are on their third manager this season as they visit Bournemouth, Sean Dyche having replaced Ange Postecoglou, who lasted 39 days, sacked 18 minutes after last week's loss to Chelsea.

Postecoglou, it was soon apparent, was an inadequate replacement for Nuno Espirito Santo, the Australian's philosophy diametrically opposed to that of the man from Sao Tome.

Whether Dyche is the answer is in question. His style of football is yet more conservative than Nuno's, fans at Everton were happy he kept their team from relegation but his brand of football did nothing to excite them.

Dyche inherits a team in the bottom three.
