Everton manager Sean Dyche has a controversial opinion on players getting more rest around the Christmas and New Year period.
Dyche was speaking about the winter break in the Premier League, which goes into effect after New Year's Day.
Everton will have played eight games in 29 days when they take on Crystal Palace in the FA Cup this week.
They will then have only ONE game in the next 26 days due to the break.
I don't see the point of the break. It's not beneficial and I'd take it away. It would be better to lose a couple of fixtures in December and put them in January to spread it out," argued Dyche.
With more games (close together) the big clubs are bound to gain because of their big squads.
If you're like us and get injuries, you're stretched. I'd be surprised if that break doesn't disappear from the scheduling. We will see."
