Everton winger Gray takes swipe at manager Dyche

Everton winger Demarai Gray has taken aim at manager Sean Dyche.

Gray took to social media after Everton's draw with Sheffield United yesterday.

The attacker saw a move to Fulham fall through last week, though he also has interest from Turkey and Saudi Arabia.

"Everton fans have always been great with me but it's so difficult to play for someone who don't show you respect as a person," Gray wrote on Instagram.

Asked about Gray's absence yesterday, Dyche said: "It was a bit of everything - his fitness, his fitness to play in the side, the situation around him and all of the noise.

"Hopefully, over the next couple of weeks that will become clear and he will get himself fit as a start point."

Asked if he anticipated Gray staying with the squad, Dyche added: "I do at this time."
