Sam Allardyce has hit out at Everton for his sacking in the summer.
The former England boss was shown the door, despite steering them clear of relegation and finishing in 8th place last season.
Fans were not happy with the play-style of the team, while the board wanted to go with a more attacking and progressive manager.
The Blues have struggled to find consistency under Marco Silva this season, as they are in 9th position.
Allardyce told talkSPORT: "Everybody walks around talking about, 'Sam Allardyce's style is not good enough, he doesn't play the right way' and so on and so forth and it is a massive problem for me. People believe it. You believe the false lies, the false implications. Football does that – it believes that lie sometimes.
"It is built up by fellow managers, journos who follow on with it and you are never going to get rid of it. The type of football I played at Everton, the fans said it wasn't good enough and I would say the same – I knew it wasn't good enough for Everton – but I knew I had to get them in the position where they were safe.
"Then let me build the team, let me spend the next 80million, 100million on the players that will make Everton much, much more fluid, much more creative and go forward and score more goals and hopefully finish better than eighth.
"They talk about my style of football. Well, Ronald went and they said he played the right style of football. Roberto [Martinez] went, everybody said he played the right style of football, and I went because I didn't play the right style of football.
"It is about trying to entertain and win, that is the ultimate, but you have to keep winning first to change the things that need to change.
"If I got sacked because my results weren't good enough at Everton, I accept it, but getting sacked when they finish eighth, it is ridiculous. In fact, it is ludicrous.
"If the fans continue to pressure the board, the board will ultimately crack and you may see a change of manager again, particularly if they continue to lose football matches."
