I'd be shocked if the Brentford line up is radically different. Just given who is away right now I'd think he will go with those in training.

Even if he flops, it is hard to believe it will be from any lack of effort and a genuine hunger for the task ahead. He clearly is appreciative and humble to the position he is in without being overawed by it. Genuinely don't think there was another manager we were linked with that will go to the same extremes and have the passion for this job that Eddie seems to have. Guess we will see if that translates and he delivers with the hype. Pretty blown away so far from the outside but it is a BIG job with these players.

Only if we get Davies too or Buchanan/Eustaquio while they are cheap.

Congrats, Huge win. Lozano should be suspended, two games in a row he has play acted his way into getting the opposition player sent off. Man they are going to be pissed going into Tuesday. Canada with a US style win ugly vs Costa Rica. Had honduras not fucked us over by letting a 2 goal lead slip to a loss, I'd be ecstatic today!

Cracking save..even better follow up from Tierney!

Scotland 0-2 up. Che Adams. Heading for playoffs it looks like. Edit update: should be 4/5 up. Given away a penalty..and saved. Mega 0-2 82nd minute.

Don't see there being the same problem with doing that from this ownership. If 4 or 5 refuse moves out of the club, I dont think we would blink and eyelid leaving them out in the cold.

Smith likely in at Norwich.. when he gets back from New York. Others interviewd. SSN Liked the "lampard didn't feel it was quite right for him, right now..remember he is a manager that has managed in.. the champions league." He has managed in the Championship too! When you get safe Norwich call me. Fair play for Lampard for knowing he would fail here and there and pulls out. Makes you wonder with that mentality whether he can get another job in the PL though. Wrong attitude for me, but some sucker will hire him,we hired Bruce after all.

Was never very convinced by Lingard. Then he absolutely smashed it last year at West Ham and looked phenomenal. For that reason alone he will go to London if they stump up the cash. He knows it works there for him. Maybe he fancies working with Howe though.

Villa will likely spend again in January and already have a squad good enough to survive. It would be the implosion of all implosion if Gerrard took them down. I'm here for it, unless we go down with them! (With apologies to Brummie, gut says they will stay up with ease if that helps)

Fonseca to Rangers.

Just Jimmy Nail instead of Hasslehoff singing.

Think Gerrard got itchy feet with the speculation over the past month and mentally jumped. Villa is an ambitious club with a solid squad. Really interesting to see how he and Lampard do. I don't think either appointment helps us but both have a chance of being a disaster while they could be a great success. Given the league another layer of interest though.

I think we will try and get a fullback, centre back, central midfielder, striker/winger and maybe double up on at least one of those positions depending on what Howe and his team can get from players. I think Trippier is a strong possibility, IF a top 6 club doesn't want him. Maitland-Niles could be a possibility too. Not convinced Sule has any intention of coming here, he would be beastly though. Tarkowski or Ake on loan seems likely for CB, maybe even a sneaky Lloyd Kelly addition with one of those. Boubacar Kamara would be fantastic and someone we have tracked a few years, I am not sure now is the time to bring someone new to the league. Lerma will be an obvious link. Bellingham would be the top of my list but we are two seasons away from getting that kind of a young hyped player imo. I would take Dele Alli here in a shot too. Could be a great move for him under Howe, likewise Loftus-Cheek. Sarr or Zaha would be fantastic but I don't see either club being interested in dealing with us. Eddie Nketia might be an interesting option. He isn't getting a look in at Arsenal this year. Hudson-Odoi maybe. All have great pace. There are plenty of good domestic options, if clubs will deal with us, likewise in the championship. I would be surprised if we were to be gambling with many signings outside of the UK with the predicament we are in. Pretty sure we will go for premiership experience and potential.

It was mentioned in the new owners list of priorities. I searched for a thread for the team as I am sure there was one but ended up setting up a thread of its own.

Est. 1989 Home: Druid Park, Woolsington Manager: Becky Langley Current League: National League Division One North Current League Table https://www.nufc.co.uk/teams/nuw-team/ https://www.facebook.com/NUWFCOfficial Amongst the myriad of other things to be excited about, I am really interested to see the potential ascent of our Womens team and will be following. They are currently sat 2nd in the National League Division One North (4th Tier of Womens football in the UK) so it will be a long term rise to get to the Super League but the ownership talked about it from day one as being a priority. I have no idea if there are FFP rules as to how we might build the team to get up the leagues quickly. Also whether we will see the team eventually move into SJP, a new training facility or Whitley Park. The womens game has changed so much for the better over he past decade and a half. Looking forward to us having a strong team in future years.

Fingers crossed. Seems like a very solid hire who knows the league very well.

Bad news for us. Think Gerrard will give them enough of a lift this season.

Chief Executive - Michael Edwards Director of Football - Michael Emenalo Techincal Director - Ralph Rangnick Head First Team Coach- Eddie Howe Head of the Academy - Jason Wilcox The best money can buy that isn't in court. It happen

Watched it last night. It's a good 47 mins in fairness. Good lads those three Bournemouth supporters and some nice perspective.

Quality stuff after a LONG day!

Hard to understand the concept of concepts. Ritchie and Longstaff were buzzing, the former especially, like Christmas, excited fist bumps to a reticent Willock.. "Okay, okay we get it, your'e happy your dad is taking over."

Fitness seems to be his biggest issue. I think he could be a useful sub, maybe more if he stays injury free.

A lot of conjecture but wouldn't be surprised if we tried something different with him. A DM he is not though imo. https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/radical-joelinton-solution-eddie-howe-22109767

Could have sat and watched 3 hours of that! Ritchie and Longstaff clearly buzzing. Keeping Fraser out of shots because he told Scotland he was injured lol
