I keep looking at the table and thinking we should have 5 more points - from the Brighton and the Everton game. Conveniently forgetting how lucky we were at the start of the season.

TBF his grandson died and he had some leave to deal with that.

Really hope Wolves win this

The last three games we have created many greats chances and just haven't scored them. Arguably our best player, Isak being guilty of many of them spurned unfortunately. Don't really see how Howe could be personally blamed for those results. One could easily argue should have won the last 3 games based on our chances. That would have left us in 3rd and sitting pretty.

This place is astounding sometimes. Losing Eddie Howe would be a major step back.

Would imagine the location as well being a huge factor.

That's shit news. Hoping he gets back fully healthy again.

It's certainly possible. Personally I doubt it though and the only reason being is when Saudi were spending huge money on players such like Ruben Nerves and Mitrovic, I thought along the same lines as you, and they were deliberately inflating all the transfer fees so when it came to purchasing our cast offs they could justify it easier. But that never materialised. Although we sold ASM that summer we certainly didn't get an inflated fee.

We have literally controlled the half. Away from home in the premier league that's not easy anywhere.

The longer he stays in the job the better.

Edit: wrong thread.

A shambles??... the opposition didn't have a single shot all game.

In the managerial context we definitely dodged a bullet with not getting EtH. From collection everyone on this forum, myself included, wanted him to take over. Fortunately he wasn't interested.

We have dodged a few bullets. Carlos Diaby Cantley Lingard Just off the top of my head.

I would be pissed if someone on our team was dismissed for something like that. Just looked like a clumsy slip. Bruno Fernandes' reputation hasn't helped him there.

I hope they stick with EtH. Loving his work.

The performance reminded me of Villa away when we lost 3-0. Where we had no midfield, Bruno was getting exposed time and time again. After that match we bounced back, adjusted our tactics and were much better having learnt some lessons. Firmly believe we would be better as a result of this hiccup. Howe wouldn't be happy with what he's witnessed today.

I'm pretty sure some of you lot would hound even Pep out.

That Schar chance is going to haunt me.

Should have started the whole game how we started the first half. Some good spells in the second half. Individual mistakes have killed us today, but we were miles off first half.

To be fair I thought Eddie specifically mentioning the board (when talking about unification) was sending a message.

Why exactly? We have a habit of downplaying our players after a few average games. He's a beast when in-form.

The club would usually record everything discussed. Have their own copy.

EtH and Anthony have worked really well together before Man Utd. They are both just not good enough for the this league.
