Think you're struggling to understand there is more nuance to our situation. It's not totally black and white. I.e the summer and the circumstances surrounding that means this season is a weird one to judge.

He has been out best defender imo.

Osula looks decent out there

Osula has just dribbled more than Nick has all season. Looks lovely.

Considering how bad we have been in recent weeks. We are doing ok.

Aye team is unbalanced and out of form. Every manager, even the very best out there, has a team like this at one point in their career. That under performs severely. Ancelotti, Pep, Ferguson, Mourinho, Emery etc etc. It does happen.

You wanted him sacked well before, even that season . Thank you.

Tbf you couldn't give a shit about Eddie even after we won a cup. So criticism from you isn't worth much.

We are losing against a set piece goal against a team that has been top for whole season. You sound delusional.

I mean.. That's a good, well worked goal against a team that's been top for X amount of weeks tbf.

But we try every match. That's the point. Just because we lose it doesn't mean we don't try.

Do they look like we are trying? Or has he still lost the dressing room

How could anyone want Eddie out. Need better players not a change in manager.

Started playing Osula once Denmark was knocked out.

We should have won there last year. Hopeful that we will see a good performance today.

He's turned situations around in past.

Top class keeper is vital for the summer.

He's 23 and team mates with the best keeper in the world in Donnarumma. And he's played 14.

Having a save percentage of 85% in the championship is nothing to be sniffed at TBF. He's been good in goal for Man City whenever he's played.

I know everyone dismisses and ridicules any domestic target. But Trafford is extremely good. Just look at his stats in the past few seasons. Unreal.

Absolutely, I do quite like him though. Just not sure he's physically going to adapt to this league, hope so. The way he is so easily dispossessed which subsequently leads to opposition counters are, I think, part of reason why we haven't seen him so much.

Osula should be starting rest of the season. 4 goals within 455 minutes of Premier League football as a 22 year old is some going tbh. 12 shots and 4 goals. Woltemade if he's here next season reckon will be a lot better with a pre-season. Looked livelier in his brief cameos recently.

We definitely need a specialist like a Caicedo in midfield. I wouldn't keep Ramsdale, don't think any of the defence trusts him. I think he's a total liability.

It's a little weird to me that the players get so much more leeway on this forum, then a manager who won us a trophy and some of the best seasons in living memory. For instance because people like Woltemade a lot here, and can't comprehend the decision to not start him, when I fact he's been poor starting up front for a long time. Howe made the decision to start Osula and that doesn't sit well with people here, despite Howe knowing what's best for the team and probably working with Woltemade a lot on his game.. Like he's done for every player here. It's like people would rather see Woltemade succeed than Howe, which boggles my mind a bit.
