"When we sign a contract we usually get sacked." He's so inspirational, I can't figure out why it's not working for him in management -
Howe has done a brilliant job, the talk of replacing him is ludicrous especially when attaching it to league positions without any context. Howe showed improvements, was then backed in January and he repaid that backing and some. It's now over to the owners to back him again in the summer and the expectations will be formed on the back of it. For example if we sign 3-4 Burn level players then it's unrealistic to expect top 4/6 challenges imo however if we get 2-3 Bruno level players with a few others to beef up the squad so we don't need to rely on Longstaff/Murphy etc then the expectations will no doubt change
-
I'm not overly concerned about the positions, obviously we should never criticise or downplay anyone wanting to aim as high as possible, ambition should never be a negative What I'd like to see is a minimum of 3 (4 including Targett) first team players, that alone should mean the minimum expectation is that relegation battle is off the table. As to the exact position, there's so many variables but it would be good if we can improve on wherever we end up finishing this season.

Villa have 6 games left so they could lose the 2 to Burnley but win the other 4 So it's not mathematically done yet, probably will be in a couple of games
-
Yeah, think it was a pen too but the brand needs the title to go to the wire
-
Could do with Leeds getting a result tomorrow
-
Told you, get in
-
Such a mad comment, arguably the best team in the world and being called "pathetic"
-
Klopp sending on Diaz and Origi for Keita and Mane, going to be 30 mins of bombardment here
-
Class will eventually show, mark my words
-
I get why people dislike Gordon but can't deny he's got something about him That was such a good run
-
People need to relax, Everton aren't going to score and once Diaz etc come on the goal is inevitable
-
I thought Iwobi made the wrong pass anyway, should have went to Gray on the other side
-
Phew, that looks like a penalty to me
-
Liverpool (in particular Matip) moving the ball a lot quicker, just need to maintain this for a bit and the goal will hopefully come
-
How did we let Iwobi score? He's shite
-
They will, Everton will tire, running around after the ball will eventually catch up and then a mistake will follow
-
No chance Chelsea might next week against them though
-
They won't, going to be an easy win for Liverpool

As much as our recent form has been mint and obviously there is no pressure on us from this game but I can't see us getting anything from this Would be nice to at least be competitive for large parts -
Yes, should then be a penalty
-
Sods law, he finishes the one that is offside and misses the one that was onside
-
It sounds like they are going to avoid any punishment but they will be massively limited as to what they can spend in the summer, obviously relegation would just compound the issue
-
I'd take Pogba but don't think it's realistic, think he'll be away to PSG With Pogba though if you surround him with the right midfielders (like Juventus and France do) then he's mint
-
To me signing Targett makes sense, it's such a no brainer based on his performances and the reported fee. However if Howe has seen something in his game that means he doesn't want to sign him permanently then I have no issues with that, I think Howe has earned himself the right to make judgments on players and we have to trust him. Having said that, I'd be surprised if Howe didn't want him and I wouldn't pay too much attention to that article, there's a lot of assumptions in it and some serious stretching.
