Howe's inability to react or sack off his mates when they're a liability will ultimately cost him his job.

 

Credit where its due, he's done a great job, but in the summer he needs to go.

Wow. :lol: If the end of the season is a mess he probably will go, but we can still get European football and a good run in the FA Cup. Let’s not give up on the man just yet.

so should we feel pleased to get 1 point today? If that’s the case then I apologise

No, I’m not suggesting one point is ever ideal at home.  But teams do drop points at home, sometimes unexpectedly.  And it isn’t usually after a bonkers 4-4

We didn’t learn anything new today.  Howe tends to pick players that he likes and trusts, and usually makes tactical substitutions reactively - and this season, this has often been after chucking away an unnecessary goal or two.

 

If every game where it happens is as fun as this one was, I’d be ok.  Doubt his employers share this view, mind. 

Agreed. He’s been here 2 years now and it feels like I know 99% of his moves. 
 

 

You can name his lineup 11/11 for any game. Doesn’t matter the opponent too much. 
 

If we are winning you can name the subs and the minutes.  
 

And you can bet your bottom dollar he won’t make a proactive sub if we are winning. There’s been many 45 minutes Burn hasn’t deserved to come out and played again but it’s happened so often under Howe that you actually expect him to be a little better after half time. But if he’s not better - he’s going to stay on until we’ve paid for it.

I wouldn’t say so. This Luton team is decent enough and Liverpool, City and Arsenal struggled to get past them this season, they also slapped  Brighton 4-0 last week. 

No sorry I meant we have the habit of throwing away wins against newly promoted teams.. Blackpool, Derby, Luton etc.

 

I'm sure we give Derby 4 of their 9 points that year

The summer transfer window is so important. Our lack of pace needs to be addressed. A proper left back and a centre back need to be purchased that both have pace. Preferably a central midfielder as well that can be defence minded but also fit into Howe’s style. 
 

Howe can’t continue to play a high pressing game with a high line with the lack of pace we have got, teams are figuring it out

:lol: I think we should judge him on a season which hasn't been decimated by injuries like.

Throw in Joelinton, Willock and Tonali and we are a much stronger, faster, powerful and athletic team.  
 

A fit Joelinton and we win that game.

Burn has probably directly contributed to as many wins  as he has what feels like a loss today. He's hardly been a big disaster every game. But we cannot go into next season with him starting at left back that's for sure.

 

Regarding Eddie Howe, even on a day as potentially disastrous as today was, still the team came back and looked great doing so. Still his Barnes signing shone as did Gordon, still his setup manages to get two goals out of Longstaff, still he continues to get significant contributions out of 17 year old Miley.

 

Getting rid of Howe would be a disaster. He would shortly end up somewhere else and only continue to get better and better, and we would never live it down.

Tonali is very quick. The midfield 3 with him and either of the Joe's would make a huge difference. The current 3 we are forced to play is leaving the defence exposed a lot, particularly on transitions.

Yeah I agree and that’s why I think the central midfielder is less important in the summer when everyone is back but going forward we need more pace at the back and for the rest of this season, Tino has to start for me.

We still need another passer in the team. All our passing is from Tripps, Schar and Bruno. Nobody else does anything penetrative or cute.

 

We normally have at least 1 dribbley CM which we’ve missed

Hopefully once he has fully settled, Tonali can offer that. He showed signs of it before his ban

Miley has a great pass in him. His overall play will also improve every year going on.
