If we fail to qualify for the Champions League and Forest do he can have more than a few months off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll park the fact that you think Howe should be sacked if we fail to get Champions League, as ridiculous as that statement is, (I bet you think Liverpool should have sacked Klopp when he failed to get Champions League a few years back), but do this for me, name a single attainable manager that is better than Eddie Howe? As I can't think of any I would want, and any that would represent us as well as Eddie has and continues to do. As for Iraloa he is a good manager, but he's still young and needs to prove he can do it over longer periods, he's done nothing that Howe hasn't already done.

However, it is obvious that there are reasons for it that extend beyond the manager, the primary of which is key players getting older and the squad as a whole going stale due to a few windows without investment. I've been critical of us this season but your anti-Howe schtick is completely unbalanced and boring tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't matter what it looks like really because we haven't added a lot of first team players in that time and big players like Tripps, Burn and Schar got two years older and worse for it. Now look at it as a results game, what did we achieve during that great season? League Cup final and Champions League football, what way do we look so far this season?

STM Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 (edited) Established us as a top 6 side. Got us in the Champions league. Two cup finals. Develops every player put in front of him. Plays fast aggressive football. Broken tonnes of records. Amazing wins vs PSG, Arsenal (like 5 times), Chelsea, Man United (at fucking old trafford), Spurs and more. Incredible ambassador for the club. And not signed a player in two fucking years. Mattyboy: "Nah not having him". what an absolute weapon.

We have added Tonali (A) to midfield replacing Longstaff, Hall (B) replacing Burn at left back, Livramento (C) replacing Trippier. As well as Isak becoming World Class (A) and Gordon (B) becoming one of the best in his position, according to ratings by people on here. Yet, our football on the pitch has regressed.

It's not far to say though, because our main defence that season was Tripps Botman Schar and Burn, 3 have since aged two years more well into their 30s and one has been injured for most of this season, but we've still made the same achievements on the pitch getting to a final and pushing for Champions League football. You're also forgetting the likes of Wilson scored 18 goals that season and hasn't been available. Had Howe brought a load of new faces in you might have a point but he hasn't.
