The 2017-18 mid period was some grim reading. And certain people should be called out for their bullshit which sounds eerily similar. Not saying I am not disappointed with Howe, but it's fucking absurd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbers Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 One of the things that worries me is we havent been linked to many midfielders, does that mean Eddie is happy with Longstaff and Shelvey? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 He and Tindall where stood from about 55 minutes on screaming at them to push up, it’s hard when your captain is silent and the one who is the reason we drop deep Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mofo Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 I'm still behind him but it was the evident around 70-75mins that Dummet needed to come off, he was blowing out his arse! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagten Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 It's Brucey with pressing triggers. A killer would realise he wasn't right for the current squad and bin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wandy Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 He will be shocked to the core at the press and social media he gets this week. As has already been mentioned, he looks like he as aged in just two months of being here. He has nowhere to hide now and he has simply got to toughen the fuck up, drop the wasters like Lascelles and Shelvey and start getting wins because this could get really ugly for him.

toon25 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Everyone accepts that Howe's got a tough job rolling back years of rot and tactical ineptitude, but the fact that he doesn't seem able to adapt his style to the players that are available to him will see us going down.

duo Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Only thing we can judge Howe is on results and so far he's failing miserably. The club have backed him to the tune of £40 Mil and I saw zero improvement today. We had one shot on target today against a team in the bottom half. If we can't attack the likes of Watford what hope have we against the better teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Is he going to turn it around? Even with a hundred million spent in the window? I’m desperate for him to succeed because I really like him but I’m struggling here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menace Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) Comparing this guy to Rafa is hilarious, at least you saw what Rafa was trying to do. This guy has been poor. Edited January 15, 2022 by Menace Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantail Breeze Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Just now, ManDoon said: People get football opinions wrong all the time I don’t see how that’s some sort of gotcha. I think it was Mick who was anti pardew even when we were winning and nobody agreed with him. Rafa is a great manager but one who takes time to implement his style, hence why we went down imo. I’m hoping it’s the same with Howe and we improve as the season goes on. Problem is I still can’t ascertain what his style actually is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASM was blowing more and left Dummett exposed for a good 10 minutes before he came off. At that stage of the game you can’t allow that to happen. Dummett played well today, he missed a tackle for the goal but I’m not sure that was all down to him and Pedro shouldn’t have been able to get that much control on his header.

One again, man, we are not having a go at different opinions. How many times do we have to mention this. KI just alluded to this. And you keep on defending some of them as if we are oppressing them. FWIW, I was never attacking you. I never even had you in mind. If anything, I just find it strange that it is almost the exact people doing this, with the exception of Pilko, who defended Rafa at the time.

Jordan Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Fucking hell man, are we really turning on Howe already? Get a grip. The blokes been given a fucking useless squad that’s shot to shit, had a hard December and only been given two signings so far. We have no control over teams because our midfield is invisible. We need an athletic midfielder, a centre back who’s actually PL quality and we’ll be fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think there were about three of us who always disliked Pardew even when we were winning in that season where we finished 5th:myself, Mick and someone else I can’t remember. I really hope nothing bad happened to Mick, I never understood why he stopped posting unless it was something not to do with football as he was an absolute die hard poster Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
