thomas Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 i think he's safer hands than his last season would indicate and i assume he'll be extremely well backed in January. If he was a summer hire it would be massively underwhelming but considering the circumstances this appointment is closer to copacetic than catastrophe.

Agreed ?? and for those that were wondering: Definition of copacetic : very satisfactory Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has no relevant experience for the challenge here imo. We have to hope he can step up at a much bigger club with much bigger expectations and pressure. The challenge for now is taking over a club in a relegation battle with League One/Two level facilities and building from ground up. He does have relevant experience of that.

Stupid that any of that leaked out, but doesn't make him a saint, either and I imagine the pressure is on now in his current role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumbheed Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Had a bit more of a think about Howe getting the job and I'm starting to come round to it a bit more. After results, the next best measure of the quality of a manager is their ability to improve players so when you look through some of the players he's added value to then it's actually quite a sizeable and impressive list of players. If he can put some shine back on some of the players who've fallen by the wayside under Bruce, he could have some good success here. Having said that, my concerns about his supposed inabilty to coach a defensive unit still remain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjmc Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) While they are not at fault for the predicament we are in due to what has gone on before the new owners arrived they are now the only ones that could do anything about it. While I don't blame them I can understand why you may be annoyed as give us time and follow the process to get it right could lead us being adrift by double figures.

Could have such a gap to bridge by the time someone comes in and works with a poor squad to work out what works for us to grind results it won't matter how good the manager is right for the club. If we were midtable we all know very few would be replacing the underwear just yet as plenty of time but our situation darkens by the day and the coaches tasked with steadying the ship have failed. Has to be the balance but they have had weeks not days. Edited November 4, 2021 by nufcjmc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-more Mag Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 It's kind of weird/interesting that he played as a defender but his apparent area of weakness as a manager is around defense and his style is more attack oriented. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't necessarily mean that the defensive coaching is poor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacred Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Vor 16 Stunden sagte der Prophet: Ich frage mich, was mit Favre passiert ist. Vielleicht hat sie der Mangel an PL-Erfahrung abgeschreckt. Ich habe letzte Woche gelesen, dass Newcastle einen Manager will, der bereits Erfahrung als Trainer in England hat. Ich erinnere mich nicht an den Namen, der das sagte. Er sagte auch, dass es für einen Trainer, der noch nie in England trainiert hat, schwierig ist, dann eine Mannschaft zu übernehmen, die derzeit um den Abstieg spielt. Ich teile diese Aussagen nicht. Favre hat viele Stärken und eine davon ist, dass er eine Mannschaft aufbauen kann und die Spieler besser macht. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep us up, stabilise us for next season while keeping us out of a relegation battle, playing attacking football, there's a good base for the next guy and Howe's stock is higher than before. Everyone's a winner. Few other good videos.
