Billy Pilgrim Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 1 minute ago, Raconteur said: Gotta say, after watching those Tifo and Sky clips of Eddie’s tactics, I fear for ASM. 4-4-2 (or 4-4-1-1) with narrow, up and back wingers - unless he can get a tune out of ASM as a #10 ASM could actually use some proper coaching if he wants to kick on and be one of the best, and if that involves getting back and defending he will have to do it. I don’t think 442 in any of its forms is a good idea but I expect Howe to have the sense to look at what he has and start from there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone said, we’ve barely got 11 PL starters, so picking the players should be easy. Just don’t see how they fit in a 4-4-1-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 What a way to start a new era - appoint a bloke who the old regime would have eventually chosen anyway and who one of our worst starters under Bruce gives a glowing reference for. The more I read, the more it feels like the new lot are a bunch of bloody amateurs. Yeah, early days, don't know we're born, takes time, trust the process, get behind him, etc etc. I'm finding that really hard so far, they've done nothing to help alleviate the lingering malaise. Even punting Bruce they've made an arse of by taking too long to do it and to replace him. Expect nobody will like this post but just calling it as I see it. Would love to be wrong.

The Prophet Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Do people actually think Howe would have come here under Ashley? Its totally irrelevant and exactly why Bruce was about 8th choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 The fact the old regime apparently would've gone for him too doesn't say anything about his record. They went for Rafa too. And I'm a pretty doubtful Howe would've come here under Ashley anyway, which is a key difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They took the club over with their trousers around their ankles by all accounts. I don’t think they expected things to be waived through the way it was once the BeIN stuff was sorted. They’ve had to try and get their own people in, their own manager, etc. Within a month we’re half way there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froggy Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 The fact that some people are disappointed with Howe after what you went through with Pardew, Bruce etc. is absolutely fucking baffling to me.

Vinny Green Balls Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Once again, yes, there is some valid criticism toward how the new regime got started, but this shit is just utterly ridiculous.

Tsunami Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Yeah I don’t think he’d have under Ashley with promises of new wheelie bins and paddling pools. We need to get a DOF in now and give the fans something to look forward too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
