Vinny Green Balls Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 As I've said before, something seems so right about having a young, charismatic manager who can grow with an ambitious club. Maybe it's too much taking me back to the early 90's and the start of the Keegan era. Still, I'm sold on this experiment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I thought but the more I read of him he seems to legitimately be the long term solution. He's football mad, he'll have learned a lot with his time at Bournemouth. Forward thinking and will keep up with contemporary ideas in the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting question I was asked , if we go down this season who’s fault is it? Depends how we go down (if we do) if the level of performance doesn't lift then a lot will be on the new owners/team. If we noticeably improve and go down fighting I think people will feel that the Ashley rot had set too deep to be fixed in November. It's hard to imagine things won't improve but less certain if that will be anywhere near enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we progress year on year then I’m happy for him to stay as long as it continues to work. Who is to say he won’t grow as we do and essentially become the next top manager?

Geogaddi Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 (edited) It’s mental really but I Was massively underwhelmed by Howe at first but the more I have read and heard about him over the last few days the more I have liked him , now I love the fucker and genuinely think he is going to do something special here . He is the perfect fit and I am genuinely glad Unai turned us down. Edited November 8, 2021 by Geogaddi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't a PFM nor just a safe pair of hands to keep us up. He is a very focussed, progressive manager who has used the time since he left Bournemouth watching football, even going to spend time with Diego Simeone. In at 6AM everyday, leaves late in the day. One thing though is, it may not be instant so if we don't get a result against Brentford don't wet the bed. It may take a few games to get the players conditioned as a minimum but he has come in early so has a lot of time. I agree with a few others, I can see him here in 5-10 years. I was against it until I started researching him properly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
enandane Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 (edited) Not a 'big name' but the more i read about him and watch videos of his tactics etc, the more it seems like it could be a great fit, he also seems obsessed with managing a bit like Rafa, he will be getting 100% backing from me. The revolution starts now. Howe-ay the fucking Lads! Edited November 8, 2021 by enandane Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elbee909 Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 1 hour ago, Colos Short and Curlies said: The media are going to struggle here. Young English manager who they have bigged up in the past. A NUFC fan base that is fully behind a Southern manager Saudi Arabia and us being evil incarnate I think they'll be fine. They seem perfectly okay with other clubs dispensing with managers after 9 or 10 games of not so great results recently, Everton fans saying that 'know where you live' to Rafa, and continually pushing for OGS to be sacked due to results not matching the 'stature of a club like Man Utd', but no, it's still NUFC that hounded out Bruce after 2+ years of garbage. The media don't seem to mind cognitive dissonance at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Wouldn't even worry if he did start Hendrick as alluded to. He wouldn't use him like Dyche or Bruce. Look at what he did for Surman and Gosling, who were nowhere near PL CM's before he managed them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking back at the midfielders he had at his disposal at Bournemouth is very encouraging indeed. I'm sure he could get a lot more out of our bunch for sure.
