Just had a flick through to look for our longest unbeaten run in the PL. Last ten of 1996/97 and first two games of 1997/98 appears to be the record. Done 11 a couple times; once under Keegan and then in Pardew 5th season. Means avoiding defeat in all these next away games to match it. 

Would be nice but we’re away to Chelsea next so let’s not get carried away just yet.  Get a result there and it’s definitely on though.

Pep, Klopp and Arteta, but that's it after them. Fair discussion who had been better between Arteta and Howe like, but I think would have Arteta just above wor Eddie 

Have any of them exceeded expectations like Howe though? He litwrally had us in top 4 form. Whereas that's where they're expected to be

He'd be closest for me 

 

Depends where Wolves finish the season but Bruno Lage will be in with a shout if they get into Europe. He's done well with a squad of similar quality to West Ham and they are extremely good defensively.

Honestly don’t know enough about wolves to be honest but maybe. They have had good results of late I guess.

:lol: Poor little old Southampton. Just can't compete with sovereign states blowing them out of the water with such earth-shattering signings as Chris Wood, Dan Burn and Matt Targett. How could they have ever kept up with us?

I could write a short novel about how brilliant this man is and what he's done with us so far, but I'll just leave it at this.

 

Steve Bruce has not won 3 consecutive Premier League games since December 2007. Eddie Howe has managed it at Newcastle twice in 2 months.

 

 

 

Please do write that novel; my appetite for consuming content about Eddie and Newcastle right now is more than the vast internet can satisfy!

I wanted Emery, but looking back, he would have been the wrong fit at the time in terms of off the field stuff which Howe has been superb at like team bonding, little touches in the dressing room, keeping players who don’t play often or are injured involved, working 24-7 seemingly on video analysis, one to ones etc. Emery is someone you get when you have an established team wanting to win things or compete.

Remember being in the “why do we never get a new manager bounce?” brigade when we got to Christmas having won just one game.

 

Having a manager who comes in, completely changes everything on and off the pitch and finally sees a sustainable run of form beats a “bounce” any day.

Massive fan of the time wasting he has instilled. 

 

Very smart. If we are under the cosh, find a 30 second or 1 minute interval to reset ourselves and have a breather. Break up the momentum and flow. Suppsoe it's why we are seeing longer extra time spells.

Wouldn't swap him for anyone In the league other than Pep and Klopp.

 

I'd add Tuchel to that list tbf.  I think he's the best tactician out of all of them.

Wouldn't swap him for anyone right now. That's not to say I think he's a better manager than Pep, Klopp and Tuchel, but with his work ethic he could become better. Really excited to see how far he can take us.

Without getting too poetic I cannot describe how this man has changed my love for the game. The takeover lifted the clouds, Howe brought out the sun.

 

When the takeover went through it was exciting but we still had Bruce and it was still a chore to watch our games. When Howe took over I found myself watching every match I could, not just us but every team in the league, I've wanted to take in as much as I can, understanding the way teams play, their form, their results. Howe has lit a fire underneath me I thought I lost 12 years ago.

When I watched those behind the scenes Bournemouth training camps, I knew Eddie was the right man.

 

He has the two most important things to succeed as a manager; an incredible work ethic and a drive to learn.
