The College Dropout Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Polar opposite to ETH today. The lads all knew what they had to do and fully motivated to play at their best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Still somehow manages to amaze me He's put out some dodgy looking line ups in the past and pulled off results, but that was his Citizen Kane. Taking such a threadbare, lopsided looking team featuring Ritchie, Dummett, Krafth, and Targett at LW to Old Trafford where, as bad as they might have been over the years, we've won once since Tony Green was playing and win 3 zip partly by playing lopsided ( ) is surreal. He's really good like, fucking hell. A reminder of the team he's just put out at Old Trafford. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 It's absolutely frightning to me that our second string can go to old Trafford, smash them 3-0 and I'm not remotely surprised. It's the new norm for me to be thrilled by these performances but never surprised. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern Geordie Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 I know it’s been said plenty of times, but he’s such a class act when he gives an interview or a press conference. Humble, focused, driven, and always comes across as so proud of his players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
number37 Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 It's as if he treats cup matches like he's doing a round on Taskmaster after having watched the first series to get to grips with how it works. I can't believe how much harmony and unity he's brought to the whole squad. Whether you're playing every week or hardly playing at all, every player is primed and ready to play their part when called upon without bearing a grudge or showing an ego. They have all bought into wanting to drive the club forwards and upwards. It's very healthy environment of competition and encouragement. I didn't even know it was possible to purposefully use players who started for us in the Championship, to get the absolute best out of them and to go to Old Trafford and comfortably win 3-0. We were in the Championship in 2017 . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Think we really see the benefit of the way he trains the squad in games like these. Everyone bang up for it can only be because of the intensity of our training. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Thing with Howe is there's no ego and he's always learning, he's a phenomenal coach and improves average players. His systems mean we are so aggressive, organised and pressing and crucially taking more of our chances when they come. Fucking love him and hope he's the one to get us that trophy. The improvement in some of our players is absolutely astonishing. They just know what they are doing and while we may be let down in quality sometimes the effort and intent is always there.

nufc4eva Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Playing Dummet and Kraft at centre half and the cunts barely did anything, Dubravka had a couple of saves the whole match and that's pretty normal for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Season form for 10 mostly hard PL fixtures, 3 games in CL group of death, and now Man City home and Man Utd away in the Carabao. P15 W8 D3 L4 That's in eleven games vs. top half of PL or better opposition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

janpawel Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 2 left backs and 2 right backs in defence, with 1 game between them in about 15 months. No striker That was half our C team never mind B team ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Started with Matt Targett and Matt Richie in a front 3 away at Old Trafford and won 3-0. No words. Get the copper melted lads, we need a new statue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holloway Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Can,t remember a single clout from Dummet, or an aimless punt up the wing. Eddie has given the less talented lads a sense of purpose, you can see it a mile off. He is looking every inch a man on his way to the top Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 The man is a legend in the making. Who else could put out a team with Dummett and Krafth playing centre backs when it's neither's natural position, play Matt Ritchie when he can barely run these days, and beat Man U at their own ground 3-0? It's unbelievable. It's like Keegan's been reborn in the modern era with an infusion of ice running through his veins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
