Is Potter actually any good? They reckon he's barely on the training pitch and doesn't instruct his players well. That's why the Chelsea players wanted rid.

He would get another job in the top 10 easy. What he done in his first year won't be forgotten.

Looks like Potter’s achievements were quickly forgotten …

Controversial if he did leave (I don't think for one he will and for two the FA would pay the fee), would it be any different to what Ashworth did?


Yes, very much. He’s not jumping ship to a rival but to the national team of his country. Not that I think it will happen.

He done okay without breaking into Europe.

Plus the manner in which it would be done, and the shelf life of the two job roles.

The only possible way he goes to England is if the FA give him an ultimatum - 'take it now or we'll never ask you again' 

 

Highly, highly unlikely they'll do that or that he'll go. Can never say 100% but I'd be astonished, and canny disappointed, if he gave up what he's got here for the England role

I'm really not worrying about this, but if it did happen I would be disappointed, but not necessarily in Eddie. I think I'd be looking back at the Amanda situation first etc. 

 

Personally though, I'm convinced he's fully focused on the story that's left to be written here. As someone else said, he'd be looking to make any rejection as sensitively and diplomatically as possible, however, so we shouldn't be expecting a big immediate announcement that he has zero interest.

I do find it amusing that absolutely no one had a clue that he'd signed a contract extension, but they're aware he's open to the England job.

£15m towards ffp?

If there's one criticism of Howe, it's that he demands constant intensity.

 

I'd like to see England implement Howe's press in the heat and humidity of USA and Mexico 2026. Especially after the players have been flogged to bits by their clubs all seasons. How many times did we say "we look knackered" last season? Imagine England. 

 

Silly talk on multiple levels this man :lol:

Eddie would be ripped to shreds by the scum media, bringing up his involvement with Saudi Arabia.  Leave well alone and fulfill your success here at Newcastle.............. is my advice.

Disappointing that both the club and Howe haven't come out with an official statement within my self imposed timescale.

Just a thought experiment, how does Howe set up an England team? 

Magnetic roundels on a scaled down table topped sized pitch made of a light weight metal.
