LFEE Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago (edited) 3 hours ago, HaydnNUFC said: Same tbh, not too many managers out there atm. I'd have said Nagelsmann if he hadn't signed that contract extension at Germany. Couldn’t see the NUFC fans warming to Nagelsmann. Has the feel of a satellite manager similar to Gullit. I also wouldn’t put him in the world class bracket (as the OP claimed we’d find not you). Same goes for Poch. His last few press conferences were a combination of quite a weak grasp of English still and ramblings under pressure about Coldplay and their song Fix You as he slowly lost the plot… and I love Coldplay! I worry how seriously some of you underestimate how good EH is along with being a great “fit” for NUFC. Let him build his dynasty.

Memphis Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago From Howe's perspective, he's got an entirely new management structure in place than when he started - and virtually all new just in the last few weeks. Amanda and Mehrdad are out, and while he's probably got a good relationship with Eales, he hasn't been reporting to him until very recently. And then add the new Sporting Director into the mix and you can see why he's a little bit unsettled at the moment. But let's remember that Howe is typically very thoughtful with his words. I don't think he was threatening anything or expressing any actual anger or disappointment; rather, I think he was making the important point that, while he's very happy now, were things to change in regards to what he is allowed to do, that could change. And since he doesn't quite know how the new structure will shake out, he's just going to wait and see. Makes perfect sense to me. Nothing more in it than that. If there was, the club website wouldn't run the interview where he said all of those things. We're all accustomed to worst case scenarios, but I just don't see much in this to fret over.

Howe hates and can't work with the new management team and is just waiting for the right job to leave us for.

He said it was very much a chilled out getting to know you can kind of vibe for the new management team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sense some of our fans are already getting entitled and not appreciating how good Eddie is for us . We would be after the same sort of managers that Chelsea and Man United were this summer , one appointed the bloke from Leicester who has a lot to prove and the other decided to keep the manager that everyone wanted sacked before the cup final and was a laughing stock all season as they couldn't get a better replacement.

Vinny Green Balls Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago 3 hours ago, TheBrownBottle said: Yep - Howe isn't exactly known for making unguarded comments. Clearly there is a concern for him - that doesn't mean he's handing in his P45 tomorrow, but it is also counter-intuitive for people to stick their heads in the sand and pretend that there is nothing to it. Or alternatively, everyone is bored and magnifying drama. It’s a bit ridiculous to say that we are sticking our heads in the sand when a reality show has been created out of everything so far this summer.

With Mitchell here, Poch would be the slam dunk name to come in, and I’m not keen on him at all. Just a sidewards step at best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly panic time, but Howe doesn’t make unguarded comments. The media talking like he’s about to leave is melodramatic, but it’s more that they’re making a lot out of something real rather than making shit up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
