I'm sure @Heron and the others in Wor Flags who do such stellar work don't need input from the likes of me, but for the love of god please don't start putting this AI-generated noncery on any flags :lol:

Better bin that new surfer... :lol:

I somehow hold a different view. It reallly depends on what the next tough run would be like. If that’s a carbon copy of last season then I am afraid that’s the ceiling of Howe, which we probably need to accept since we couldn’t find someone better

And here I was thinking that you were such an optimistic poster.

 

With all of your pessimism, you've been consistently wrong. Is it worth inhabiting that space then?

Howe would be an absolute disaster, we can't defend for shit and his Bournemouth teams conceded loads as well. We'd probably be best getting a firefighter in to keep us up then start again in the summer.

What an absolute disaster it’s been

Just find it quite depressing that after the takeover we are discussing Eddie Howe as the best candidate for the job.

Been quite a depressing few years

You and others probably got my message wrong.

 

There are a lot of similarities re this run and the performance in 22-23 season, which shows how GOOD Howe is, when we are able to give him a solid starting eleven and injury free squad. I don’t think it’s something related to changes Howe made to his own approach (not his tactics, he did change that). As I have said, we probably can’t get anyone better than him outside.

 

However, next season, we will be back to Europe, or even ECL. The extremely demanding schedule will hit again. The “solid starting eleven and injury free squad” will likely be gone, and we don’t have capacity under PSR to massively improve our squad depth. It waits to be seen how Howe would and could take this challenge, and I don’t think he can perform magic to change the outcome (lower league position, fatigue squad, cup run without results), which is what I mean, his ceiling. It doesn’t necessary be Howe’s fault. It is just what he can do at his best under the environment we are in.

 

1 year later, if we really crashed out again in the early stage of ECL, and staying in the middle of the league table, instead of calling Howe out, may be the club, the fans, and Howe himself, should evaluate thoroughly what the squad is really capable of and make decisions to give up some competitions and focus on just 1 or 2. That’s what I mean, “accept the truth”.

 

Instead of going all-out in all competition and crashed out due to fatigue, I would rather just focusing on league and give up all others, including ECL. With our starting eleven, and just focusing on those 38 matches, we have legit chance to challenge for title. 
 

Got it? Is it pessimistic to say we can get the league title under Howe?

My word, all this energy on made up scenarios for next season

 

Just enjoy the run we are on, be patient when it ends and worry about next season when it arrives
