Weezertron Posted December 30, 2025 Share Posted December 30, 2025 Once Wissa is fully fit, we can try hoying him on the wing occasionally seeing as all our dedicated wingers are absolutely lifting (aside from lovely Harvey Barnes) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted December 30, 2025 Share Posted December 30, 2025 Should be banging the door down to get a left back signed. Not a chance Hall can play the majority of games between now and end of the season with zero cover. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we need a LB desperately and I'm sure the powers that he knows this. Howe clearly does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 30, 2025 Share Posted December 30, 2025 A professional manager isn't really going to be thinking his team is bound to throw away a lead like, not in the way that we do. If he was standing there shitting himself then something really would be wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 30, 2025 Share Posted December 30, 2025 Yeah interesting. I feel like he's pulled the curtain back a wee bit in recent times (relatively speaking, as he always keeps his cards so close to his chest). Maybe it's a symptom of being under more pressure than he ever has been whilst in the job. Not that he wasn't composed. Just the insight into why he didn't make any changes (the stuff about character building) isn't necessarily what I'd expect him to usually share.

Mountain Posted December 30, 2025 Share Posted December 30, 2025 His tone seems like he's acknowledging we are a bit shit but doesn't really know what to do to change that so just wants to enjoy the win. Which is normal, most premier league managers seem the same at the moment, it's a really bizarre season. Look at the Chelsea manager, spent like half a billion and they are pretty dull. I just hope Eddie can come up with something. He must know deep down something is seriously wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

olliemort Posted December 30, 2025 Share Posted December 30, 2025 Eddie’s a bullshitter at the best of times, there’s no way he felt comfortable where Burnley missed chance after chance for basically the last 40min of the match .

Think it was more that he was buzzing with the win but the second question from the in-house media guy was "why were we rubbish" and he understandably couldn't be fucking arsed with that. I don't think he actually believes he's clueless. He says towards the end that it's "all about our evolution as a team." He sees a team that's changing, not one that's 'a bit shit.'

I got a different vibe from him when saying that part Overall I thought his interview was fair and accurate Big 3 points for us, I think it was pretty unanimous tonight was about getting the 3 points any which way so it's a bit weird some people are still being absolute doom merchants Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really didn't create that many really good chances, don't remember any in the last 20 minutes while WE WERE SHITTING OURSELVES hanging on to a lead.

Didn’t like how much ball we gave them but the main reason I was nervous is the number of points we’ve lost late in games recently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted December 31, 2025 Share Posted December 31, 2025 With the season we've had so far, the fact we are four points off 5th spot is remarkable. Howe can count himself quite lucky with this, any other season and we'd most likely be adrift in midtable and 9/10 points off UCL places. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
