The College Dropout Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 1 minute ago, Gallowgate Toon said: But I think that's an ethos issue not a shape one. The answer for 3 one-paced mids isn't to go down to 2 imo - you're just opening up more space unless you go exceptionally narrow in the wider positions or have very aggressive CBs (who need to be excellent at it). Easier for a defender to push up to a 10 or advancing 8 in a back 5 though. And in a 2 - both sit. So less chance of being turned in transition. Either way it’s Howe’s job to find a solution. What we have doesn’t work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Howe is done currently.. but it’s nothing that a said time away to recharge and upskill wouldn’t fix. But that doesn’t exist in the current way football structures work so he’ll likely just get sacked after a period of time.. it may not be the summer.. could be middle of next season and it’ll almost feel like everything he achieved was for nothing when the vibe turns on him.. and it will. I honestly think you’re barking up the wrong hill with the manager rotation idea, but it’s your view and that’s fine. Can’t see it working myself.

Menace Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 (edited) Getting tired of people calling fellow fans entitled for witnessing shite. That performance was horrific. The midfield was just getting ran through and our players immediately looked lethargic from the start of the game. Any criticism of Howe and it's automatically "entitled Saudi regime fans" or "Eddie deserves better" it's fucking boring man.

Can’t see it working myself. Oh it would never happen, I’m not deluded.. but Howe is just going to tread water if he stays in as is.. if he gets sacked, takes a break and goes off to find himself, he’ll do a solid job for someone else when he decides to step back in. I’d just rather that was something we’d have first option on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 6 minutes ago, Kid Icarus said: Honestly should be a lesson to learn. I can't imagine many on here don't rate Klopp. If it didn't work for him in an injury hit season... But that’s a weakness of his coaching. If they don’t win the league this seasons it’s because they still can’t really defend. He has injury hit seasons because he runs his players ragged. But we know the ceiling of Klopp. We don’t know Howe’s ceiling. Every manager has their weaknesses. I’m glad people are at least accepting that Howe has them and they are BAD.

dave s Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Well, everyone wanted Burn dropped and he did. Now we’re blaming other things. Fact is we had a weak midfield, and other players not playing their best against a very very strong team. Onwards we go.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do folk reckon it's just rotten luck? Most good sides play and train with intensity though. Even the likes of Bournemouth and Luton are doing it, Leeds etc previously. You'd expect niggles and some muscle injuries, but they've coincided with some freak injuries and Tonali being a radge gabling addict. Obviously correlation but I wouldn't expect this level to be the norm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
