Orphanage Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 1 minute ago, dcmk said: Sure. Sure. Because we are so inept I guess? I guess it was a different team that had beaten Man City, Man Utd, Paris SG in cup competitions already this season. All with a squad decimated with injuries. I admire your optimism but its not gonna happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 14 minutes ago, The College Dropout said: We don’t look a well coached side. Agree, sadly. Too many look like they don’t have a clue what their role is. We all know it: we either break teams down by attrition through running or we are almost a submissive presence in the game. There’s no just plan if plan A doesn’t work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 12 minutes ago, Amir_9 said: As much as we can all agree he's earnt the right to start next year, he really needs to shake up his ideas and quick because we were so close to ending our season there and just limping across the finish line and we still have 3 months to go. See I disagree with this. He's earned the right to have a clear decision on next season made early in the summer He's either got the whole of next season barring a total unforeseen disaster and therefore the summer going balls deep in Howeball and who he wants Or the board decide that this wasn't good enough and we move on. Being a little indecisive does Howe no favours as the summer will be compromised and we know that we can get a better manager in during the summer than we can in September.

greydos Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Gordon can drill a corner fair play! I’d pay good money to see one of his corners met by Sir Les. The power on that header could kill a man! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Just now, Sibierski said: Lack of changes and doubling down again on formation during game. Got over line, but same issues persist. Now more players are coming back, we should be seeing different things moving forward, as clearly our way from last season has lost its edge, which is fair, it peaked with players like Longstaff/Almiron etc. so it’s time to evolve the style. Need to work on better patterns of play IMO. Tino at RB was great, as he had the individualistic ability to just drive with the ball, which then creates space. Just does leave us exposed on turnover as we have no recovery pace in midfield/defence, so something to work on structure wise to mitigate it to allow that extra dimension in attack. Showed with corners that others can take them too. It will take a week or two, those coming back aren't match sharp. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcmk Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Just now, The College Dropout said: What does that have to do with Eddie Howe? The best in the business couldn't motivate his under achieving team last season. So it's a weird argument to bring up. You can clearly see the effort from all the players today. So I would even argue he can and is motivating them. Just they aren't playing well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the time being biggest thing he needs to quickly fix is the amount of goals we are hemorrhaging otherwise its a midtable finish and a knock out of the next round. If him not sorting the goals we are conceding isn't sorted by early next year, I just can't see the board sticking with him.

The College Dropout Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 A lot of our game is dependent on confidence and we don’t have any atm. It makes us tepid in and out of possession. We second guess ourselves. Weve never been an Ange type team where you can see lots of possession play from the training ground. It’s more getting that fire in your belly, high anticipation, sharp play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't see an improvement - or at least signs of something turning around (and we have a favourable fixture list to do this now) - then I really don't see the point in waiting to September to make a decision.

Someone said the players were awful and didn’t look motivated. I simply replied that it’s Howe’s job to motivate the players. Players not looking arsed doesn’t absolve Howe of responsibility as the person was suggesting. That is all. If you think the players looked sharp and motivated - great.

Decky Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Performances lately have been disappointing but the season isn’t over yet. Still in the FA Cup and still just 2 points from 7th. He needs to get the team firing again and if he does we’ll be in Europe again next season. We’re two wins from a final and one from Wembley, we’re so close to another great season and we’ve had probably the worst injury crisis at the club in living memory. Howe and the players know they have to improve so keep the faith and let’s see how the final stretch of the season goes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
