St1pe Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Tactically I thought he got it really wrong today - same in some of the away games but most of the pressure has come from poor momentum from absolutely glaring chances we’ve missed and shit goals we’ve conceded. Not all of that is on Howe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izakaya Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Strange comments from Howe. Obviously they're media-perfect, shoulders the blame himself, and doesn't throw his team under the bus. But, they do sound like the words of a man who is about to commit hari-kari for the greater good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half of them are flavours of the week and Arsenal fans all wanted Arteta out after his first 3 seasons of 8th, 8th, 5th, before it finally clicked. You've made my point for me about patience there tbh. Exactly! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 3 minutes ago, HaydnNUFC said: Their 5th place season was viewed as an improvement/positive season despite missing out on CL in the last 3 games. And what about the other two? Howe’s shown himself based on the evidence thus far of incapable of managing/balancing multiple games a week regularly. For where we want to go, that’s unsustainable. Absolutely no chance Haydn, Arsenal fans were baying for Arteta's blood at the end of 21/22, I remember it vividly. It's subjective. The circumstances have shown that we're incapable of managing/balancing multiple games a week regularly. What you choose to attribute the blame to for that is the subjective part. You've chosen Howe and I haven't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collage Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 (edited) Thing is, yes it hasn’t worked this season, but we all know Howe’s style and when it works it’s fucking brilliant to watch. Who else can you say that about in todays football? Bielsa, possibly. Edited February 7 by Collage Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLvOR Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I'm pleased he changed things at half time, and then hooked Wissa who was stinking the place up. I think he has to find a way to drop Trippier, whether that's 3 at the back or just shifting Thiaw across until Miley/Tino are fit. Because Trippier is really fucking us over defensively. Those comments are good, but again, we've been shit for a while, so you'd like to think he'd already have noticed this and was working on a different set up/gameplan. Desperately hope he can turn this around, would be an awful shame for his time here to end in such a way (if he was let go in the summer, for instance).

Pilko Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 He always puts it on himself and blames nobody else and it's really commendable. He looks tired and worn out in those photos and I've no doubt he's working himself into the ground to get it right. The only part that is frustrating with this kind of talk is he talks about learning from mistakes and yet we see the same issues with the setup or ineffective approaches to games rear their heads constantly.

Colos Short and Curlies Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 5 minutes ago, Ben said: What other manager could cope better with a small squad and 2 games a week Thought the squad was full? Lopsided in terms of quality yes but not small in terms of numbers. Anyway comments like this annoy me as they rely on a new manager having the exact same players and playing a similar style. If that's the case then there may not be a better option than Eddie. But there absolutely are managers who could get more from the team this season just by simplifying the approach and absolutely managers who given £250m would have shaped the squad in a way that could have coped better. If not we are 100% losing Eddie to Madrid or Barcelona in the summer as he is the best in the world Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've chosen Howe and I haven't. There are other managers however that have lacked the credentials of their predecessor and have been a success, though. The manager that beat us today being one of a few. Howe is a factor in that, as he is in us being so dire to watch, that now showing in the home results after getting those results for 12 months away from home.
