mighty__mag Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) I guess you have to start somewhere, City had Mark Hughes, before appointing Mancini. If it ends up being a gap filler, like Howe, we stay up, then target better managers next season. I'm starting to think they look like mugs, bringing in no footballing hierarchy immediately, but, keeping on Charnley like he's got any football know how,the guy came to us with zero football background.

KaKa Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) Wow, this is wild. Can't wait to see what happens next If Howe comes in I'll get behind him. His next job was always going to be the one to see what he was really made of, so if he does join here's hoping he ends up as more of a Rodgers or Potter. Be good if we also get a quality DOF that can support him, as I think he would benefit massively from that kind of setup. Some growing pains at the minute but genuinely still excited to be moving on from the previous era, which has left us in such a terrible state that so much needs sorting.

Best case scenario right now imo. Would take him over any of the other names left that are linked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaqen Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 19 minutes ago, Shearergol said: In 2010. From Hereford. Strange example. Now list his premier league signings. I don't think people appreciate how much harder it is to make good signings as a small lower end premier League club. Would be totally different to attracting players to us. Norwich spent over £60m this summer and don't look any better for it. He made some bad signings for sure but is wouldn't necessarily be put off by them. I mean Emery paid £80m for Pepe.

TopSnagger Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Guess he decided to play it safe instead of taking a risk at Newcastle with hugely changing demands from the owners from safety to top 6 in a few years probably. Just shows he's not the right man for the job in a way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awaymag Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) So if Emery had been appointed - he would have been given all the time by the fans as he is a big name and we will have made a step up. Howe, if is appointed basically will have 3 games (the easier ones) and if he doesn't win them, then the fans will turn really quickly as no one really believes in him.

TopSnagger Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 God, please don't be Eddie Howe, only because I don't want to hear the media hype him up, please be someone foreign like Benitez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've also written Emery chose not to leave Villareal, as he has a good relationship with the owners and the players, which seems fair enough. Similar to Rodgers at Leicester.

Bruce got given time by the fans, as did McClaren. Whoever comes in, be that Howe or Martinez will be given time by the fans and rightly so. They should and will get the rest of the season imo.

This makes me believe this was only an enquiry by nufc that somehow got media traction and blown out of proportion. Maybe they turned emerys head at first but then he has decided he is loyal to villareal. Mountain out of a mole hill Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
