Looking for positives if it does end up being Howe - he's got experience with working under similar facilities as we currently own, he's got experience of the league, he already knows some of the players. I mean, maybe we've all just got a bit carried away with thinking that money could instantly solve everything and bring in the best non-playing and playing staff. To be honest, there's so much work to be done, our current infrastructure, our club, is in such a mess, we're so behind that it's going to take more time that we'd tricked ourselves into thinking. The new owners aren't Ashley, they've got lots of money and they want to win in the long run, I think some people need to cut them some slack, they're very new to owning a football club and it'll take some learning through mistakes on their part most likely. I think the key is that we concentrate on their long-term vision, this season was always a right off and if next season is as well then so what, some of the games I enjoyed most in recent years were when we were actually winning most games in our attempt to come back up from the championship anyways. We'll get it right, we just need to be patient.

Fuck it- get Gerrard. Don’t care if he fucks off to Liverpool in a year or three. By then he’ll have done the job and we can move on to better anyway. Much more of a pull than Howe and I’d like to think has more experience about putting the infrastructure in place, having been there as a player under various world class managers. 

Has an excellent number 2 aswell who is very highly regarded in coaching circles.

 

Out of the domestic candidates he’s the one I’d go for.

It's going to be hard to find a manager who doesn't have some sort of failure in their history. Obviously a different level, but Emery also couldn't get Arsenal out of winless streak and by most accounts had totally lost the locker room by the end.

Or maybe he applied for them all and failed. Or maybe nobody called for him as they thought he wasn't good enough. It's a whataboutery sort of answer as will never know, but it is odd how nobody has gone for him despite some feeling he is "solid and good" PL manager. 


What I’m saying is, we don’t know that nobody has ‘gone for him’.

Whoever we get in for DOF will do most of that heavy lifting, to be honest.


I actually think Howe will come across well when he meets the players, it’s just that his name won’t attract them. But hopefully that’s a minor setback.

Aye, injuries is a classic manager excuse so I would have to see it properly to judge it I think.

You realize one bad season doesn't make a bad manager right? 

Klopp left Dortmund when they where bottom.

Guardiola finished 4th and trophy-less in his first season at Man City.

Pochetino got sacked at Spurs with them in the bottom half.

Hell Rafa failed in China. 

 

Managers are allowed the odd blotch on there CV.

I see Norwich might want Howe too. Oh the panic.

 

That's the only thing that bothers me to some degree about Howe, he seems to be a 'decent' manager that also-ran teams consider. He's not really a name that generates interest from clubs that are looking at mid-table upwards... though I guess, funds aside, we're probably firmly in the 'also-ran' clutch of teams with how badly we've been neglected for so long.

Hallo Schade, dass Favre für Sie kein Thema mehr ist. Auch wenn er keine Erfahrung in der Premier League hat, ist er taktisch einer der Besten. Der Fußball, den er spielen lässt, ist eine starke Defensive mit schnellem Spiel nach vorne. In Dortmund hatte die Abwehr Probleme, es gab viele individuelle Fehler von Spielern während des Spiels. Das Spiel nach vorne war sehr gut mit vielen Toren. Um auf den Punkt zu kommen, braucht favre die richtigen Spieler für sein Spielsystem und er hatte sie in Dortmund nicht in der Defensive. Ich denke, er könnte in Newcastle einen Unterschied machen.

And you can say that and that's fine, my point is after a year and plenty of other PL positions being available and him not landing any, that is odd for such a solid and good PL manager.

 

He's come out and publicly stated he's not just going to jump into a random job, it has to be the right fit for him, and for the club.

Hello, it's a shame that Favre is no longer an issue for you. Even if he has no experience in the Premier League, tactically he is one of the best. The football he lets play is a strong defense with fast play forward. In Dortmund the defense had problems, there were many individual mistakes made by players during the game. The game up front was very good with a lot of goals. To get to the point, favre needs the right players for his game system and he didn't have them on the defensive in Dortmund. I think he could make a difference in Newcastle.
