One thing I was curious about after listening to the podcast. 

 

In the podcast it gets mentioned that during his time out of management, he spent time at about 8 different clubs to learn. 

 

We know Atletico Madrid was one of them, do we know any of the others?

He is friends with the ex Liverpool sporting director Michael Edwards so maybe Liverpool was one ?

“Howe travelled to Spain to observe life at Atletico Madrid and Rayo Vallecano; watched the England national football team being put through their paces at St George's Park; and took in a training session and sat in on a couple of coaching meetings at rugby union side Saracens.

 

It was a while ago now but Howe also embarked on a fact-finding mission at Liverpool who Newcastle, of course, come up against at St James' Park on Saturday. Howe met a number of key figures at the club, including outgoing technical director Michael Edwards and academy director Alex Inglethorpe, and the 44-year-old certainly learned a lot from that particular visit.”

Intensity is our identity is the title of Pep Ljnders book and seems to be our mantra also.

 

I also feel like we have some similarities with the way Liverpool played in Klopp's early days. We've never really switched from the 4-3-3 formation since Howe implemented it and each position has a specific role and all the players know their roles perfectly. Klopp didn't have the best players in the league at the time but he found success with sticking to one style of play against any opposition they faced. 

 

I think although we stick to one formation and high intensity pressing trying to win the ball high up the pitch, managers still haven't found a way to specifically counter that. It reminds me of liverpool at their peak (obviously we are not on that level yet) in that no teams really had any specific way to counter their play style, even if teams would manage to win against them at times.

Would love to know more details about all this stuff, I find it fascinating. 

 

Although understandably managers and sporting directors won't be giving away their trade secrets. 

 

I feel like it also speaks to Howe's character that clubs like Liverpool and Atletico Madrid welcomed him in.

Howe has said he gets the biggest enjoyment from coaching players and making them better.  That's not what a national manager does, I don't think there is shiny shite in hells chance that he takes a national managers job

The press and the pundits hate the fact that we are doing so well and are trying to unsettle things. Bruno to Real, Miggy to Man U, Howe for the England job and so it goes on. All of the rumours totally unsubstantiated of course. Why would any of them want to leave the biggest and best club in the world

Can I get some page references for some anti-Howe takes? Trying to remember what my take was, think I was fairly supportive once Emery dropped out but I think most in the board were, weren’t they?

 

I think 560 onwards had some belters but our situation wasn't great (think it was immediately after the Watford result)

Wow, I can't remember it being so bad that most of the posters had given up on him or turned but there's almost universal despair on those pages

Everyone now going back to page 560 praying they said nothing bad.

 

Maybe that's why HTT left.

It’s almost as if it was naive to think this current squad could play their way out of this. This is not a group of players that can play attacking, possession based football.


How wrong it was ?

Some absolutely horrendous takes. Some people even saying Bruce would have done better. Should have been bannings dished out all around. 

Aye, reading back it was quite brutal

 

I remember being surprised at how impatient people were, especially considering we were the fanbase that suffered Mike Ashley
