Hojlund, excellent target man striker with strength and pace as well. He’ll continue to develop. Garnacho is a fantastic player. Onana, poor keeper, your defence needs work, you need more quality in midfield. I think Ten Hag is shite in the transfer market. Hojlund was a good buy, Mason Mount shocking, Antony very poor buy, Onana, very poor buy. Those are major warning signs against Ten Hag Onana has massively improved lately, so I'd be giving him a chance. It's his first season, and we've had 21 different centre back combinations. Likewise with Mount, he hasn't been shocking, he's just been injured. Is Tonali a shocking signing because he's been unavailable? Antony, fully agree despite what he did yesterday. Our defence is just missing one more quality centre back. The likelyhood is that we won't renew Varane (sadly) and will sign a top quality centre back in the summer. Dalot (who will probably be our player of the season), Martinez, new CB and Shaw is a quality defence IMO. There is a lot made of how bad we're supposed to be defensively, but we've the fourth best defence in the league and that's with nearly two of them injured at all times.

I do massively rate Dalot too. Let’s see how your summer window goes and where we’re at this time next year with Ten Hag, Howe and Poch.

Kanji Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Prefer to put them into just tiers/groups with likely Arteta, Emery never going below that 2nd one, Poch swings to 3rd one often but he’s achieved a great deal in his career. The entire 3rd tier goes up and down and so on. Pep Klopp Arteta Emery Poch Howe ETH Ange De Zerbi Moyes O’Neil Franck Silva Iraola Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geogaddi Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 (edited) Not done them all but for the bigger clubs I would rank like this . Not much in it though and I wouldn't swap Eddie for anyone barring the top two. Pep Klopp Arteta Emery Howe Postecoglou De Zebri Pochettino Erik Ten Hag Arteta needs to win the league or champions league to be put in the same bracket as Pep and Klopp. Edited March 18 by Geogaddi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The football they've been playing has been quality. Arteta has been class I'm not denying that, but I'm basing Emery as higher due to his career to date, Emery has won multiple European trophies, and have had success at multiple clubs. As good as Arteta has been, he's only won the FA Cup in his managerial career to date, and his clubs have fallen short over the last two seasons, that said I do think Arteta (along with Alonso) will be the best in class of the next generation of manager.

Oh aye sorry. I was still in Bandit's mindset of judging them based on this season. I'd say it's harsh to have Arteta anywhere lower than top if we're basing it on now.

I think its clear Emery is well above Howe, just look at his resume. I rate Frank, they have had by far the worst injuries in the league this year and they have still done pretty well, always give the big teams a game and thats due to tactics. They are on a brutal run, but they have their second best player out, the worst keeper in the league and their full defence out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 (edited) Personally think it's this as things stand. I'm much more about bang for your buck, so achievements within context rather than just achievements alone, hence Klopp above Guardiola, Howe above, say, Postecoglou. Jurgen Klopp Pep Guardiola Unai Emery Mikel Arteta Eddie Howe Ange Postecoglou Mauricio Pochettino Erik Ten Hag David Moyes Roberto De Zerbi Marco Silva Sean Dyche Thomas Frank Nuno Espírito Santo Gary O’Neil Andoni Iraola Rob Edwards Vincent Kompany Oliver Glasner Chris Wilder Edited March 18 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're focusing on trophies, which is fair enough. Mourinho has trophies though, and I'd take Howe every day of the week over him. What Howe achieved last year and at Bournemouth was miracle work IMO. If Ten Hag was sacked and the fans were given a choice between Emery or Howe, 99/100 would pick Howe.

I think qualifying for Conference League would be a good season all things. Hence the B+.
