    Eddie Howe

    Its been a few games now.

    Is he better than Bruce? I dont know. I would say its much of the same.

    We should check on our options in the summer. I think its possible to find a better manager for this project.

    Ah, Viking, man....

    The style of football is far better but Howe can only do so much with what he's got. Bruce and Howe shouldn't be in the same book never mind in the same chapters or on the same page when you're comparing managers.

    I do care about style, but even more about result. Howe isnt delivering on either.

    Hes supposed to be playing attacking football. I have seen none of that. No attack pared with a ****ty defense.

    We had one shot on Watford at SJP!

    I always felt a heavy tanking was possible under SB. I dont feel that with EH.

    We needed that extra CB today.

    The only problem is his love for useless players like lascelles and longstaff etc the football and possession is a lot better then brucey.

    Steve Bruce finished 12th and 13th, and reached quarter finals in the cup.

    I'm 100% sure that Howe wouldnt mange that under the Ashley regime.

    The question is, is Howe the right man in the chimpo? I think we should at least check our options in the summer. Should be possible to find someone better, for a long term project, re-buiding the club from the bottom.

    Why EH keeps starting Longstaff and Lascelles is beyond me, maybe he has Jones whispering in his ear ?

    Footballs under Eddie is already much better than under Bruce. What will make it or break it with him for me is dropping Lacelles and replacing him as Captain. At the very least just dropping him. In his defence though at the moment he doesn't really have many other options at his disposal. We need a new CB in this week and he need to replace Lacelles next game.

    He started Lascelles and Longstaff and to me that’s a terrible decision

    I just listened to his interview and he said “we will dust ourselves down” FFS he even sounds like Bruceasaurus now

    I haven’t seen any improvement at all with the exception of Joelinton even though he scored today ASM has been shocking.
