I disagree.
Most of the problems this season are down to three or four factors in my opinion.
- only two stikers in the squad, both with iffy fitness records.
- our big summer signing getting banned for betting.
- freak injuries to key players leaving him with a fatigued squad and limited choices.
- not changing things that aren't working.
- some of the squad simply aren't good enough.
How many of those factors are purely down to Howe? Should he carry the can for decisions that he has no control over?
