  1. This philosophy will be handsomely rewarded when we have the players available and fresh again.
  2. I think comparing things based on outcomes is the worst thing about being a football fan by far. Very TalkSport.
  3. Was PSG his only job when he could realistically win the league?
  4. If Howe saved a club from relegation, qualified for the Champions League, then qualified for Europa despite an unprecedented injury crisis he'd get a B+. Generous.
  5. Howe has been at two clubs and done an incredible job at both, unless I've missed something
  6. Momentum for a season works in both directions, or snowball effect or compounding or whatever you want to call it. Teams can get on a roll and setbacks don't affect them, teams can get in a hole and minor positives fail to turn it around. We fell into a massive hole due to injuries (and fixtures) and so the season could never really take off.
  7. I feel like we need to resist jumping to the potential end point and judging based on that. We’ll never break the top 6, we’ll never break the top 4, we’ll never win the league etc - all that is basically unimportant to me at the moment. I feel like we’ve only just been liberated from an incredibly awful period under Mike Ashley and everything is brilliant. We don’t have an amazing squad yet but it’ll get better and better. I know it’s annoying when someone says this but we really do need to just embrace the journey and see where we get.
  8. Also we've already broken into the top 6, I'm not really sure what that concept means.
  9. He should send the child soldiers who have no experience and don’t know how to load their rifles.
  10. What happens next season is the most important, there's no doubt he has great ability but I guess it must be system or position-related doubts in Howe's mind.
  11. It's hard to say how 'easy' it would've been for Man City if they hadn't deflected two soft goals in. Of course, once they are 2-0 up the game is over. I do hope we see Hall, Ando and Miley play more now though.
  12. I wouldn’t say it was a bad performance for the players we have and the situation we’re in. Problem is we gave away two unlucky/soft goals and we were finished.
  13. Think we did OK but the goals went in very unluckily and obviously there’s no way back once 2-0 down to Man City. Their players control every pass and give every pass perfectly, ours waste a lot of opportunities and make a lot of mistakes. Was always going to be a defeat. Positive would be if we see those sub players starting more now.
