2 wins in 10 against united is a disgrace. Howe out!

 

[blue b4 the moon]

If he can't improve on those percentages he'll be out quicker that Steve Coppell at ours.

I don't get the hype with Howe.

He comes across as Bentwatt type character that's making money of being mediocre with a few mates in the media blowing smoke up his arse.

Probably be next Engerland manager off the back of keeping them up.

It’ll be interesting if he’s allowed to buy up and coming players at Newcastle, or whether he’s made to try and buy instant success.

He will need to buy players to get them out of the mess they currently find themselves in.

If they can avoid relegation - or even if they don’t - the summer is the time to start planning for the future.

Newcastle needs stabilising before they can attract top players. They have to win games to avoid relegation.

Eddie Howe may not a glamour manager but can get them out of a hole and start building

I don't really know what the point of comparing his record at Bournemouth from 2012-2019 to Newcastle in 2021 is, but if you look at points per game -

Brentford 1.33
Arsenal 0.45
Norwich 1.22
Burnley 0.8
Leicester 0.94
Liverpool 0.31
Manchester United 0.7
City 0.00

He'd get 6 points out of that run if it went according to his Bournemouth record.

Considering he'd be playing 4 of the big 6 + Leicester that would be fine.

Going down with Howe. Abysmal manager.

Media likes to peddle this Bournemouth fairlytale from L2 to PL, but that was totally funded by rich Russian.

It would leave them on 11 points at the halfway stage of the season so would be near certain to go down.

At the time we needed a Hughes to lay the foundation but was always going to be out of his depth after that. Howe is Newcastle's Hughes.
