I think it’s pretty clear that the Chelsea players are actually trying to get LR the sack. I wonder if the #nufc players are doing the same with Howe…..

Gary Neville saying Arsenal basically have a free hit against #nufc Its hard to disagree but that should alarm everyone at the club. It shows how big of a backward step this season has been.

It’s clear that these last few games will be Howes last. They won’t be the strong finish that our CEO wanted, I don’t actually see where any points are coming from. He will resign before the last home game.

I love Eddie Howe but he does appear to be a confidence / energy manager. He’s got to have the support from the players and fans etc in order to do well. If that’s not there then things do appear to go south very quickly. Stubbornly playing the same system is suicidal #nufc

Season is over. We will limp home on around 45 points. Does seem like it’s time for the next phase.

Today will be another loss. We have zero confidence and I think half the squad are already on the beach with their agents. It just had to be Bournemouth. #nufc

I’ve been around long enough to know how this plays out. They never let me down. 😂

Good. He’s shite.

No. That would be a ridiculous short term vanity appointment. He’s done.

Exactly the kind of thing #nufc would go an do. He’s be a short term vanity appointment.

Good. He’s shite.

When Bruno is out there is a frightening lack of creativity in the squad. We’ve been lucky that he’s avoided a big injury so far.

Also what’s PIFs real ambition for the club? If it’s to win the PL, trophies, new stadium etc then by all means go & sell that vision to a new elite manager who can take the club to the next level. If not then what’s the point in replacing Howe?

I’m not against Howe going IF they have some kind of viable succession plan. It’s so easy to make the wrong hire. There are some really shit managers out there all waiting for a chance to milk another club of severance pay. Spurs are proof of that.

This is the issue, there are players in that squad not doing their job because they are either already on the beach or they are trying to engineer a move away.

Did Howe tell Botman to give away that penalty? Do you think Howe says to them “Right lads, let’s make sure we get ourselves in front & then shit the bed. Osula lad, don’t forget to miss at least one sitter. Sandro, feel free to only play at 60% of your potential”

I think it goes back further, probably to the moment Ashworth left. That’s when the project stalled and recruitment in particular really suffered. I think Howe has been left dealing with a lot of internal politics and a vacuum of silence from the owners.

Bournemouth next for #nufc we ALWAYS put in a great performance against them.

I think what ppl tend to forget is that it’s the players who are throwing these games away. Howe is desperately trying to protect them despite their garbage performances. I think a few of them are either on the beach or looking for a big move in the summer. That’s a difficult situation to manage.

I guess I just want you to hold me and tell me it’s all going to be ok.

He’s not without blame but I don’t think he’s fully responsible for the summer window. He didn’t sell Isak at the last minute and he wasn’t the one negotiating for players. I’d just like the situation dealt with a bit more compassionately given what he’s done for the club.

Our fans have short memories. The stick Howe is getting on social media is embarrassing. I hope he resigns and goes to a more loyal fanbase tbh. Guy took the club from relegation to a cup and UCL qualification but one bad season and he’s toast. #nufc

Is that all a Howe issue or should our defenders take some of the blame?

Look at Chelsea and look at Spurs. It’s incredibly easy to make the wrong hire….and there’s always a Dyche or a big Ange waiting to pounce.
