Eddie Howe

[gaino92]

Left once as a manager. Didn’t bomb - didn’t get sacked or relegated. Left Burnley because his mother died. He was only young.
He’s done a tremendous job at Bournemouth.

Just not feeling him, seems far to timid and happy to be patted on the back by the bigger clubs. Don't think he could handle players with big egos

Martinez mark two for me without the bonus of winning something or the negative of relegation so that kind of even themselves out . I’d be completely underwhelmed, a feeling I’m very familiar with as regards Everton .

Howe's a no from me. I don't think he has the desire to truly take on the big boys, seems content to play beautiful football for a lower/mid table team

Dyche on the other hand would love to take on the top six, but his style of play won't get us there.

3-0 win at Chelsea might suggest otherwise wouldn't be my choice but I'd take him before Silva.

Yes

I know for a fact, he's nothing like his media persona.
Can be proper ruthless.

He's not for me, but he'd get us playing some decent footy.

Moyes beat Chelsea this season shall we go back in for him? I just don't think Howe could handle the pressure at a club bigger than Bournemouth

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

I like Howe he is better than most earning their trade. He is a anti Sam type coach.

 

[Milkman]

Would take him over Silva definitely.

He messed up at Burnley

He certainly did an incredible job to get them to the PL but since he's been there I think you could only say he's done alright. If he wasn't the man who'd got them there, would we think his PL seasons were the sign of a fantastic manager? I'm not sure. 16th, 9th and 12th is steady but he's hardly socked it to the man.

Southern puff.

One might add that he has hardly had the massive resources to do so, but by God, his team has always battled to the end, unlike what we have seen from our own in recent times...

Has he not? Spends an average of £30m a season and has been able to afford the wages of people like Defoe and Wilshere, he's hardly been starved of resources.

I'd love Howe, not a mercenary too so we could actually get some continuity back at the club
