Can Man U explain what they are doing @ #14? Under NO circumstances should that be the case after 9 matches played.

The fact that an English coach is relatively successful at the highest level on a shoestring budget while playing good football on the ground is painful to you. I get it bro. Nothing spoil but ndo nwanne.

This thread is about Eddie Howe. I never said he was the best in the world at managing clubs on a shoestring budget. Classic txj in setting up assorted straw men for distraction purposes.

Coach wrote:@BeniTx, Ebube Howe has lessened the first round haymaking, tending to jab for the opening minute or so, at least. Needless to say, he loves a ruckus, all in, arms swinging wilder than Deontay, but, of late, he has toned it down a touch. When the weather permits, he’ll go hammer and tong no doubt, but the helter is not as skelter these days.

Meanwhile Bournemouth just beat ManU and is on top of them in the table. Go figure!

Yeah, he'll do well with England...

Yep. Right on cue as expected. There's no England manager coaching that can ever be good enough in your books. No surprises.

Given very limited resources (12k capacity stadium and all) and in relation to the type of football they play (more continental than british), pound for pound, Eddie Howe is one of the best managers in England.

The English are generally daft about the game, although they make the most noise! It used to be that Nigerians could see thru the hype...Now they swallow the marketing blitz voraciously!

Watching Eddie Howe's teams is like watching bunny rabbits in a park in the spring!

He may be the best pound for pound English manager, but that doesn't say much.


And if you want to relate limited resources to quality of football, then you are even further off the point it bothers on ridiculous.

Ever heard of Getafe and Jose Bordalas? Ever heard of their campaign (tongue in cheek) for sperm donations as a way to increase their fan base?

perhaps Grenada under Setien; or more currently under Martinez?

What about Sassoulo?

Pls don't talk about limited resources in reference to an English team....

You're very prejudice to begin with so getting any unbiased comment from you is like expecting The spiritual leader of Iran to invite Netanyahu for a groupie.

Howe has done very well with the resources he's got. He doesn't have to play like Barcelona before you admit he's been effective. The resource he has might be incapable of Barcelonaesque type of football but for once give credit. Your too know is so damn annoying

You can at least try and comprehend the point being made, rather than typically act like a stupid, dirty spudite!

Who talked about Barcelona? You!

The teams I cited are not exactly Barcelonaesque (except perhaps for Setien)...Nobody who wasn't daft would accuse Getafe of such "heresy"....

I'm talking about organization or lack thereof. Having a bunch pf players running helter skelter is not and cannot be a model I would admire.

And lets just get off this crap about the resources Eddie Howe has. You should compare it to what the likes of Getafe, Grenada, Eibar or Leganes has, and then compare the quality of their products...
