You serious?

 

Eddie Howe took over at Bournemouth when they were heading out of the Football League and into possible liquidation.

He kept them up then got them out of League Two.

After a disapointing spell at Burnley, he returned to Bournemouth and got them out of League One.

He then got them promoted from the Championship.

He then got them mid table in the Premier League.

He likes good, attacking football.

 

Yeah... he's bang average isn't he !!!!!!

 

PS I don't see him leaving Bournemouth for us, I think his next move will be further up the chain.

I should have clarified that I meant in the Prem. He has obviously done an amazing job getting them to where they are. I think he would seriously struggle at a club with our aspirations though.

I think if we came calling Dyche would join us, better facilities, bigger stadium, more money etc plus he'd be close to home (he lives in Northampton I think).

 

It's a new challenge and I think he'd be very interested.


Burnley have peaked, he's taken them as far as he can.

..along with one of Russias richest men who pumped tens pf millions into the team. When they won the Championsip little Ol Bournmouth spent more on players and wages than  anyone else. Its not all down to King Eddie. Oh and with regards to Sean D, just have a look at the goals scored column for this season for Burnley....not exactly thrill a minute stuff there.

People arguing for the sacking of Puel to bring in Dyche are literally making the case for keeping Puel IMO.

 

Dyche has done very well this season, and deserves all the plaudits for what he's achieved. But he's been at Burnley for 6 years now, and in that time has been given an immense amount of time and patience to build his squad into one capable of having a season like this. They didn't even sack him when they got relegated - because the long-term project was more important than short-term safety.

 

Sacking Puel after only 8 months would be criminal IMO.

Also his Burnley side has also only scored 35 goals this season, which is 14 less than we`ve scored, and people think we`ve been boring to watch!!

If Wenger goes anywhere it'll probably be abroad. Can't imagine he'd want to manage another team in this country.

I dont think Shakespeare had much to do with keeping us up. Doubt he came in with a master plan, think he was clear he said "play like title win" and the players were responding to the critisism of stabbing Ranieri in the back.

 

Anyways, Sean Dyche no thanks

Well facts are facts.

 

7 games into 2017 Leicester had the worst record of all 4 divisions with 1 point (0-0 Boro) and I believe, zero goals.

 

Shakespeare's introduction gave us 5 wins on the bounce.

That's not England. I can't see her want to there. Probably France,Spain,Italy or Germany.

Ahhh yes the man who's potentially got European football next year and has a win/win situation on his hands with zero risk...

I'm sure he'd love to come to a club that sacks managers before they can build a team.

I really don’t see what you all see in CP.

 

He inherited a great squad that was coming off the back of a tough start following an assistant manager who should not have been appointed.

 

Tweaked little and built on MA influence before then completely removing our DNA. We have gone from pace and closing down to dull, clueless, uninspiring tactics using players who should be dropped.

 

His communication skills are very poor and history suggests he has struggled to develop a team in the PL yet some of you are willing to let him completely change our style and spend a fortune based on what?

 

Personally I think it is a recipe for disaster and this is the most important Summer since Peter Taylor had his time.

 

With RM leaving we need to embrace our qualities and build on the with a mix not just completely lose the pace, aggression and closing down we have established - yes improve the ball retention but build on it like Liverpool and Man City.

 

I fear if he is given this preseason we will be relegation candidates by November and I don’t think it would be the case with someone who develops what we have rather than completely change direction.

It's not like he gave out groundbreaking tactics and insight tho is it.

And he's going to leave in a season he gets to guide Burnley in Europe, not happening

Well I remember him saying that we are "a better team on the front foot" and he got us playing that way, at least at the beginning.

 

However he did it, whether it be tactically or by just getting the players playing again the fact is he saved us when we were sleep walking off a cliff.  A bit mean spirited not to give him credit for that?

Jesus. Some people cannot find it in themselves to give credit. In what world has Howe not done a stunning job at Bournemouth? Now an established PL team.... BOURNEMOUTH. All whilst playing football the right way, I'd add.

Hypocritical rant. One of Thailand's richest men pumped more money into us.

I know this is an old post but these kind of comments keep cropping up and I'm sick of hearing how Shakespeare was a disaster for us and is now some kind of benchmark for managerial craposity.  The bloke kept us up when we were in terminal freefall and saved us from the embarrassment of being relegated champions and a laughing stock.  Deserves our respect and gratitude for that.

 

He also coached us through promotions and the title win.  

 

Considering this was ages ago, do you even know in what context his was?
