oxtonfox Posted 12 January 2020 Posted 12 January 2020 If we can't beat this team in the second leg of the League Cup semi? I mean look at them.

I have no idea if their fans want him out, but if they do they're much better judges than any of us. I know but theirs is a very different case. They didn't win the title, their ambitions were never to challenge for top 5 (unlike Vichai's) or top 8 even, and their budget is smaller than ours was after the title win. Also, Claudio was sacked in his second season, that's hardly uncommon, there are clubs that change managers few times in a season and there are clubs that sack managers after a great season too (Tottenham and Pochettino being the most recent example, or take Mourinho few months after winning 14/15 title with Chelsea). Howe has been at Bournemouth since 2008 (with just a short one year side affair with Bunley), that's almost like a marriage, that's something completely unprecedented in football. Therefore their connection with him is much stronger than ours with Claudio whom we want to remember for the title run but who got so awfully stubborn in his second year. I'd say regarding our situations back then in CR's second year and theirs now, there are simply too many differences between two clubs to make analogies. Agree with their fans being ultimately better judges than us though. If they think Howe can't turn it around, and want him out, then that's it.

Some people have this weird obsession with him when he was only ever a bang average footballer. Matty James was ahead of Drinkwater in the pecking order before the injuries. He could've been a top player for us. Massive shame. 1

In a similar position with a Fulham fan. Not sure I 'support' but do take an active interest. Did thoroughly enjoy the day out at Wembley beating Villa...and Derby in the Semi final 1

You have my sympathies. Having to cheer for Arsenal must be like chewing sand. 2

SouthStandUpperTier Posted 12 January 2020 Posted 12 January 2020 Villa do know they're allowed to tackle, don't they?

shailen Posted 12 January 2020 Posted 12 January 2020 You think we've got problems. Imagine being a Villa fan 😂
HybridFox Posted 12 January 2020 Posted 12 January 2020 This is gonna be a totally different game when we go there for the second leg
Pliskin Posted 12 January 2020 Posted 12 January 2020 We will piss the second leg. I’ve just decided.

Tbf I was saying the same thing in the first half on Wednesday. They could barely string 2 passes together until they scored, had their tails up for 5 mins and then did nothing afterwards. Wednesday was a really poor result especially with penalties available after 90 mins of the second leg.
RowlattsFox Posted 12 January 2020 Posted 12 January 2020 Pretty much every man back and Silva can still thread a little ball through to aguero.

Sir Shep Posted 12 January 2020 Posted 12 January 2020 Man City look like they want to beat the 0-9 record, but I’m thinking they won’t, sort of, ish.
