    Eddie Howe

    Just watching the full length interview now. First time I've seen these Podcasts but there is some great content in this, even stuff you could use in your own line of work.
  2. I still don't think that most fans (and some of the media) have cottoned on to the fact that this "purple patch" has gone on for nearly 11 months now. In terms of the calendar year, we are up there with 19 wins, 65 pts from 33 games, 5th in the table just behind Spurs on 67 who have played 35 this year. We are playing like title contenders. I don't think we will win it as I think City are unbelievably strong and will walk it. I think Arsenal look similar to us in terms of teamwork so will run them close. Spurs, Chelsea and Liverpool are there for the taking it seems. Spurs take 45 mins to get going, Chelsea don't know their best side and Klopp seems to be more bothered about whining about everyone else. I still get to matchday and think that we are due a loss but the last few games have made me think about the "run" too so I think expectations are naturally being raised with each passing game. 2 more games to top off the first part of this season and hopefully 2 more wins to come. I certainly don't fear Chelsea at Home like I might have done only 12 months ago.
  3. Another good mauling, although the level of expectation now is much higher as I was pissed off we conceded. Midfield was very industrious today, Willock just shrugging players off in the challenge, he's really starting to show signs of moving on from his previous plateau. Delighted for Wood to get his goal, and it was a proper strikers finish too, knew where to put it without looking.
  4. I desperately want wood to score a couple of goals...he looked pissed off during his last cameo where he missed the sitter.
  5. Wilson clearly got wind of Toney's penchant for a flutter and contacted his mates at the Mail to investigate. He's going full shithouse to make sure Southgate has no one else to choose from
  6. Should be pulling out all the stops to get Tielemens and Maddison in. Perfect additions to midfield.
  7. Wilson getting in on the love in. Someone send Ekitike a VHS of the season so far.
  8. That game was a classic show of going through the gears. First half was so disjointed we couldn't get into a rhythm. Once Wilson scores the pen, the team seemed to just turn up the wick on Villa. I don't think we got into top gear but the play leading up to Woods miss late on was almost beautiful and would have put the cherry on top of the result. Can't wait to beat them again at their shitty place.
  9. Brilliant this. Wilson for the hat trick. Wait til ASM comes on!
  10. Need to get the crowd going now to lift the players. There's definitely more goals in this for us. Time to put these fuckers to bed.
  11. Appalling referee. He needs to be spoken to at half time, absolutely ruining what we have had of a game.
  12. I think that's been the key so far, the right characters. I accept that money is a deciding factor in changing clubs, I've done it myself in my career, but there has to be other push/pull factors to coming to our club. Hopefully the way we are setting up, playing attractive high press football is making some of our targets sit up and consider their options. Every one of our signings has made an impact. Karius and Wood are probably those who are feeling a bit left out but they will come into their own in a cup run this year with a bit of luck. Eddie seems keen to make sure the whole squad is involved in the project so I don't expect us to have the number of players that Chelsea or City have had.
  13. Yeah our depth in the squad is there to see. Eddie has done wonders with the players who were already here, but to progress we are going to have to move on from them. I get the sense of ambition from the fans, but I hope the fanbase doesn't turn into a bunch of expectant arseholes the minute that we have a dip in form. It's been upward trajectory since the start of the year, and that can't last forever. We are better building this project slowly and getting in the right characters. If it's another 1 or 2 in come January then that'll be great.
  14. Pleased to see Willock start. Looked lively last week and adds a bit more strength in midfield over Murphy.
  15. Son and Kane will turn up against us. Suspect it might be a 2-0 to them. Callum needs to find his shooting boots and the rest need to feed balls to him.
