Reports that Howe/Bruno have fallen out, and that Howe's demeanour in the press conference was not one of fight, but of low mood, low energy, almost deflated.

Not facts, mind, so don't shoot the messenger!!
 
Bruno's comments after the game were quite brutal and Howe contradicted some of them in his press conference.

Howe cannot sit there sternly and tell me they didn't lack fight in that match, idgaf what he has done for this club, you don't sit there and bare face lie to us.

Amen to this. I mean, he even contradicted his own post-match interview, where I think he apologises at least 3 times because it was so ****ing awful!

It's not the comments or demeanour of a man safe in his shoes. There will be some serious pressure on him purely through the UCL and PL matches - whilst the LC trophy was a hell of an achievement, in terms of a billion pound investment it doesn't scratch the surface, so I don't think this weeks result has any bearing on anything. From a board level, I'd imagine they look at the LC and think "sure, we've done that, but could do without the conference league thanks".
 
So who’s actually got a ticket for tomorrow then?
Ive got 5. Im expecting a positive reaction but if we dont get it - then it's just more fuel to the fire. I'll shout myself hoarse in support in the ground

I said on Sunday, Howe is starting to lie in the press conference and that is the beginning of the end.

Seen that with Bruce.
