    When are a big club going to take a chance on him?

    Done brilliantly at Bournemouth who are now in their 4th season in the premier league and have never looked in any danger really of going down. Currently 5th with 16 points from 8 games this season and he has played good football throughout.

    Would any fans of the big clubs be happy to give him a chance as their next boss?

    Reckon Spuds will snap him up sooner or later as the fat Argy seems to have become disenfranchised with Levy’s profit first edict.

    And would Spurs fans be happy with that?

    I'd have loved him here ages ago.

    Probably not but all their past managers have been the best thing since sliced bread AVB et al.

    I'm just glad we've moved away from the WBA, Stoke or any Fat Sam mentality in the PL. Howe is certainly the best of the bunch but there are other teams who also look to play footy now.

    Can't think of any other to bring a much smaller club up and have success playing good football. The small clubs who come normally play defensive.

    I just mean the overall ethos in the PL now, Watford, Wolves, Bournemouth. They all want to play footy.

    Howe I'm a fan of he's shown the way forward for other teams, you don't need to have 11 men behind the ball to play in this league.

    Yeah there's definitely been a shift in attitude in recent years.

    Watched them live at the weekend and they were superb.

    I think he’d be a good bet for Spurs if/when Poch moves on. If he could take King with him then even better.

    However, they’ve no real stars and even with the cash spent he has Francis and Cook in defence as they’re his guys. It’s a big step to deal with the egos of a Spurs let alone a bigger club.

    Rather have Nuno from Wolves

    Eddie is decent though....he has had massive slumps with Bournemouth let's not forget...but I like him...his demeanour is good...reckon he would suit Spurs because he plays football the right way.

    If Poch was to leave, yes.

    Quite frankly if we can't get Eddie (or England), I hope that he spends his whole career with the mini Skates. I can't stand their fans but I still admire what the club has achieved in the last few years.

    Howe needs to plan his next move carefully, as he's onto a good thing at Bournemouth.
    He's a good, young English manager with a nice public persona and a pleasant style of football, so he'll have plenty of offers.
    His spell at Burnley didn't work out very well, though.

    How many clubs would be a step up for him that's worth taking the risk for, but would still be interested in him?
    I don't think that there's a very long list, to be honest.

    No thanks, It’d be like having David Moyes as our manager again.

    He wouldn’t be able to handle the pressure of managing a big club like United.

    How does anyone know for sure unless he's given a chance?
