    Bit unfair even on Brucie not giving him any time to speak and then asking how knowledgeable and capable he was in comparison to someone wh had 10 seconds.

    :rolleyes:

    He comes across so well like, obviously the most important thing is how good he is as a coach but it's nice to have a manager who clearly isn't a massive arrogant bellend like Bruce.

    Unfortunately Bruce didn't understand the words digital, situ or streamlined.

    What was that bit of the press conference where he was asked about Liverpool's DOF either leaving them or meeting with Howe?

    And I don’t think he used the word unfortunately once, unless I missed it!

    .

    He laughed at the question then suggested certainly not to his knowledge before going onto say he was totally unfocused or aware of any of that...

    You know, this fella fills me with confidence…. we all know steering Bournemouth to the Premier League was an achievement and keeping them there even more so. I see media reports snarking about Eddie not being first choice, having his work cut out, defensively suspect… and rival fans having a dig. I don’t fear relegation primarily because of our owners and their ability to buy their way back up… and I certainly wouldn’t easily blame the new gaffer in view of where we are when he’s taken over and what he’s inherited to work with. He gets 2-3 seasons from me.

    And I may be fantasising, but where’s the harm, the ‘greats’ have to come from somewhere; Sir Bobby was aged between 45-50 steering Ipswich to FA cup and UEFA cup wins…. Eddie’s younger - there’s absolutely no universal rule that says he couldn’t become something absolutely legendary at the Toon…. and I’d be so happy for him and for all of us if that happened.

    these training videos, his press conference, the approach to fans, the aura that’s being given off is ****ING AWESOME and fits my post-takeover mood.

    I can’t wait…

    He speaks well.

    I don’t expect seismic changes in the next game but evolution to a progressive attacking team will hopefully come in time. I wouldn’t be surprised if the first team he selects is very similar if not identical to the last game but then slow change thereafter.

    What I would hope is that the commitment from the team is more on the second half of the Brighton game level and never again on the level of the first half. And that is what we should expect and get from the first kick of the Brentford game.
