Left before and failed at Burnley before being successful back at a heavily backed Bournemouth
Not sure what it is but something about him winds me up
Seems very smug ,(only my opinion!)
Laid the foundations for Dyche to build on and didn't settle up here.Left before and failed at Burnley before being successful back at a heavily backed Bournemouth
He has a religious belief in himself which is fine when it’s all going well...

Eddie Howe isn't a 'bad manager', yes his stock was highest a couple of years ago when he was linked with arsenal and England. People have mentioned Ibe and Solanke as bad signings, yes they haven't gone according to plan however Bournemouth are about to sell Aké for £40m, Wilson and King for who knows how much, so he will be well up on transfer revenue, that's before the likes of Brookes and Ramsdale who will more than likely find prem clubs due to his management/coaching.
No, he isn't a TOP manager, yes he has achieved success with Bournemouth. Will probably end up at a palace/fulham/newcastle/villa
I don’t get people having a go at him. He took Bournemouth from mid table League One to the Premier league. That takes some doing these days.
hard to compete in the big league year on year when you only pull in 15,000 or so as a regular crowd.
Don’t get the criticism on transfers either. Solanke and Ibe are average yes.
But we re forgetting:
Ake who’s about to go for double the money paid.
Matt Richie picked up for a pittance got them to the PL
Callum Wilson Danny Ings Lower league to PL regular goal scorers.
David Brooks, Lewis Cookn list goes on.
one of the best English managers there is. Will probably have some time off and come back stronger.
Just to add he actually took them from -17 points in league two to the PL

He comes across as an intelligent, articulate, decent man. And he has done an incredible job at Bournemouth. But as someone else has already said, he does look like he needs a break. A year off to recharge would be my advice.
I think he’s realised he’s taken Boscombe Athletic as far as it can go.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he has got a job lined up or takes a year out.
Along with Lamps future England manager material.
All I really have to say about Eddie Howe is that the work he's done is incredible
He's the greatest manager of ALL time.
Cannot believe people talking him. You could have as much money as you want but you would still struggle to get top players to come to Bournemouth, that's a fact.so he did. I was counting his second time in charge after Burnley really. Because they’re two separate achievements really. Both equally stunning.
Personally, I don't find him smug at all. He just seems a quiet guy. He also doesn't trot out the usual football manager soundbites. I've always been impressed with how calmly and clearly he speaks, even in the heat of a post match interview. I'm sure a few clubs will be calling him over the next few days. But I hope he has a break before taking his next job.He was a good fit at Bournemouth, however I think his next job will tell us a lot about his ability as a manger and his ability to work in different situations. His time at Burnley was Ok but nothing more, I have a feeling his next job will be short lived as he gets found out as not being able to adapt, and yes I also find him to be smug at times.
