Eddie Howe just can’t win.
Your centre half loses his mind and tugs, a really hard, obvious, shirt tug, in the penalty area, when there was literally ZERO need to do it (no “seem” about it).
So having seen a draw turned into a loss, in a game we’ve already scored once in, the first goal in an away fixture against a team with more to play for than us (despite Eddie being apparently a complete fool who can’t pick a team remember).
Howe then puts on Yoane Wissa and Anthony Elanga with minutes left on the clock. At least two, maybe more with Palace’s blindingly obvious last ditch fouling and time wasting.
And yet Eddie Howe is the idiot?
To all those people who don’t understand the logic of those substitutes, I can only imagine the COMPLETE AND TOTAL CONFUSION you experience when teams score within 90 seconds of a kick-off. Is it even allowed under the rules, you must wonder.
You deeply weird alleged spectators of a sport you clearly don’t watch all that often. A goal was scored within 90 seconds of a kick-off literally yesterday (Saturday 12 April).
The fastest Premier League goals are measured in seconds. And Elanga at least, is recognised as one of the fastest players in the game today.
But if he was all that, Anthony Elanga would start ahead of Jacob Murphy. I dare you to say he should. I dare you.
It is beyond embarrassing a player of Elanga’s quality apparently needs a better manager to be able to displace a winger who doesn’t have long to go before he sees his first grey hair. In a team where Miley started after a very long muscle related lay off and still got an assist any winger should be proud of. With Murphy’s help.
Stick a broom up his backside and he’ll sweep the tunnel for you while he’s at it.
Eddie Howe needs to tell you where to stick your broom and invite you to actually name the manager, indeed the whole five man shortlist, you think is coming to flog their guts out for you.
