I started the season honestly believing Eddie Howe was the media's darling undeservedly &

Alex Neil was as good & deserved as much recognition...how wrong I was. Howe lost his 2 big signings lost his no:1 goalscorer & continued to play the way he believed, Pass Possession and Press. At the same time we lurched from tactical change to tactical change and personnel to personnel.
We sold our best goalscorer (who we could certainly do with next season) loaned in a cpl of forwards but not a goalscorer.
Back to Howe...Guardiola once said that he didn't know why teams sent scouts to watch his sides play, because they play the same way every game because that's his belief how the game should be played. The same can be said for Howe & fair play to him and Bournemouth.
We have no identity, no consistency and no threat and let's be honest we're currently no good.
Next season is absolutely massive.
