Eddie has little need to get stuck with Toffees

While some Everton fans are keen on Eddie Howe in their current situation with Marco Silva failing to keep their team out of the bottom three, there are also others that don't want to try and entice Eddie Howe to Goodison. The latter is certainly good news to hear for AFCB fans. Whenever there is a job in and around teams in the top 10, it's no surprise that Eddie's name is mentioned as the media have a big drive to try and get English managers at the top clubs.

Eddie may be rather more red and black then Blue these days.

Eddie of course has made no secret for his love of Everton when he was growing up, but these days I am not sure he is as much a Blue as some Everton fans would like to think. Weighing up the potential for a move for Eddie Howe is going to come around again at some point but now might not be the right time to jump ship to a club that has been unstable and spending heavily for a while. They had a good manager under Koeman in my opinion and since then I kind of think they lost they way having panicked in bring in Sam Allardyce and then trying their luck with Marco Silva.

It takes time to do well at a new club and being settled should not be seen as a lack of desire for Eddie Howe. He can achieve much of what he needs at AFCB having not yet won a cup competition or featured higher than ninth in the Premier League. It's not that AFCB aren't capable of doing better even if it is great to see what they are already achieving, and with great projects like the new training complex, and some exciting young signings, AFCB are not in a bad position. We are already feeling good about the 3-1 win earlier this season against Everton. Bournemouth's season really got going with the home win over the Toffees last month, when the Cherries caused Marco Silva a lot of problems.

Eddie has had tremendous success at AFCB but the club is still growing and there are probably a lot of challenges that Eddie still wants to achieve while he is on the south coast. I kind of hope that he does not leave the club until one day the phone goes and he is asked if he would become the England manager. At that point I think AFCB could lose their favourite son.
