2-0 - Barnes in 69th min

Thomas just had one ruled out for offside after Harvey Barnes breezed past half their defence in the box

Lot of his Instagram posts are of training with Leicester or portugal. The Sporting ones relate generally to games they're playing and supporting them. Doesn't suggest anything

Yup, not just you

We've seen him play barnes, now Hamza and Thomas has been on the bench. Wouldn't be surprised to have them train more with the first team or included in squads. Can see why they haven't loaned them either, they get game time learning how to play the style we want them to.

Not surprised, Puel seems big on youth and club is throwing money at the u23s lately

At least we know it can work. It sounds they've been doing pretty well, and a lot have been getting international call ups

Not had the chance to watch a lot of them this year, what kinda style do they play? Mainly has Puels passing gone down to the u23s

It can pin a teams lb and Lm back and drag over a CM leaving more open to space. The amount of damage it can cause a team is crazy

Statue of Ranieri and Morgan holding the prem trophy in the air! A section of bars or restaurants or similar to be in or sit in pre-game Agree with the railway station idea, a line would make it 100x easier to get to and reduce road congestion, especially if we're increasing capacity.

At this point I'm not sure if its the manager being poor or players not getting their way and being pr1cks about it

Such a needless red, and what an idiot

Minus any major drops or something similar, can see him being here for a while. Developing youth teams and the training ground remodelling are both things Puel will be well in given his experience in training ground builds before (in france). He'll take some time to fully evolve the team and the owners will give him time i think/hope

No link at all, but Cedric the rb for Southampton, think he was signed by Puel and seems to be exactly the kind of player Puel needs and wants here

It does matter, if the penalty is given then the game takes a completely different flow. Its all ifs and buts, but yes we were poor today. Seems to be whenever a team doesn't let us settle we suffer

The maguire hand off, what they didnt mention is gayle being half Harry's size. Anyone not that small and he's pushed them away by their chest. Felt he seemed to let a lot of their challenges go unpunished, but may just be being bias there as have thought the same in last few weeks

Was thinking he could potentially be converted into a centre back, seems to have all the attributes

Just re watched it on MOTD, how the ref or linesman don't give it is beyond me. The linesman is 10 yards away at most.

Think it was more he'd slot in between the 2 cb's as the full backs went forward leaving.

On another day the penalty is given and we go in 1-1 at HT with no need to fly forward in the second half.

Last weekend where we had ndidi sent off for a dive and one of the softest penalties given

He's had 6 months, the worst window to buy in, our best player going rouge. Yes we've been playing poorly, but when a team sticks 11 behind the ball and sits there it is tough to do it. We've not been having the luck lately.

Was composed for me, always seemed to be where he needed to be to make a block or interception. Seems to be able to pass a ball too.

Middlesborough game back in the championship a few years back, a Friday night on Sky with torrential snow and ice making getting in almost impossible, was a small gate there i remember. Edit: Just found it, 8,500 on 19th Jan 2013

I would assume in the past year or so he's been with us that would be something they've tried to work on. But I do agree, this spell boosting his confidence will hopefully increase what we can recover of his value. All 4 of the youngsters mentioned really impress me actually. Diabate will be one hell of a player, allow him to age and strengthen and his runs at people will cause no end of problems. Gray is so close, assume with more games and maturity he'll begin to become better. Same with Chillwell, he came back from England duty seemingly more switched on to danger and his mistakes
