Thank ****, I said on my fb status last night he'd be announced today. lol

 

In all seriousness I hope he has a lot of success with us. Welcome Claude.

Uninspired, I'm afraid. 

 

We are reaping what we hath sown  - no big name manager will be eager to join us for a while now. We are no longer an attractive proposition.

Leicester City Vice Chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha said: “When we began the process of identifying a new manager, the Board quickly established the profile of candidate we needed to take the Club forward and Claude Puel was a perfect fit.

“Upon meeting Claude, his attention to detail, knowledge of our squad, understanding of our potential and his vision to help us realise it were extremely impressive. He quickly emerged as the outstanding candidate and I am delighted we will have the opportunity to reinforce our long-term vision, aided significantly by his expertise.”

Initial thoughts.... horrible signing. Better options that we have completely skipped over. Really, really disappointed with this.

Which better realistic and available options did you have  in mind???

He has a good track record, experience if it wasn't for the couple of years at Southampton we'd be reasonably pleased.  Surely he's more tactically astute than Shakespeare.

Personally I find it a totally underwhelming appointment. But he's here now and I'll get behind him for the start of a new era. I was fearing the worst with Ranieri and he proved to be an inspired choice.

 

I think he will have to hit the ground running though. A few defeats and he will be under pressure. I'll say one thing though, he clearly wanted the job and that to me is a good thing.

 

Good luck Claude, we want you to succeed because we want Leicester to do well. COYB!!! :scarf:

Intriguing.

 

Those judging him on his time at Southampton alone aren’t really doing him justice.

 

Could very well turn out to be an excellent appointment.

 

Welcome Claudy boy

 

Really blows the whole “the owners only want a big name” thing out of the water as well

Wouldnt have been my first choice in an ideal world but more importantly was far from the worst candidate touted. G'won claude, see if you can match the heights of the last continental manager :thumbup:

Remember all the bitching and moaning about Ranieri when he was announced? Now everyone wants him to be their third Grandad... give Puel a chance ffs.

Posted

Gonna give him time, just like all the previous managers.

Strangely enough I just have this feeling he will be steady for us.

Feel the same way about this when we appointed Paulo Sousa, nice guy but did nothing inspiring to think he was going to be good enough and look how that finished up.

 

I wish the guy all the best and prefer him to Pardew or Allardyce on anyday but, not convinced. Hope I'm proved wrong!

..no detailed knowledge of him to comment really,... if he wins us matches he will be our hero otherwise... repeat sack manager
