cityfanlee23 Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 CP has had a decent enough record wherever he has been. Won the league in his first season at Monaco, went to Lille where he signed and set Eden Hazard alive prompting his move to Chelsea. Went to Lyon when they were on the decline and their funding was slashed, didn't win anything but you can't have a perfect record everywhere. Went to nice where the club were constantly trying to stave off relegation and took them to the top 4. Went to Southampton, finished 8th with a cup final. Yes he finished with 17 pts less than Koeman but let's analyse that before just regurgitating throwaway comments. The club sold Mane, sold Wanyama, sold Pelle, they then sold the Captain fonte in January, by February they lost Virgil Van Dijk to injury and their main defender was Maya Yoshida.... He's played attacking football wherever he has been apart from Southampton where their best players had been sold and was forced to play to the strengths of the team. If he can do to Mahrez what he did to Hazard and Ben arfa, we could be in for a treat, christ he even improved balotelli. I said from the start of Ranieri' reign that he will do well (never expected what came next) But I fully support this decision, I had my moments of doubt in the moment, but having spent the last few days looking at his career and analysing where he's been and what he did at each club, I'm more than happy to state that he will take us into the top half and build the club for the future.. Given time he could take us to the top 6 fight for European football. It's time we dropped the 4-4-2 and started to adopt genuine tactics, Ranieri tried a bit more in his 2nd season and failed, but with the acquisition of Maguire, Dragovic, Iborra, I feel we have more ability on the ball and can actually hold up play, or pass the ball fluently. We now have the opportunity to play different formations and become a team with a plan B. I welcome CP as the Man to do it.
filbertway Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 Good man for starting a Puel thread, it's about time we had some discussion on the new Gaffer!

His record isnt bad anywhere and in most cases it is excellent.
Guest the fox Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 i'm 100% behind him, until he drops riyad

Fox92 Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 I like him. Really hope he does well... especially considering people are writing him off before he hasn't started which isn't fair. I am excited to see if he makes us solid at the back.
NewquayFox Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 Good post, he was on a loser as soon as he went to Southampton (selling club) but made a decent job of it, high praise coming from top players for him (Henry & Hazard) and I hope the chap does a great job for us, sad to see so many fans moaning about his appointment though....
Nick Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 If only there were a couple more threads to write positive things about Puel.

yorkie1999 Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 I think the main difference for him will be he is at a club that will pay rising stars the money to keep hold of them instead of having to let them go after developing them.
Buzzell Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 I'm looking forward to this weekends game to see whether he makes wholesale changes or keeps the same old first 11/formation.
Rusko187 Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 Must admit I preferred Dyche and was a little.. unimpressed he signed, but I'm willing to give him a chance and do hope it works out a good move for him. His style at Southampton may not be consistent with his managerial career so I'm just going to go into Everton with no expectations.

I think it would be madness for him to be too much involved. How much could you possibly get across in a couple of days. Let MA take most of the control and sit back and watch.
dedlock Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 Puel is a realistic appointment. Too many posters had unrealistic expectations that we could attract the likes of Ancelotti or Pellegrini. With the exception of his last few months at Soton, blighted by injuries as well as sales, he has a good record. Not only former players but coaches such as Wenger have spoken in complimentary terms. He may be a less exciting appointment than the big names that were mentioned but as the OP suggests he should be a good fit for LCFC.

hackneyfox Posted 27 October 2017 Posted 27 October 2017 Is there any chance of getting Mendy back or is it a season long with option to buy?
