He's asking them to make sideways and backwards passes, play possession football. 

 

Most teams play to their strengths, Puel actively has us playing to our weaknesses, week in week out. I'm not calling for his head yet, but I can hardly stand watching us lately. 

 That makes the questions about Claude more understandable 

[leicsmac]

When a manager cannot get the best out of the players, then it's right that they should go.

 

However, when three different managers cannot get the best of out the same group of players, perhaps it's time to think that the problem doesn't entirely lie with the manager.

[Pete from the USA]

They are getting down to business now. Keep pushing like this and we may yet get something from this game.

Lots of talk in here about the players "getting" Shakespeare fired?

 

I thought we fired him because he was tactically inept and out of his depth?

Exactly.

 

People are claiming the players got rid of the last 2 managers and trying to get rid of this one.

 

I saw no-one claim the players got Shakespeare sacked until now when they are using it to suit their arguement.

 

As you said he was simply out of his depth, it was a tough start aswell, but he was out his depth and we were only going one way under him.

 

The players aren't good enough, I've been stating that for 2 years, i've been saying it about some for 3 years.

 

I do believe the players had a share in getting Ranieri sacked but he has to take alot of the blame upon himself aswell, he shot himself in the foot.

 

I do believe the players aren't playing for Puel and I'm not condoning it or saying it's right but I can kind of understand them, he's sucking he life out of the club, the players and the fans.

Surely it can only get better for us second half surely we can’t let these cheeky Cnuts beat us !!

Bit everything Blurnley touch seems to turn to Fuching success WTF !!

I must admit, Puel's proved me wrong .I didn't think we could be worse than last week, he's exceeded expectations yet again.

Its just that Burnley are better than Newcastle, otherwise it is more of the same.

[yorkie1999]

Think Burnley are just going through the motions, we need to win, a draw is no good. And Morgan!!! What a shit footballer, if you can’t bring it down, control it and lay of a simple pass when there’s not an oppo player within 15 yards of you, you need sacking. He really is just a big fvckin lumper.

And for the other 14 minutes ?

It's nothing to worry about guys, we've had lots of chances. Personally, I'm glad we're winning the chances league. When do you think they'll award us the chances cup? Will it be before or after Tottenham's possession cup?

[Innovindil]

You know we've gone to the dogs when there's calls that ulloa shouldn't have been sent out.

Well no more we are 8th Rubbish  

 

9th. Everton are winning at Swansea.

[RowlattsFox]

Difference is a team is putting the effort in and the other can’t be arsed. Lazy defending. 

 

I don’t think you can blame tactics, just poor defending and half arsed attitude.

We concede two chances and concede two, we create 3 pretty clear opportunities and score none. Typical.

We are too predictable. We dont do counter attacking anymore.

Who is it down to if we aren't defensively organised? The players he picks? The players he didn't bother to sign knowing we were shit at the back? 

 

What about the play on the ball? We are atrocious on the ball, boring football with no progress up the pitch. 

The odd counter attack that usually leads to nothing? 

We can't even attack at home. 

 

Puel Players have a LOT to answer for over the last 4 months.

Mate, it's simple. Morgan has been shit and gifted two goals today. This has nothing to do with team organization and the set piece problem is a very old one. The team, which mind was already set on either the WC or holidays anyway, is shell shocked and can't break an opponent who want it more. 

 

Atrocious on the ball? Lol, you fickle lot. Because we were so classy on the ball under Shakespeare, hoofing it like there is no tomorrow. It ain't boring it's patient. Something you lack. We miss key players in crucial areas and our style will stay wonky until we get them. Who the fck do you think we are? Barcelona? Bayern? We're currently a mid-table team in a rebuild phase and the manager can't do shit about individual mistakes.

I actually think we played better just now than the first half at Brighton (although it's not much). 

 

To be honest, we've played better than Burnley, who've done nothing since their second. 

 

Just terrible defending once again.

Get Iheanacho on

Of course.. the confused reaction was for what the comment Twat was for .. 

[SecretPro]

Come to the conclusion Silva is a lightweight pile of shit.

Sliding down the table... West Brom were awful last season after getting past the 40 mark we are doing the same, and just look at where West Brom are now

Is that what CP has them doing? No wonder we're struggling

[CarbonVirtine]

Comedy defending from us. We ought be beating Burnley. They're organised and play some neat football but they're nothing great. There's gaps there if we put our minds to it.

[danfox76]

why do our wingers not try and beat their defenders?.. our wingers get the ball.. then wait to get closed down.. then pass sideways or backward and its not just our wingers doing it

Yep, not as bad as some on here making out, and how can c p get the blame for the 2 gifted goals?

excluding their goals, we’ve created 2 clear cut chances by good quality play and nearly r m class free kick.
