Its really sad that i have replied to so many people today with regards to this. I love Wes .. I am actually quite sad his form has dropped so much in these last few weeks. To me i will never get that pic you speak about with him and Claudio lifting the trophy out of my memory. 

 

If you read my earlier posts, i really dont think he should be playing in the 1st 11. I honestly dont! 

 

I just am not so sure its down to him being the captain (although that would also make sense) there just has to be more to it, comments Drago has made? More money ontop of the loan thing if he plays more games? Puel just not likeing Drago, and wanting to replace with someone new in the transfer window... I honestly dont know. 

 

If this is a manager problem then i will bow down and accept what everyone has said, but for now since we have zero proof either way, i will give him the benefit of the doubt to Puel.. 

 

 

Id not lay all the blame at CPs door tbh. It’s been theory and there have been numerous unconfirmed reports there are certain men in our changing room, Kasper Vardy and indeed Wes himself to name theee, who have a bit more power than a members of the playing staff should. Obviously down to the fact they were key components of us winning the league. Don’t get me wrong I wouldn’t want a manager to go just because he still picks one player who I think shouldn’t be an automatic pick.

 

Certain people seem to be untouchable and it’s a problem that has now lasted through the tenure of three managers.

So much salt and sour grapes on here mate.

 

I say fair play to Burnley.

 

At the end of the day I keep going back to the fact they didn't win for nearly 2 months and we didn't catch them, we had our chance(s), didn't take them.

I agree, it’s not as if Burnley have snuck up last minute... we’ve been in their shodow for most of the season, Dyche once again proving he is a top, top manager... and it’s probably what we deserve considering some of the fans reactions to him being linked with us after Shakey was booted, his side are organised solid from back to front and can be a match for most sides....

 

Nothing but respect for them and Dyche, we’ve just got to stop feeling sorry for ourselves and get on with it.

Sour grapes my friend, we got to be bigger then that

No Sour Grapes here my friend.

 

Ive been very complimentary of them this season and well deserved seventh place.

 

Just my genuine thoughts at this present moment.

 

Id rather next season we build our squad and adapt our style rather than worry about extra fixtures and loads of travel to play european minnows.

 

qualifying and proceding further into the competition is different though and I wish Burnley all the luck.

Bullshit. Half the squad isn’t good enough,

 

Kasper, Wes, Simpson, Albrighton, Gray, Kalechi to name a few are not good enough.

 

Our recruitment has been absolutely rancid the last couple of seasons, what happened a few years ago was a complete freak. We need better players, but for some reason we seem reluctant to operate like a side hunting for Europe. 

[Parafox]

Burrrrnly... BURRRNLY, Eurrrropa league? Flat caps and pigeon racers.

 

Oh well, they have the results, they've got the points we haven't. Must mean they're better than us.

 

The fvck they are.

I would like to think, along with you and the majority of this forum that Wes is dropped next week! 

 

If he isnt (and i honestly will be shocked if he is) i would like to know the reasons, and sadly as a meagre supporter, i/we wont get that privilege.

The manager picks the team, he motivates the players and he's supposed to organise the defence.

So aside from Morgan over Drago...what did he do (or could have done) that affected the on-pitch behavior of that player?

What did Chilwell do wrong? Should have had an assist if not for shocking finishing, no glaring defensive errors either.

Rewatch the first goal, plays Wood onside by miles

Morgan has been behind the game for the last two seasons. He's too old, too unfit, too unreliable, makes too many poor decisions. Occasionally he gets a really good defensive header/tackle in but he is too inconsistent in his defending and his passes out of defence are often terrible.

He didn't organise the team to defend the corner.

Totally agree.. and out of reps.. (Why do we even have a bloody limit on rep points, its not like we can down-vote people or anything - else i'd be out in the 1st 5 mins of the day)

Fair criticism. Has been a weak point all season. We desperately miss Huth’s height.

Old saying Suzie a poor workman blames his tools. Individual fvck ups happen maybe once, but when it keeps happening it's down to tactics. A few results either winning or losing prove nothing. Under Puel it has told us we are regressing as a team and as a club. Ok go and blame wes, who keeps picking him when it's clear he no longer has it at this level? The manager tha't who. The team was not ok because they had no belief in the tactics they were being told to play  and they have not been ok in that respect for months.  Believe me expect an announcement

 at the next loss if not before.

This is the same team who eventually had no belief in the tactics Ranieri told them to play is it?

 

Who the fvck is running the show at Leicester?

 

I don't give a shit if they're 'O.K' with it or not. They're professional and paid a fortune to do as they're fvckin told.

 

Babies.

Anyone watching the Leuven game tonight?

Has anyone seen Mahrez lose so much possession or fail, so frequently, to take on and outwit defending players. This guy is seriously going down the pan. He's coasting - presumably because he has no incentive to take responsibility and maybe because he's holding a grudge against the Club. On several occasions he made absolutely duff passes - when it would have been easier to do the other.

He's the main man - by reputation, but that's not transferring on to the pitch. A player that good can make it appear that he's putting in a shift - but Mahrez now bears no comparison to Mahrez in '15-'16.

As to sacking Puel - would any of you calling for his head trust the ability of the owners to pick an effective successor? Or maybe they could put all the names into a bowl, close eyes and fish one out.

If Puel doesn't drop Morgan etc. then maybe he's playing the long game - being diplomatic to avoid unsettling the transitional situation. There's a caucus  of good, young players there and some fresh 'old' heads. He knows the situation.

 

Totally agree,all Points covered.

Mahrez ,odd AVG games I can unterstand....but he aint Proving he has consistent technic,to

Geht a big move..

Yes we made mistakes.... but the tactics mean that we arent a threat.
