It's just that you said " I'm Puel out " that's why I said after he's gone then that we should stop the circus? Or do you mean to stick with him?

I'm still Puel out. I only want a manager who fit here and with the right environment to work in.

If you buy five cars from the same "guy" and they all break down, then you obviously have a big, big problem yourself.

 

Ever heard of other options?

 

In any case, your analogy makes little to no sense in the current context.

My analogy wasn't the best. I should say  "owning a sports car and driving in a dirt road and wondering why it's breaking down". The fit isn't right and the environment isn't helping. Or something like that lol

In what way?

Most clubs traditionally had a boozy ‘Wednesday club’. Some of our squad last weekend had a ‘Sunday into Monday-Tuesday morning club’.

Not really surprising given the fact they’re allowed to live wherever they want, go abroad at any point in the season etc etc.

You're both totally off the mark. There is no evidence or reasoned argument to suggest he would do better with 'his own' players. The way we play is just wrong. Wrong for the English game, wrong for a club of our size, and to be honest, the way he has implemented it wouldn't work anywhere. It's a bad version of a bad way of playing football.

 

His 'philosophy', i.e. the imaginary one people have come up with, is absolutely pants. It revolves around keeping the ball for the sake of it, slowing the game down to a painful level, then lumping high crosses into short-arses. There is no philosophy about that, it's as clueless as the way Shakespeare had us playing, The only difference is Puel is a foreigner, so people just assume he plays some sort of attractive 'continental' style, when in fact he doesn't, not at all.

 

Yes, it is impossible to play tiki-taka with these players. But there are no players Leicester could buy to play that way and even if there were, it is not worth bankrupting ourselves and having a massive squad overhaul to achieve it. We won the league playing a much more exciting style of play than passing it sideways in your own half, without having to spend a load of money to make it work. And it's managers, not players, that are to blame for it regressing into clueless hoofball.

 

We are still playing that clueless hoofball because 3 successive managers have seen us, in patches, play brilliant, good to watch football like we did when we won the league. Then all 3 of them have decided this worked too well, and have preferred to try and pass the ball very slowly, until we are pressured by the opposition to the extent where we have to get rid of it to avoid giving the ball away in dangerous positions.

 

Now, if Puel had a brain cell, and people like you didn't encourage his nonsense like you're doing now, he'd realise that playing with a quick tempo is the be all and end all of successful football teams, especially in this country.

 

Your lack of tactical understanding is somewhat acceptable as you aren't being paid millions to implement it week after week. But he has no such defence. He can do one.

I concede. You were right and I am wrong. In my defence the hit and hope hoofball was getting on my tits and I thought the possession was going to be fast tempo like v derby under NP. This football may be safe in the French Ligue but not the prem.

We are relegated if he stays. Give him the summer for an overhaul and a blank canvas would be a horror. We not talking about opinion of football identity and style here. We need a kick in the nuts!

Is the helicopter still there?

Rudkin apparently missed HMRC by seconds so they are camped out at Belvoir Drive till the portal opens again in the morning to process Puel’s P45.

I include our deluded fickle fans in that statement too.

Deluded and fickle how?

 

Deluded enough to expect not to lose 5-0 at Crystal Palace? Deluded enough to think we could have had a very realistic shot at finishing in a European spot this season with decent management? Fickle enough not to consider that first-half performance at home to Southampton as perfect? Fickle enough to think 4 wins in 18 is unacceptable?

 

if the answer to any of the above is yes then I am most definitely deluded and/or fickle.

No News, CP is still the Manager here

Nothing would happen overnight!

 

tanner was already briefed that nothing will happen pre Saturday evening but that could just be a ‘holding pattern’ by the club.
