We had to believe Iborra,Silva would start to perform at an higher grade..We couldn't expect Ndidi to suddenly either lose form,or reach his end level!!! We invested in Maddison,and have Choudry,who might get a 1st team look-see!! Nacho was going to start to realise his potential..I Vardy was going to be our Mr reliable,injury put a stop to that.... I really don't understand,how then Puel is blamed on team choice!! Maddiso n is showing potential,but is not yet a 90minute player Ricardo..was 1st doubted (typical of this forum). but starting to prove a decent investment.. Mendy ,has rekindled his career and playing decent,if not great... Amartey,was beginning to realise his potential All CBs,and FB, and a wobbly/reds/inconsistent start...but any grouping is ok by me,The defence is more than decent... Again with our injuries,has they have come,with the above points..I don't understand the attacks on Puel..player selections Then the BS,that he plays weaken teams,just proves the individual posters are screaming first,before finding out avai!ability!!!I Then shouting someone must go,because a or more fans don't like his selection...laughable!!!

Not been fit all season-even when he ran off the pitch for the infamous "Crapsgate" he was pointing at his groin previously- not his backside. He probably needs 6 weeks off to fully recover from a torn groin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That_Dude Posted 21 December 2018 Share Posted 21 December 2018 3 hours ago, breadandcheese said: In which case, Puel prioritised the league over the quarter final. Players could have been rested last Saturday in preparation of the cup. He chose to play the strongest eleven and relegate the cup to a sideshow. I don't accept that as the correct decision. Yeah, well that's your right and I can understand that. We'd certainly have higher chances to win against MCFC with him on board but we'll never know. I personally think he took his decision according to what the medical staff stated and because a win against Palace was more likely. Should have he benched him last Saturday and lost, some people would still be mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not wisdom after the event. We missed a trick in the cup. Man City treated it like a training exercise and then complacency set in which allowed us to take it to penalties.

Lambert09 Posted 21 December 2018 Share Posted 21 December 2018 It’s a good time to do it tbf. Looking safe in the league, window about to open, little risk for the new manager coming in. I think we’d be able to get someone decent in. I know it’s not the Leicester way but I like to hope they are making calls and seeing who’d be interested. Cant see it happening though, I doubt Tops even thinking about football at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect you to know, but what did the people above Puel want to prioritise? Complaining about his selection implies 'the board' also would have preferred to go for it in the cup, but that Puel blithely ignored them. These seems fanciful to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it looks pretty much the same week in week out to me... slow ponderous build up, no decent passer in midfield, let the opposition take the lead, flat performance and atmosphere... this isn’t a one off I can tell you're getting frustrated!! In this forum you are not actually allowed an opinion - even though it is pro-city. If it is not pro-puel they will rip you to shreds! There are 4 posters on here who are so totally committed to M.Claude (and, yes, one has to admire thier loyalty) that they would still adore him if he played Kasper as centre forward, insisted all six defenders tied their laces together and had ' I love Forest' tatooed on his forehead. The blind faith and adulation has reached ridiculous proportions. Two thirds want him gone. The football is turgid. He is NOT the messiah. Let it go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not wisdom after the event. And yet I don't remember many people on here or anywhere else suggesting Vardy shouldn't start against Palace. In fact I'm about 7 pages into looking through the Palace pre match thread and the only person even mentioning resting Vardy for Palace was @Bert. Loads of people, including many of those whinging about him being played at Palace had him in their starting 11. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others on here are talking about us drifting towards the bottom of the table after our tough run of games coming up. Given those games it seems reasonable to have payed JV in a game we could more likely have got something from. And JV almost made the difference with hitting the inside of the post - fine margins ! A loss at Palace without JV would have been meat and drink to those who want CP gone. A case of “damned if you do, damned if you don’t”. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
