I’m still 65/35 on keeping him but I want to see how January goes. We lack a striker to help Vardy and the two of Mendy and Ndidi is very negative Surely u have seen enough..... i dont want puel to spend any money. .... lord know what his vision is. ...but i dont want to go there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to score goals to win matches and you can only do that with what is on the pitch. The simple fact is that we haven't got the talent, the match-winners or the players who can play with pizazz. It's easy to blame the manager but just look at the individual performances, far too many off days for whatever reason. We seem to go behind quite often and only then do we play decent... not sure what the stats are but it wouldn’t surprise me if we had fallen behind first at least 70% of the time this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that what you want? No but in terms of what we could get: 1) play well, win 2) Play poorly, win 3) Play well, lose 4) play poorly, lose. Appointing big Sam would be asking to sit permanently in category 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted 15 December 2018 Share Posted 15 December 2018 6 minutes ago, Steve Agnew said: Negatives - tactics that don’t maximise the talent in the team (Vardy) - doesn’t know his strongest team - Spent more money than any previous manager - no connection with the fans - killed the atmosphere at the KP - abject performances - going backwards, no evidence of improvement - best squad outside the top six - boring, boring and more boring - reproducing his results at Southampton - his philosophy is unproven to work in PL - odd substitutions - demotivated the players - rubbish results - inflexibility, ideologically driven Positives - he plays young players - he had some historic success in France - he won some games at he beginning of his tenure at LCFC - excellent at downplaying and managing expectations - fans now accept failure as progress towards - lucky - gained many points this year despite poor performances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were you the judge who scored the wilder v Fury fight by any chance? give you that, but I think he has done a decent steady job... not in danger of relegation... sometimes a manager does need time to put what he wants together. The results aren’t great but there are moments we do look good and with a couple of decent signings we can get better Edited 15 December 2018 by foxes_rule1978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listen, i'm not sticking up for Shakespeare, Shakespeare had to go, it was awful football, we were trying not losing as opposed to trying to win and it was only going to end one way but in comparison to the Puel apologists Shakespeare can feel hard done by.

foxes_rule1978 Posted 15 December 2018 Share Posted 15 December 2018 (edited) I just think the title winning season has gone to people’s head. Give the guy a good chance, it isn’t easy changing the way we play to your liking. From not having the ball to trying to keep it, the right signings I can see us moving forward. At the moment we are a mid table team, people would have dreamt for that not long ago Edited 15 December 2018 by foxes_rule1978 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlloverthefloorYesNdidi Posted 15 December 2018 Share Posted 15 December 2018 People keep saying we're not playing to Vardy's strengths, but he has missed a lot of big chances this season. He's not finishing as well as he normally does, we should have beat Burnley, we should have drawn today 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Lisemore Posted 15 December 2018 Share Posted 15 December 2018 So so predictable that our only clear chance would come in the last 10 mins of the game. If I were Puel I wouldn’t admit to a gameplan, really is embarrassing that they plan all week for this kind of performance. If you’d have given the whole squad last week off, we would have put a better performance in. Seriously. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goober Posted 15 December 2018 Share Posted 15 December 2018 Would I be bothered if he went? No If he’s given another window to turn things around would I be opposed? As it stands, not really Too hard to vote. Shit atm though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we'll need 18 points to be honest. Think Huddersfield and Fulham won't even reach 30 points. Southampton might improve so it's that last place I'm not sure of. Still think 35 points … only another 13 needed … should see you safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, Puel I think deserves January to buy and then we will see how we are second half no need to press the panic button yet. Puel hasn’t been here long!
