......oh, and the Newport result was not a fiasco?

How is a football match like a wine bottle Mike?

Sorry

Please list the games where we have lost 1-0 with 0 shots on target

 

We have played sexy attacking football in the Premier League for a grand total of about 10 games in our entire history

The last time Leicester played sexy  football the Premier League didn't exist.

Also the basic fact is the whole thing is a process, Babylon's kept making the Pearson comparison which is fair. Managers rarely come in and are brilliant from day one. Unless the entire plan is to get a series of new manager bumps to propel us to mid table every year I'm not sure what it is exactly the anti-Puel extremists want. Some of the more moderate complaints I get, but the visceral hatred is just weird. By all means be absolutely raging about losing some cup games but what do you get out of it?

 

I think the football stuff is overblown but that seems to be the main issue, people harp back to this mythical time when were brilliant to watch but that was bound to happen after the title win. It ain't great sometimes but we've also put in some brilliant performances.

 

And if your problem is you don't know who the assistant manager is now because he doesn't hold a couple of big bouncy balls under his arms before every game I'm not sure how to help you.

 

 

That's a little silly.

 

Even the least informed can't take anything away from Shakespeare as a coach.

As critical as I am of Puel the negative football predates him but he is another manager that is safety first

Maybe we can stop with this myth.
He went for the win at Brighton away when we were 10 vs 11 at 1-1
He went for the win at Chelsea away
He went for the win agains ****ing Man City

That's just the most obvious and recent ones that proves him being "safety first" is utter bullshit.
