What/who has made Scott Sinclair look like Luis Figo, Rodgers or the paucity of opponents in the Scottish League? Answer honestly. With that, I'm off, been on here way to long this morning.

Mark - Reading Posted 22 December 2018 Share Posted 22 December 2018 It wouldn’t suprise me at all tbf, if I had spent millions on players only to watch us bore the fans week in week out and for the second year running field a team of reserves in a cup quarter final I would have sacked him after I read the team sheet! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hankey Posted 22 December 2018 Share Posted 22 December 2018 It seems pretty obvious that Christmas brings a slow news period for the sportswriters and so to keep some kind of interest they start the rumour mill ticking. Pure speculation!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor comeback his other two success's Liverpool (took them to the closest they have ever been of winning the Prem in years) and Swansea (got them into the Prem from the Champ and build a good, team... look at them now) I agree, have a good day sir.

Imagine the players they must be bored rigid then you here things about low intensity training and the players are bored with this and that's what Puels reign will be remembered for being boring! It baffles me everytime someone thinks a manager says the same things and speaks the same way to his players and to the press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say what you want about the football at the minute, but our squad is getting younger and more exciting. Give him time to get rid of the older players and bring in younger replacements and we might actually be able to attract some good managers excited by the potential of our squad. Replace him now and we´ll end up with Pearson, Moyes, Hughes or something like that. The amount of money fans pay and time committed to watching the team, exciting football should be a priority. Watching this same old shit for months now is killing the club 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Suzie the Fox Posted 22 December 2018 Popular Post Share Posted 22 December 2018 (edited) Perhaps more suited to the unpopular opinions thread, but if we do sack Puel I for one will not be pleased if Nigel Pearson returns as an interim manager. If he is to go (which i am still dubious about what the papers are writing) I dont want to see any of the shit, out of work English managers coming into see the season out. And for this reason mainly, he still has my vote. Edited 22 December 2018 by Suzie the Fox 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And though Pearson means to us, we need to be flexing our muscles and showing our ambition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very dubious about that too, first Percy seems to be on a mission to get him fire since last year. Then, just a month ago, Vardy was the one who took Puel in front of the players so he can have applauds from the fans. Then, making a huge deal of the benching of Silva (who never proved anything at Leicester) and King (who is simply a mediocre player) is very weird to say the least. We'll have some answers today. If the players are apathetic, there are chances all of that is true, if they aren't, it's probably BS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCFC FOX Posted 22 December 2018 Share Posted 22 December 2018 1 hour ago, The Doctor said: You're kidding right? Benitez is dour, negative and is obsessed with experience. He's completely the wrong fit for the squad we've got No chance, Benitez plays attacking football. Only since newcastle returned to the prem with no funds to spend as he not been able to do so. Look at every other team he’s been at. Great fast paced attacking football. How’s that not prefect for us? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mehrez Posted 22 December 2018 Share Posted 22 December 2018 I’d be happy with Rodgers or Jardim as a replacement, I’d throw Wagner into the mix aswell. As for Benitez it’s a deffinate no from me - those that moan we are too defensive at the moment then wish for Benitez do make me laugh. The interim manager suggestion doesn’t really sit well with me becausege only ones up for that are going to be your Moyes, Pardew or Allardyce - I’m not a massive fan of bringing Pearson back but he’d be the only candidate i can think of, but you’d have to get the whole band back together, can’t see Top taking him from Leuven to put him in charge at Leicester for 6 months I’d imagine it wouldn’t send the right message to the Leuven fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La-li-lu-le-lo Posted 22 December 2018 Share Posted 22 December 2018 He will be sacked after the Man City game I think. Which ever side fence you wish to be, Puel is destined to fail here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollyfox Posted 22 December 2018 Share Posted 22 December 2018 Tbh , I think I'd keep Puel for the time being, although I can totally understand why people would want rid. The main reason is for the sake of Top and the family. He has lowered the average age of the side and tried to move us on in the way we play. He IS dull and uninspiring and our stadium is as flat as it's been in a long time. Others managers out there COULD also do all these things but galvanize the players and the crowd in the short team and still have a strategy for the development of the club. Two cup 1/4 finals at home in successive years have really pissed most people off. I'll always look back to the division between him, Appleton and the players in the 0-2 defeat to W Ham at the end of last season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think he should go but a reasonable post, if his time here is basically done, it might not be best to hang onto a zombie manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st albans fox Posted 22 December 2018 Share Posted 22 December 2018 Confident that no one has said to him that he needs to get x number of points from the next y fixtures to keep his job the club have have decided to get rid or they haven’t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heymister2015 Posted 22 December 2018 Share Posted 22 December 2018 Why would it be anyone other than Jardim! High profile! Likes youth players but plays in an attacking style. Why they’d be a debate for anyone else I’m not to sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
