[Grebfromgrebland]

I think getting rid of Puel would be a massive mistake right now.

will he be gone by the end of the transfer window?

Can you explain a bit more please? 

 

I am of the opposite opinion, I do have to give Puel credit for the Chelsea game. And for playing younger English players he has done well. Style of play, negative team selections, not getting the best out of all of the players would be the main cause for concern I have with Puel.

 

League position is reasonable, At best, we could possibly only be 2 places higher with any manager, so I do not see sacking Puel happening for the foreseeable anyway.

I think his comments after the Chelsea game 'this changes nothing' are not very assuring I may be reading into it, don't know if its already been discussed on here

[AlloverthefloorYesNdidi]

There are Leicester fans who are annoyed that we beat Chelsea because they think it helps Puel stay. Twisted

 

Havent beat them at theirs in 20 years and they couldnt enjoy it. Thats not right

I wonder how many managers  outside the top 3or 4 would be in trouble after drawing w ith Man C and winning at Chelsea  losses at Crystal Palace and Tottenham almost look good after the week end results  as I think these 2 sides managed  1  and 2  shots on target respectively  against  our so called poor defence  I havent enjoyed a lot of the matches  but  facts are fact

Mark Hughes? we actually lost against Man City as well

When did he say this? Because of you I painfully watched the post match interview and I can't find it. Watching the post match interview reminds me of why I stopped watching them and why I liked Pearson's disdain for the press. Half the questions are made to trip up the manager and create a headline and the other half are stupid.

Personally I think giving him until the end of the season to prove that he's building something would be the correct and fair thing to do. We're not going to get relegated so why not just be patient (although this is football we're talking about).

I wanted Ralph Hasenhüttl this summer, but now that he's gone to Southampton, I think we should stick with Puel at least till the end of the season. My only other option would be Learnodo Jardim, but he may find Leicester a club to small for him, which may have been a reason he didn't go to Southampton. 

Puel seems to be great at building a team but finds the other bit - managing it difficult. It would be good for the Club if they moved Puel to DOF in the summer and try to get Jardim in the summer aswell.

Just the one major obstacle to that .......

Cheers. He's responding to the reporter saying, "This changes everything." It's normal for Puel to deny it. It would have raised more questions if he'd said, "Yes this does change everything." Nothing in it imo.

[BenTheFox]

I think he's kept his job until the end of the season. Saturday's result really was massive for him. Its meant that we're not likely to slide too far down the table in this difficult period and it would take something truly catastrophic for us to get relegated. I understand that some people think that a new manager could come in and get more from this squad and maybe that's true, but let's not forget that someone could come in and do much worse with it too. You may find it hard to believe, but we can certainly do far worse than Puel. 

[siraaj_lcfc]

Those comments after the Chelsea game mean nothing. it's obvious he's not getting carried away after one good result. He's doing what he always has and remaining calm. I mean he's not exactly Kloppers on the touchline is he?

That’s where I’m at too.

We can look shite and good in equal measure but let’s give him one more trans window and see..

I’m sure I saw one of these in Amsterdam, definitely didn’t go in (did).

[Ted Maul]

It would be a truly bizarre sacking if it happened now, or even before the Chelsea result. A bit of 'boring' midtable mediocrity ain't such a bad thing given everything that's happened.
