I can't believe anyone would support this club and at the same time have regretted beating Chelsea and Man City. Remember that rush when those games were over? That someone would prefer us 6 points worse off just to spite our manager is absolute madness to me.

 

Mate, we have a section of fans who haven't got two brain cells to rub together. It's a circus. Embarrassing shit. 

 

I guarantee you there's been some who've sat at home since the Chelsea game with a limp dick just waiting for today's result so they can return to getting hard for sacking Puel. 

 

Booing Vardy off? Yeah, well done pond-life - obviously not knackered and still carrying an injury but let's boo that decision. Booing Iheanacho on? Disgusting behaviour, you don't deserve to be called a fan. Get in the bin. Keep the same team? What as the ones who've just put 180 minutes of hard graft in over seven days to beat Chelsea and Man City? Sure, I'm sure they're full of energy still. 

 

Let's just forget those results shall we, those magic moments we celebrate as fans when we beat 'big teams' with squads that cost 10 times plus what ours does and cry our ****ing pathetic collective eyes out because we didn't beat Cardiff. 

 

Get a life. 'support' another club. Get lost.

Keep the same team we had out against Chelsea and man city.

 

We win.

 

He rotates AGAIN !!!!!!

 

We lose to a poor shit team.

 

Puel Out

We've just had days of people saying we shouldn't play 3 defensive midfielders against Cardiff, so we don't, we lose, and now you're saying we needed to play 3 defensive midfielders against Cardiff.

 

You couldn't make it up.

Why is anybody surprised? 90% have made their minds up one way or the other about Puel.

Yea well some people is not the same as what I said as I am not some people.

 

So obviously you can make it up.

 

You do not change a winning formation of 2 wins on the bounce.

 

NEXT.

Here's why I believe he should be sacked.

 

Against top sides we start slowly, soak up pressure, defend resolutely, and play ourselves into the game in the second half. Tick.

 

Against lesser teams he plays the same! We lack the intensity and attacking prowess to break teams down ..... they then come into the game and beat us.

 

Against everyone our game plan is pass the ball around until we can manufacture a cross ..... Then loft a cross Into one small attacker surrounded by 4 bigger defenders with no midfield bursting forward. It's awful. It's sunday league standard attacking play. it NEVER creates chances.

 

He cannot motivate, he cannot get us playing with any intensity with or without the ball.

 

But the biggest problem - he's asking our players to think about their game whilst playing, "am i n the right place, doing the right thing" he hasn't made the game and his plan simple enough to be instinctive, and this slows everything down and makes us pedestrian / boring.

Yes you can. We played 3 defensive midfielders and one striker against Chelsea and Man City. If you can't see the difference in playing Cardiff City to those two then there's not much else to say.

At no point should we play that defensively against Cardiff. We've just had basically everyone saying the same thing.

 

Can feel the cringe creeping up my spine as I read "NEXT" like you've dispatched some peasant.

We shouldn’t have played 3 dms but we shouldn’t have played 2 dms either!

So under no circumstance is it ever the right idea by managerial genius yourself to ever change a formation if you've won two games under it, even if the playstyles of the teams you're facing are like chalk and cheese?

Nope, we had a massive section of our own fans booing the Vardy Iheanacho swap.

I agree, unfortunately we only have defensive midfielders. We have nobody who can run the game from deep pinging balls around. It's getting depressing.

The fact is that there's a big bulk of our team that's absolutely bang average.

Great post you've got it spot on there.

[Guest Cujek]

It's all well and good beating Chelsea and man city but that performance against Cardiff wad pathetic and embarrassing.

 

There is only one person to blame, baffling team selection and substitutions yet again.

 

Anyone can get a few lucky results but the naivety shows through all the time.

[Crispin LA]

Puel missed a trick he should have picked Hamza and Iborra, and rested ndiddi and Mendy for the Everton game

[SecretPro]

Pointless thread. Puel just beat Chelsea and Man City, hardly getting the sack any time soon is he.

Ok so out of the last 11 prem games Puel has rotated the squad 9 times.

 

Out of those 9 times we accumulated 5 points.

 

When a formation worked for us we accumulated 6 points in 2 games.

 

Don't fix what ain't broke.

 

Last 11 games 11 points.

 

Don't let the last 2 wins fool you

He made 2 changes, one because Morgan was sick. Not exactly a big reason for the loss.

You do realise those boos were aimed at the manager for doing that swap, don't you ?

[NeilLCFC]

The last two games show just how good we are when we play to our strengths. Puel can not be excused for reverting back to his sh*t football today. He really needs to do one now.

[Fox 4 Life]

Can I make semi controversial statement. Outside of maybe the Huddersfield home, Newcastle away and the last 2, we have been absolute championship material. Fair play for the last 2 wins but we should never measure ourselves against anything but a home game against ****ing cardiff. Puel out

I almost want to be devoutly Puel in just to spite some people here! 

 

I still think I want to see his January transfer action before I make a judgement as to whether he can turn around performances more if he can bring in players that suit how he wants us to play. In the end, I think he has systemic issues currently that if they persist then I'd be fine with him being sacked, new manager's identity pending, but not right now.
