He’ll stay, if we definitely look like we will active mid-season. Thing is, he has the right idea of promoting youth and his idea of how the game should be played is sorta right, he needs a more consistent team for it to gel. Won’t get the time though and we can’t hope that he stops changing the team every week. He’ll be gone in the summer

Remember when we gave Ranieri our 'Unwavering support' on the 7th of February before sacking him on the 23rd of February?

 

Just pray that they do something similar again.

Options very limited mid season, so you might as well wait. Unless you want Stowell as manager.

James Nursey article for The Mirror.

 

Mirror Sport understands Puel, 57, has been told his future is not under immediate threat after taking charge in October 2017 on a deal until 2020.

 

If this is true, can we try to turn a blind eye to his stubbornness and support him and the team during games. See what he can do for the remainder of season. He will have no excuse and we would have given him a chance.

 

Yes?

I'll remember this post when you start losing your shit over Ndidi in the next match thread.

I have to say I've lost a lot of respect for our fan near over the last few months. After being together for Vichai's death we've hit new lows of self entitlement and short sightedness.

 

It's pretty embarrassing listening to the Puel out crowd. I heard on the radio an Everton fan saying that there be happy with tenth as they were transitioning.

 

If we got 10th with a side which would nearly qualify for U23 league our fans would be foaming at the mouth.

 

Can you imagine what these Puel outers would be like with their kids? They must hate them if they make any mistake or take time to learn anything. 

 

Grrrrrr!

I can understand some of the critisism, I'd have far more respect for people if they just said. You know what, his football style isn't for me, I'm getting little enjoyment from the games and a year and a half in charge should be enough to see where we're going with his style.

 

It's just all the nonsense that gets chucked his direction that makes me cringe. "Destorying the club", "Worse than Taylor", "Disrespecting Vichai" blah blah blah.

Yet those people keep coming to the games to watch 90 minutes of it...

 

Everyone is entitled to judge players, managers, performances etc, but during the 90 minutes, get behind the team and show them you are a loyal fan, good times and the bad.

It's tough though. I'm not disagreeing with your point but players' performance influence the fans too. It works the other way too.

But this is the age we live in. Everything is an extreme, everything needs to be compared or told as it's the worst/best/most boring thing in the world. You're right about it being blah blah blah. It's white noise in a world where making something extreme is something people feel the need to get noticed.

 

I've been wavering a lot in the last six weeks about Puel. From out after Palace to "in and committed" after Everton, buying into the long-term goal, to the screaming frustration of the last three games. 

 

Part of me fears that he has to go simply because the fans have gone. He'll never get the fans back, and that's awful. Standing at Wolves was painful. Ninety minutes of filling a bingo card of anti-puel rhetoric all around me. Even got the "Qualiteee and Intensiteee" ticked off. These fans are so far gone it's unreal, and they're not coming back anytime soon.

 

It's so easy to be an "out" person for your team's manager because you don't lose. If he's sacked it's "told you so" and if they improve, your team does and its "ah well I was wrong but we're great now and I'm reaping the rewards." I so want his ways to work, particularly because we can't and shouldn't be wedded to a historical style of play or players forever. He desperately needs to improve us against the lesser team, the home record and our rate of conceding first. 

 

I agree with someone who said he probably won't go until the summer unless something absolutely drastic happens, and frankly if we keep chopping and changing managers we're sure to be in the Championship in 2-3 years time. I just hope, for everyone's sake, that if we do bin Puel his replacement is given the time, patience and ability to change things if they're in the same league position after this many league games.

Nothing's changed and we can expect more of the same from the stubborn Mr. Puel. As a result, there is no need to rush into a new appointment but he's gone in the summer (the main reason why incoming transfers in this window are very unlikely). However, if he can overcome his stubbornness and adopt a more positive approach re. team selection and formation, get more out of his talented young squad, and create some excitement, who knows?
