Two weeks in a row we’ve put a top six side totally on the back foot.  Nine shots on goal.  If you are still bitching that this is shit football, I have no words for you.

 

We clearly have a talented team.  Looking more and more like it is ready to break out, but unable to break the habit of shooting themselves in the foot.

 

A third of the season left.  A chance to fashion a “great escape” from mediocrity and set ourselves up to capitalize on this core.  We do need to start getting results, now.  But these young guys won’t hit the beach and I am staying behind them.

A loss is a loss. Hugely positive performance, such a young team, how can anyone not be excited? We're not gonna get relegated, we're probably not gonna qualify for Europa so let's experiment with these young players and have them gel this season so we're ready to really push on next year.

Done with this season.  Write it off.  Playing weakened sides in the cups really payed off eh?  IMO new man, new ideas needed in the summer.

 

People saying best performance in a while...we lost 3-1 against a stuttering Spurs side in 2nd gear with their two best players out.

In 2014-5, we were bottom of the league and looked like we were going down but at no stage did we look like we were totally outclassed. We kept supporting the team and manager. Then with 9 games to go we clicked and won 7 of those games, sealing a miracle survival.

 

We’ve played well in the last 3 games with little reward but Tielemans looks like he’s the missing link. If Vardy starts the next match and we keep our heads up and keep fighting, I think we’ll turn things round and go on a good run. 

 

Let’s keep supporting the team, NOT booing them at home, and try to encourage our younger players. Whether we keep Puel or get shot of him at the end of the season our impact as fans on these young players will last far longer than Puels tenure at this club.

Can't fault that performance at all really. 

Says a lot that we come away from a side challenging for the title and a 3-1 score flatters them. 

 

Yes we all had a go at Puel for dropping Vardy but we still created plenty of opportunities and should have buried some of them. Even more so when he was on the pitch as well. Game could have even been put to bed by the time they scored any of their goals and that's what frustrates me. 

 

Don't see how Puel can wholly be blamed for that defeat. Some players out there will be very disappointed at not scoring. 

The promising thing is that we played some very nice football today.

If we didn't have Tielemens I'd be more worried about this rut we're in.

 

Still think Vardy should have started, Gray doesn't suit striker at all, because he isn't one!

 

Vardy shouldn't have taken the penalty but I had no confidence in Maddison either. Still a lot to work on and put right when it comes to finishing chances, we need our coaches and sports scientists to work on this, as it's a real problem.

 

Puel got a lot right today to be fair to him, but this is a real fvcking worry.

Anyone who wants to slag off the manager after that is a fool. We absolutely bossed it, they could have no complaints if we'd walked away winners by 2 or 3. The difference? Moment of class from Eriksen and Son having the composure that Barnes, Vardy, Gray, Iheanacho, Chilwell and Evans lacked. 

 

Tielemans was mint, and I think if Vardy, Barnes, Gray, Okazaki and Iheanacho can find their shooting boots, he's the missing piece of the puzzle with his dynamism and passing. Positive signs, 2 weeks until Palace, get on the training pitch and focus on finishing

Can't blame Puel for that, players are to blame for crap finishing.

 

They took their chances, we didn't take ours.

 

Tielemans MOTM, nice to have a midfielder who can actually pass forward.

 

Next two home games are massive.

Cant blame the manger 

for not bringing in a striker in the summer and still relying on a sub thats scored about 4 goals in 45 games
