Should we let him go 3 games from the end of the season or just at the end of that at this stage? Not sure whether waiting is better PR wise (after the fiasco with Claudio)
My heart agrees with you. I just think in modern football, it’s important to balance PR as it was a disaster when we sacking Claudio. We have nothing to win or lose either way so I guess I was posing the question whether it looks any better on the club not to hire and fire the same manager during the season that’s all
How we sacked Ranieri was a utter disgrace Sacking him at th airport after what he did was embarrasing and showed a lack of class from the club Puel deserves nothing other then his p45 We are shocking defensively. Boring and lack imagination and ideas in midfield. We need Mahrez to produce some magic to break teams down. Vardy is starved of service but somehow had hit 20 goals
I agree again, Ranieri needed to go but it was done badly, at the radisson I believe? I feel we still have some recovering to do. It will be damaging to sack another manager no doubt but I’d say look at the recruitment of him in the first place. I felt positive at the start but surely Shakespeare could have matched what he’s done!
Shakey shouldnt have been sacked. He had a very difficult start with the fixtures. The games Puel won was much easier fixtures which we probably would have won with Shakey anyway
Purely from a results business, with Vardy we are perfectly set up for a Sam Alladyce to play tonhis strengths. I’d take it.
Puel talks a really good game, about bringing through youth and playing attacking possession football. Problem is, I can do that as well. We don't have players who are comfortable doing that. We have a team that is growing old and mouldy. Kasper, Simpson, Fuchs, Morgan all past their best. Albrighton at right back? Not in a back 4 FFS. The board need to make a decision - either sack him or give him £200m to buy in players in the Summer. Personally, I would sack him.
I wouldn’t. Too short term. The next appointment needs to be right and needs the potential to have the longevity we haven’t had since Pearson
I wouldn’t put Albrighton in my bin list as he is a good squad player and may have potential at RWB but agree not in a 4. Chilwell is probably also suited to LWB so why don’t we have a system around this?
I wouldn’t want that. I said on the Drinkwater subject no as I want us to move on from the past and the same would go for Pearson. Fresh start needed all round. Some of these players rule the club and we need a strong manager to come in and clear out
We went back with Pearson before and it worked We need a manager who can actually control the dressing room. Pearson always did. Everyone else lets the lunatics run the asylum. Its time to change the old guard. In the summer I think its time to move Morgan, Huth, King, Ulloa, Slimani, Benalouane and Fuchs on I would consider offers for Gray and Silva aswell I cant see anyone wanting James due to injuries Plus we are probably going to lose Mahrez and who knows if Maguire and Ndidi will be here. If they have good world cups they will be high in demand if they arent already
No doubt Pearson would get the best out of this group. But this group have let themselves and us down as much as Puel. It’s also time to give them the boot. Personally I’d like Marco Silva. Young, attacking football with Watford and that unbelievable home record he even kept up with Hull
I’ve always thought I’d like Pearson in a higher role within the club. He turned the club round twice in terms of recuitment, scouting, sports science etc and would like him to do that again
