Said before this game that it could be a chance for Puel to put concerns to bed.
Instead we properly ****ed it up, the same problems persist and we are back at square one.
Shit result, stupid decisions from players and manager. All a hodgepodge and anyone who says a manager isn’t responsible for his teams disciplinary record is being naive.
Like Pop. I’m fed up with this now. Bet the atmosphere down the ground is crap.

It's hard to look forward to this with Puel in charge. We may well find ourselves watching Maddison or Vardy partnering Maguire given his approach to team selection.

It's the nature of our implosion that is so frustrating. We know we are going to be a goal down before the first 15 minutes are out but then we often have these moments of excellence in games and patches where we look like we could go on and score a bucket load. Then it happens; the inevitable shit storm of players making stupid decisions and/or the manager making bizarre substitutions and/or tactical decisions.
Do you really think Iheanacho was better than Vardy?

I wasn’t at today’s game.
I don’t feel good about the way we are going.
This is based on games I have gone to, not today’s game.

Morgan, Ndidi, Iheanacho, Amartey and Vardy stunk the place out. We still have major issues at LB as well. For all the fantastic improvements Chilwell has made to his game, he still can't defend very well at all. He did however try to make things happen going forward and was one of the few along with Mendy to come out of today's game with any credit.

Iheanacho assisted a goal. Vardy missed a sitter and ballsed up several good positions.
Like the good position Vardy ballsed up because he crossed the ball to where Nacho should have been, but he was ambling forward instead of sprinting into the box?

I've been Puelis out for a long time but the start of this season has me concerned about the bigger picture. I'd be reassured that switching managers would solve shit by him openly admitting he's a ****ing idiot or something because I can't see any logic in our transfer activity.
We obviously needed another central defender to partner Maguire. Once shit got stirred up we needed at least 2 in should he leave. What we've got is 3 who the manager clearly thinks are shite. So shite he'd not bring one on to replace a player determined to get sent off. Either that or he's a ****ing idiot.
We needed a right back as he doesn't like simpson. Off we go shopping to buy an expensive right sided player who clearly is no more of a defender than John ****ing Curtis. Then we stick a Jack of all trades, master of cock all at right back.
For a distinctly average team we have a number of expensive duds on our books. Silva, Iborra, Ian Nachos before going into Salami etc. Does make me wonder....
Shambles.
He still needs a slap for not taking Morgan off though.

He assumed Vardy would have shot, as everyone else in the stadium did also. But yes in hindsight he shouldn’t have assumed.

I’m not sure about the centre back scenario, but the right back situation is 100% Puel’s **** up.
He firstly ostracises a Premier League winning right back who is good enough for this level, and then brings in Ricardo (I’m positive this is one of his signings) who whilst is a decent winger, is never a defender in a million years.

He's a forward player. He's supposed to make a living out of scoring goals. There's always a chance of a rebound or a pass rather than a shot. Ian Nacho appears to be either very lazy or here just because we could afford him and he had no other options.
Even if he thought Vardy would shoot, he should have been following up for a rebound.
I find Nacho to be our most frustrating player. He clearly has ability, but too often he wanders around looking like he doesn't give a shit. There were times in the game today when he worked hard pressing players, and others when he looked like he'd rather be anywhere else.

This is exactly my view of him. There is no doubt he should have been breaking his neck to get into the box but instead he was a spectator. He just doesn't look happy to be playing for us and it's unbelievably frustrating given that we have seen the talent he has in patches. It's hard to see him as anything other than exceptionally lazy at the moment.
