Pamplemousse Posted 2 January, 2017 Share Posted 2 January, 2017 What worries me is why we have just collapsed suddenly. The players have let Puel down massively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Marco Posted 2 January, 2017 Share Posted 2 January, 2017 The sad thing is when Everton looked like they couldn't be arsed we were the better team. They go up a gear and start playing, where as we can't, we remain the same. Ah well at least we were 12th this time last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheaf Saint Posted 2 January, 2017 Share Posted 2 January, 2017 Can't blame Puel for this. It's not nhis tactics that have been lackign today, it has been our total inability to create any decent scoring opportunities let alone score from them. Redmond is an utter waste of space. Tadic has not been in form since returning from that nose injury, but we know he has quality when on form. Long has the touch of a JWP and Clasie work hard but offer no goal threat at all. And as I type, we let in another after Fonte gets caught dawdling with the ball in our own 3rd. Puel can only work with what he has got. The players have been nowhere near good enough today.

Nordic Saint Posted 2 January, 2017 Share Posted 2 January, 2017 Unfortunately Puel didn't have any option but to play him with VVD suspended. It does blow apart the suggestion that we could sell either Fonte or VVD this window, and cope with Yoshida and the remaining one of the two. Les Reed will sell them anyway. He's sold the attack. Now, he'll sell the defence. Until Reed goes, there's not much any manager will be able to do as the squad is only going to get progressively weaker.

James Posted 2 January, 2017 Share Posted 2 January, 2017 It's the same old really, nothing different. Gaps to the forward players is too big, redmond/tadic coming deep for the ball then having to make up a lot of ground to get near the final third. Repeat constantly. Everton have been truly inept, a team with a bit of ambiton would have taken it to them today. We've just let them have this game as we have shown nothing apart from trying to keep them at arms length. The Christmas rotation malarkey hasn't really worked. Players should be fit enough to play more than 1 game in 5 days, if they're not then stick them into a fitness camp. The rotation thing has just not worked at all and is implemented at random it would seem. Completely agree on fitness, we must have the most unfit first XI in the league as no other team needs to rotate as much as we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheaf Saint Posted 2 January, 2017 Share Posted 2 January, 2017 And the collapse is complete. Thanks Puel, you are ruining our team. Yeah of course, it's all Puel's fault that Fonte just switched off and gave the ball away so cheaply in our own 3rd. Muppet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hypochondriac Posted 2 January, 2017 Share Posted 2 January, 2017 I've been to Milan and Prague this year and seen absolutely pathetic performances. It's only after the last game that I finally snapped and I now believe puel has to go. It's not so much the results but the manner of our performances. They really have been incredibly poor for the majority of the season and it's not the entertaining football that fans want to see. We are now an extremely mediocre team whereas the last few years there has always been the promise of something greater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Munster Posted 2 January, 2017 Share Posted 2 January, 2017 Pretty impressive effort to turn us into a bang mediocre side with no cutting edge or attacking thread, in the space of 4 months.

James Posted 2 January, 2017 Share Posted 2 January, 2017 WE ARE NOT GOING TO SACK PUEL ANY TIME SOON Go and support someone like Swansea if you want the manager out every time Genuine question, do you honestly see the situation improving under Puel? He's out of his depth and there are times when a change can be made for the better (see Poch for Adkins). Just because Swansea are **** and have changed their manager doesn't mean that it can't be done successfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
