My streams perfect

‘you don't go to games’

I’ve been to over 100 games in the last four seasons Nev. Not that I’d ever criticise others who couldn’t make it to many/any or petulantly decide they couldn’t have an opinion

Ultimately, you'll all get your wish and Puel will be sacked, probably before the end of the season. But if you think he's the only problem, and that everything will be tickitty-boo when he's gone, you're deluded.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I’ve been saying for months on here that there is far more problems at the club than just the manager. But surely foxello you can’t make out that Puel is working. This is becoming Paulo Sousa part 2. Going into the new season on this run would be a disaster

I’m not sure the owners will have much choice but every hire and fire decision reflects badly on them in my opinion. I’ve no confidence they will get it right next time
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's pretty obvious that it's not working under Puel. I'm just not sure that it's 100% Puel's fault. He's made, and continues to make, errors with tactics and team selection. But as a 'collective', why are the players blameless? Why is nobody asking them to take more responsibility for their performances? Having a bad boss at work doesn't mean you give up, otherwise you wouldn't have a job. You might not give 100%, but you wouldn't just sit at your desk and do nothing.

Ps - I agree that irrelevant of manager selection etc, there are some responsibilities individual players have to take when they are playing badly. It would be completely unfair to blame a manager every single error on the pitch

The players are being asked to play a certain way, which is what they're doing. But it's their fault?

Albrighton at right back Nev and Foxello - tell me is that Marc’s choice???
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Of course not. It hasn't worked and I don't know why Puel persevered with it. If you're going to play Albrighton as a full back, you need to do it with a back 5 so he has more cover.

thats typical TB reveling in the fact that the manager is struggling with the same players that let down the managing genius Shakey and the mand that won us the premier league.

Why are you assuming that the players have downed tools though? It’s as easy a thing to say as ‘it’s all down to the manager’

They are trying to play a style of football that is completely alien to them. Marc Albrighton is at right back?!!! The decisions from the bench are baffling. I’m just not sure they know what to do if I’m honest

He can’t, he’ll never answer a direct question, just rubbish deflection every single time.

Keep trying Nev, keep trying!

Also, just to clarify, I'm not having a pop at people who watch streams (although it is technically illegal to do so I believe) or saying they can't have an opinion. I just think that, when a former professional who is watching the match at the ground is saying that players are not trying, that is probably a more worthwhile and accurate account.

posted on 28/4/18

does not matter where you play you try your best thats called professionalism listen to Piper say they aren't trying and he knows when players are not but.

Do you think i am enjoying this rubbish but i blame the players who don't want to adapt or change so they can fuff off at the end of the season and bring in the youngsters

Because that is what a former professional player who is watching the match is saying. He might be wrong, of course, but from what I'm hearing, it probably is a fair account.

Many people who are watching the game have said the players don't look like they're not trying.

It’s all Kaspers fault.

Anyway, I think we can all agree that Puel is a goner now. Can't wait for the summer when we expect Marco Silva and end up with Alan Pardew

Foxello, it isn’t illegal for an individual to watch a stream, it may be an infringement for the website to broadcast it - as per the European Union court of justice.
