People can and will blame Puel all they like, but that was an unprofessional performance by players who are experienced and clearly have the quality to beat a League 2 side. They proved today why Puel doesn't play most of them.
I don't want to see Morgan, Fuchs, Simpson, James, Okazaki, King or Iheanacho in a Leicester shirt ever again. Absolute pile of dog waste. Get them out this window and fill the squad with the kids.
They've let themselves down, they've let their fans down and most sadly, they've let Vichai down.

Not let me down
Foxello. Everyone deserves to be criticised after that. Including the manager.
Your attempts to exempt him are a little bizarre.
Wasted chances and poor substitutions coat is that game. Oh, and a moment of madness from Albrighton!

I hope you’ll look back at some point and realise this was a little too far.

No, I don't think it is. This was an opportunity to win a trophy to celebrate his life and it would have been a fitting tribute to a great man. They were an embarrassment today.

Mate take it from me - you are going way too far with this, waaaay too far. And that’s from someone who has done the same many times
In all of this I have to say that Newport did play very great spirit and determination. Their first goal was quality. We should remember their lowly stature in the football pyramid, and that, to them, Leicester is a "big side". They and their fans will enjoy this moment for many years to come.

See my comment to BS. I'm not exempting Puel from blame. I wouldn't have played James. I wouldn't have bought on King. I would have kept Elder and played him instead of Fuchs. I wouldn't have had Morgan and Evans as the centre back pairing. But even taking all of that into account, that team was strong enough to beat Newport.
Again, let me be clear - if Puel played a load of academy players and we blatantly disrespected Newport and we lose, then I would be joining you all in bashing Puel. But he didn't. That team was a team that should beat Newport. Half of that starting line up have title medals.

Sorry but his decision making was really poor today. I don’t blame him for the starting line up, I blame him for continuing with 2 defensive midfielders until the final minute. That’s bonkers. Yes the players were good enough but there was no support in the final third because of the bizarre focus on such a defensive midfield
He takes as much responsibility for today as the players do
And also he’s the only Leicester manager ever to play Albrighton at right back. Not right wing back - right back!!

That makes the starting line up wrong too - far too defensive against a League 2 side and it didn't work - yet again - with us conceding early.
