Agree we won't be sacking him because the Board won't want to admit failure, but it is plain that Puel has lost the confidence of the team.

Puel's not working. Players don't know what to do or even want to play for him.

He has no authority over them and cannot inspire them. He is the problem, and the sand is nearly run through.

Allardyce is off the market...

Off the cliff and into freefall.

Looking forward to the clappers excuses for this!

Implosion.

The omens are poor for any such recovery, with an uninspiring Puel and weaker squad.

Puel is turning out a dreadful appointment.

Everything in the garden is rosy.

Lost the dressing room. They aren't listening to him.

Puel seems to have no plan, no strategy, and no authority with the players. The meter is running...

Oh no.

Tearing into Boufal too! Stelling is always pro-Saints and seems more disgusted than the ever-diplomatic Le Tiss...

The squad is unbalanced. Too many similar rather than complimentary players - Boufal/Tadic; a homogenous lightweight midfield; 3, even 4 misfiring fragile 'strikers', the list goes on. Recruitment went awry since that backroom bloke was poached by Tottenham.

Hull are all over them at the moment. Such a joy to behold.

Great goal! 2-1 Hull.

Hull goalie punches it into own net - a hallmark of a team going down. Pity.

Koeman was sold a pup with the Everton gig. Where's all the big money for players?

Remember how we were craving his return from long term injury? When he did our defence was impregnable for a long time. He looks depressed to me. Something is not right upstairs.

In. For the moment. It is too early to make a verdict and it is not like we are staring relegation in the face. The signs are not good though, even allowing for him inheriting a weakened squad. The buzz about the club we have all enjoyed for the last 7 years or so is distinctly ebbing away.

Hallelulah. Formation this, formation that...like some ****ing table football game where you have fixed positions.

We are a far weaker team this season, it is as simple as that. Not Puel's fault.
