Course he did . Someone he's friendly with & gets on with who speaks French & has knowledge of English game. It's a no brainier. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Which is exactly what Puel was brought in for, to improve our younger players . **** me, it takes more than half a season Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think they were just amazed that Forster saved the initial header Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Be interesting whether Blackburn play him in the cup this weekend Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I always thought it depended on the circumstance. If a player falls off the pitch as part of his natural movement , it would be offside . If he steps off pitch or doesn't come back on after falling off pitch the goal stands . Maybe wrong , but that's my understanding. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nice arse covering. If he's shiete it's because of Hull & if he's good you were right. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hector Bellerin named Redmond in his most difficult opponent 11 that he's faced . What does he know though , he only played against him as opposed to posting on a football forum about him . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Exactly. West Brom away Watford away Bournemouth away Palace away West Ham away Norwich away We're games I travelled to and was as bad as anything I've seen this season. Even Villa away was one of the sloppiest defensive performances I've seen for a number of years. When you add the Everton, Villa, Stoke home games and the embarrassing cup exit 6-1 , and the FA cup lasted one home game. The EL was humiliating , the tactics as we went out were a real throwback to Branfoots days. Worse than any tactics employed by Puel . All water under the bridge , but here's my main point. All the above were with Mane& Vic. Two of the leagues best players. I could just about accept people saying " I wanted Koeman out & now I want Puel out". But they won't say that because they were wrong then and it also shows how fickle and knee jerk they are . Instead the wrap it up in "style of play" or " dressing room unrest" or he's " out of his depth". Laughably claiming that they " knew Ron would turn it round". Tactically Bournemouth & West Ham away were as good as anything Ron produced . What we haven't had is the barnstorming home performances, but put Mane in and maybe we would have done so. Surely having a manager genuinely interested in promoting youth and making young players better is a far better way to go then somebody who wants an instant side, to further his career. Who knows we may even get him to hang around a while , rather than bugger off as soon as they receive a better offer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Probably the same reason we were shiete this time last season . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

**** me , we had this nonsense posted by someone during the Spurs game , now Bournemouth. Are we going to have this every time a game is on sky or are people going to get new material that's not quite so boring Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pony. The board know exactly what they think at the moment , they'll back Puel . Whether that's right is open to debate but trying to make out they are somehow thrashing around ,unsure of which way to go , is pure rubbish. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

According to loads of skates on the BBC Facebook post about this. The bloke "throw a hissy fit" , he then "abused the St Johns ambulance staff" before " spitting and swearing at the Blue Few ", so that's why he was booed lol . All this with a broken leg... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I voted in because it's ****ing stupid to get rid of a manger after half a season when he's 10th in the league. I wasn't particularly keen on Koeman and saw some dire performances which have been masked by a Mane inspired run in. I've no doubt had Koeman stayed with this squad we'd be lower in the league than Puel has us. The main reason I voted in was his attitude towards youngsters. In this respect he's like Poch. If an untried nipper is 3rd in line as left back and your first 2 are out, he'll play you. Ron would have stuck Yoshida or Coco the clown there. Same on Sat, nipper on bench , defender off so he goes on. Again Koeman would have put Davis on and moved people out of position. I'm not saying he's a good a manager as Poch, but in his approach to playing nippers he is. There maybe "whispers" coming from the dressing room ( but I'm always suspicious when these whispers match the posters views) from senior players, but instead of whinging they should look in the mirror. Sat Jose & Yoshida made clear and avoidable errors. VvD missed blatant sitters that would have taken us out of EL group. Forster has been shocking of late, long missed chances at Old Trafford that spoilt a pretty good performance, how many 2 yard misses has JRod had this season, 3? We haven't won at Everton for god knows how long, haven't beaten Spurs at home for a similar period and haven't won the last game of the year for 6 years ( so I read yesterday) , so the last 3 performances have been replicated over the years. I remember Shane Long giving us the run around at St Mary's in our pre Puel " glory" years , Wigan and Everton also making us look average. Personally, I think the away performances have been pretty much on par with anything Ron or Poch did. Some very good ( Boscombe & West Ham) and some very poor. Our home performances haven't been up to the level of our 2 previous managers , but results have been okish. Poch's home performances were the best I've seen since Lawrie & Rons were inflated by Mane, Pelle & Vic, all of whom have now left. I always thought that this day would come, that the past 4 years were a " golden " period for our club, yes, it's pretty shocking that a "golden period" is 8/7/6 with no cup win or even a semi final, but you only have to look at our history to see this. All things being equal I would place this club in the top 12 of English football and would hope for a decent cup run ( and maybe European football) every couple of years. Therefore, I would take this season as about par , and you don't sack a bloke at par unless he's had time to mound the team, had time to develop the nippers and bring a couple of fresh faces in. He is suffering with comparisons with the 2 previous managers in the same way Chris Nicholl suffered after Lawrie ( not that I'm comparing this football to Chris' exciting brand) . However, it's not a comparison you can make ( with Poch & Ron ) . If this guy had Mane, Pelle & Vic and we'd had the same season id be with you outers, pitch fork in hand. But he's been dealt a poor hand by the board ( a hand I'm sure he knew was coming) and is doing an ok job with it. Nothing great, but nothing like as poor as some of you are making out.

Well done to the lad and well done to Claude for chucking him in, when he's under pressure . Not an easy thing to do , need a result and turn to an inexperienced nipper . There's no doubt Ron would have played an experienced pro out of position to cover the loss of Cedric. Great to see youngsters being given a chance. I thought the lad did well and deserves a lot of credit. Simms, McQueen and now this lad prove things aren't all bad. None would have featured under Ron IMO Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm not a "happy clapper" either, just a bloke who thinks managers should be given more than half a season , especially when we're 10th in the league and in a semi final. If Monk & Beats did that I'm sure there wouldn't be the same moaning about them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank god . That's all we need failed Swansea manager in tandem with failed Accrington manager . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

****ing jokers . You cry about players and mangers jumping ship as soon as they get the chance , moaning about loyalty and calling them ****s ect ect . Yet lose 3 games in a row and despite being mid table & in a semi final want the manager out . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Who was the last Saints manager to win at Everton Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This time last year the performance at Norwich was far far worse than today. For 70 mins we were OK. Lukaku then started to get it into feet & bully our centre halves. Swap him over with JRod and we'd have won. Personally I didn't think it was too bad until that point. Fonte & Yoshida clearly at fault for 2 and 3 goals. Score line flattered them , but that's the way it goes when you're on a poor run. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Jrods now missed a hat trick of chances , I blame Redmond & Puel Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No chance . It'll be Puels fault Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I blame Puel for Jose & Yoshida ****ing the last 2 goals up . Clearly it's not their fault but the clueless manager . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Puel out , we always beat Everton away. Poch managed it and Ron did as well..........didn't they? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok so far, pretty decent away performance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
