Pamplemousse

At Watford he was very defensive, made his team very difficult to beat. The Spanish Puel, which for me is brilliant, for others, not so good. We'll see I guess. This is a direct quote, which those from the PTS thread will recognise... "As a coach, the most important thing is quality, not quantity."

His coaches at Watford and Espanyol were Antonio Diaz Carlavilla and Alberto Giráldez

Guan's post suggests an announcement will be made tomorrow, I hope it's tonight. Might have a quiche tomorrow for dinner to celebrate.

QSF will be a major upgrade on Hughes

I'd rather people were injured or suspended for this one than the crucial Cardiff game coming up. We'll see what Spurs side turns up, they haven't been that impressive against teams down the bottom, haven't rolled anyone over.

Davis and Ward-Prowse to come in then?

We're going to get a tonking at Wembley (I've sadly got a ticket) but Cardiff is a MUST MUST MUST win, no exceptions at all.

Not a terrible result. Would I still sack Hughes? Yes.

We just need to learn to score in the 90th minute or later and not allow the opposition any time to equalise.

So you want him to name the same team that lost to Fulham?

Nope, but I'm a better WUM than you'll ever be. Thanks for taking the bait

Can someone tell me how Leicester are doing? Presumably Puel is being outclassed again... is that right? Hello?

I just want to correct the narrative here - we have to sell before we can buy because we have no room in our 25 man squad. It's nothing to do with finances.

Complete and utter garbage. You should try and admit that you were wrong at the time, but there is simply no comparison between Puel and Pellegrino/Hughes - yet not too much difference between the players all three had at their disposal. You've written quite a lot but have managed to embarrass yourself with demonstrating your complete lack of footballing knowledge, congratulations, that takes some doing.

Easy, we went to top of the league Wigan and in the end were too much for them.

Don't give Heisenberg any excuses, he still refuses to count our two wins against Liverpool.

He was dealt a terrible set of cards and still got us to 8th place. Guardiola probably wouldn't have been able to do that, only a world class genius of football could have achieved what Puel did.

Losing games? Yes, that is currently happening.

Can't they break Financial Fair Play rules or something soon, we need some entertainment. Rochdale away in the FA cup on the weekend, one win away from being in the hat along with us... I know we're not in the best of form but we'd still beat them fairly comfortably, let's be honest.

At the moment we definitely need to sell first, but that's because we don't have any room in the 25 man squad.

I wouldn't bother with these people. I and a couple of others have the satisfaction of knowing that we were right at the time, but very few people on here want to admit that they were wrong all along.

I'm talking historically

Paulo Sousa's red and white army. Only concern that his record in this country is, at best, patchy, but those were amongst some of his first jobs and he's done better since.

We have a horrendous record at St Mary's against Man Utd, so yes we will lose. Hughes final game.

I mentioned him last week. Would not be a terrible option.
