All season we've waited patiently for Mesa and Bony to get game time or up to speed. Fans thought the squad was too weak and it was the worst in our EPL history, but Carlos has shown what it can achieve.
And he's done that without those two mentioned.
Watching Liverpool and Arsenal not many fans would've even thought about those two let alone bemoan the fact they're not playing.
And now, I think the same 11 needs to start again for Leicester barring injuries and what a bench we now have.
Bony, Andre Ayew, Tammy and King to name but the four.
We need to tap into the positivity Carlos has brought to the Club and really give him the total support he's deserved so far.
Onto Leicester. |  |

Couldn't agree more, Chris.
Watching on Tuesday, I couldn't believe how bluddy UP FOR IT our whole team was. They were totally unrecognizable from the bunch of no hopers who played the first half of the season.
I don't know what CC has done to them , but it's a minor miracle. We're a long way from out of the woods, though, so I pray he can keep doing it. |  | | |

I can always rely on you Mike to reply to a football post. Good man.
We don't get many football posts on here anymore. | |

Presumably King won't be on the bench against Leicester? |  | | |

Correct, he's on loan, so not allowed to play against his parent club. | | | |

Think a big part of this is personality. Whether hes a long term solution remains to be seen. But compared to that dour, personality-less twunt that was in the role before him, then he must be a lot more fun to work for.
Especially when has at least half a clue about tactics and the players he has |  |

Totally agree. Intelligent "Man" management is a rare thing in most walks of life - this is apparent in the contrast between the approaches of PC and CC. I've been on about this for ages - how important psychology is. A few weeks ago, not one of our players could cross a ball - the pressure was heaped on them by the coach, and yes the fans too (we need to remember this - Clucas mentioned it in his post-match interview), and it was showing in the performances. I did enquire whether we replaced the team psychologist (I think he/she were released a while back), but no-one seemed to know. We now have a coach that incorporates the role very well! In a recent conference, Frances Donovan asked CC how he was handling the pressure, and he laughed - he said something along the lines of family illnesses etc. being pressure, not football. He's obviously transmitting that to the players and it shows. We'll have some downturns of course, but in my view he's corrected what needed to be fixed. |  | | |

Our remaining home games:
Burnley.
West Ham.
Southampton.
Everton.
Chelsea.
Stoke.
With away games against Huddersfield, West Brom and Bournemouth we’ve got a great chance to stay in the Premier League. |  | | |

See I don't think he has Tom. A rocket I mean. I think he's given them something they believe in, where yes, they all know their job, but that they are encouraged to express themselves. It is noticeable that they all look like a weight has been lifted off them. I don't think it was that they weren't trying before, I think they were scared of their own shadows and of actually doing anything.
Carvalhal's last three interviews have been things of beauty. Apart from saying three times that Mesa couldn't settle in England, obviously... [Post edited 2 Feb 2018 11:30]

100% agree. Players like Naughton, VDH, Clucas and Ayew seem transformed at the moment.
I’d go unchanged tomorrow too. | | | |

I think CC has transmitted the positivity, confidence and belief right throughout the squad, backroom staff and fans. He does think carefully about how to strategically defeat the opponent on a given day, so being as Leicester seem strong at home, he may well make changes accordingly (maybe Bony up front for example). In this new environment, I bet the "fringe" players can't wait to get on the pitch and he'll know that. | | | |

Sorry, I forgot. I meant to say we're out of intensive care and in the day ward, hoping to go home soon, and in the meantime eating two sardines for dinner and waving to the neighbours. | | | |

He definitely hasn't done that. He's just brought a positive outlook to their lives and told them they're better than they are.
They didn't need a rocket, they needed a new approach and belief, but I get your point. | |

He's given the team confidence, whereas Clement looked to have "world on his shoulders", that fed through the side, plus his negativity going forward in games. The Jackal has got us believing we can defend and attack, we also look bit fitter, but that could be down to the players state of mind.... being happier with the game plan he gives them. But no doubt he is working the oracle . |  | | |

Carlos is a vastly experienced manager. Very confident in his own abilities and knows for sure that if the players respond to his directions they will improve. From the moment he took charge he was very confident in his ability to get us out of the bottom 3.
The amount of excitement and enthusiasm that he has shown and how happy he has been to get the job here has psychologically had a great effect on the players. I think he mentioned that he was meant to be a premier manager. He had missed out with the play offs and must have been a bit down at Sheffield Wednesday with the frustration of missing out on promotion.
His confidence and extrovert character has rubbed off on the players, some who were looking down trodden and lacking any type of confidence at all, have been transformed. He is a motivational manager, not the shouting, rocket up the arse type. He believes in our players, they are top players and he is loving working with them. There is nothing better than when someone believes in you to boost yourself up... |  |

All of a sudden it’s gone from 5 or 6 points adrift with a nightmare run of fixtures to being right in the mix and not having to play Liverpool, Arsenal or Spurs again this season.
We have looked superb in the last week or so exploiting teams that come to attack us. I think the biggest challenge now is going to be breaking down teams that come here for a point. Hopefully, that’s where Bony, Tammy and Andre Ayew come in. The current starting eleven is great for away games and the big teams at home. | | | |

If we had started as well as we did (suspend disbelief) against Arsenal and then conceded the first goal under Clement we would have collapsed in a heap.
The reaction to that setback was outstanding. It was as though the Arsenal goal had never happened. He deserves massive credit for the turn around in mentality.
They now look prepared to run through brick walls for the cause whereas they couldn't kick their way out of a paper bag five weeks ago. |  |
