ArticleController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Article;
//use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Request;

use App\Http\Requests;

class ArticleController extends Controller
{
    public function index(){
        $articles = Article::all();
        return view('articles.index',compact('articles'));
    }
    public function show($id){
        $article = Article::findOrFail($id);
        return view('articles.show',compact('article'));
    }

    public function create(){
        return view('articles.create');
    }

    public function store(){
        $input = Request::all();
        return $input;
    }
}

create.blade.php

@extends('app')


@section('content')
    <h1>Write a New Article</h1>

    <br/>

        {!! Form::open(['url' => 'article']) !!}
        <div class="form-group">
            {!!Form::label('title','Title:')!!}
            {!! Form::text('title',null,['class'=>'form-control']) !!}
        </div>
        <div class="form-group">
            {!! Form::label('body','Body:') !!}
            {!! Form::textarea('body',null,['class' => 'form-control'])!!}
        </div>
        <div class="form-group">
            {!!Form::submit('Add Article',['class'=> 'btn btn-primary form-control']) !!}
        </div>
        {!! Form::close() !!}

@stop

index.blade.php

@extends('app')

@section('content')
    <h1>Articles</h1>
    <br/>
    <?php foreach ($articles as $article): ?>
        <article>
            <h2>
                <a href="/article/{{$article->id}}">{{$article->title}}</a>
            </h2>
            <div class="body">{{$article->body}}</div>
        </article>
    <?php endforeach ?>
@stop

routes.php

<?php

Route::get('about','PagesController@about');
Route::get('contact','PagesController@contact');

Route::get('article','ArticleController@index');
Route::get('article/create','ArticleController@create');
Route::get('article/{id}','ArticleController@show');

Route::post('article','ArticleController@store');

EDIT 1 php artisan route:list output here:

GET|HEAD | about | App\Http\Controllers\PagesController@about    
GET|HEAD | article | App\Http\Controllers\ArticleController@index  
GET|HEAD | article/create | App\Http\Controllers\ArticleController@create 
GET|HEAD | contact | App\Http\Controllers\PagesController@contact

EDIT 2 and SOLUTION

with php artisan route:clear clear your route list and do php artisan route:list you will get your all routes. it worked fine for me.

You are requesting to a route that is not supporting post requests. Laravel makes you to specify your request method in routes. And will not let you request post in pages that need get request. And will throw a MethodNotFound exception. — Ali Farhoudi

Try to change this in create.blade.php:

{!! Form::open(['url' => 'article']) !!}

to this:

{!! Form::open(array('route' => 'article.store')) !!}

UPDATE

Run php artisan route:clear to clear routes cache.
