My hope is that Brentford will do a Saints and start arranging those comfy red & white deck chairs now that safety is assured.

If Saints had any composure in the final third they'd be easily mid table. While a point at Old Trafford is not to be sniffed at, the failure to score against 10 men is a worry.

Big week coming up. The next seven days we'll tell us a lot more about Saints' prospects. Anything less than 3 points and the fat lady will be testing those vocal chords. Take 6 points and I might feel that hope building again.

A game in hand on Bournemouth, better goal difference and yet to play them at home. What's there to worry about? 😁

Liverpool at home on the last day should be a nailed on 3 points given this form. 😁

So Saints form since 1 Jan is 1.125 points per game. Maintain that and it gets us another 14 or 15 points. Tight.

Current form under Selles is 2 points a game. Keep that up (unlikely I know) and we'll stroll to the line with 47 points. 😇

The maths show that if Saints maintain their season form so far across the remaining fixtures then they'll amass the grand total of 32 points or thereabouts. I think that shows the size of the task ahead and the improvement required. Not impossible but it'll be very difficult.

How dare Saints give me hope again. 😬

That'll no doubt be the 4th or 5th turning point of the season.

If only Saints could use some of the pace within the team to grab a goal on the break when under that sort of pressure.

Let's face it - that was another dreadful home performance.

Saints so, so lucky to get those 3 points. Leicester finishing awful.

Jeez!!!

Moi got totally the wrong side of his man there.

This is painful. Saints look out on their feet.

Lavia giving the ball away pretty consistently now.

Didn't Sulemana used to have pace. What have the Saints coaches done to him?

Saints incapable of nicking one on the break. It just puts more pressure on the defence.

Or control the ball.

If only Saints could pass the ball.

Break the game up. Stoppages for injuries real or not. Still very early to be sitting off protecting a 1-0 lead. It'd be nice to get a 2nd on the break.

Walcott coming off? Can only think he's run out of puff. Played well.

Lazy clearance by Lavia.

Far too easy for Leicester again. Can't keep relying on them to miss easy chances.
