I don't think Leicester are ****, far from it. I actually feel they're one of the best of the 3 promoted sides this year, not just down to quality, but they've got a decent team ethos and organisation there - more so than the other sides. They remind me of us when we first came back, a settled side who are organised - ultimately lacking a touch of quality here and there, but they're not ****.

Dejan has settled in well after playing with him last season. Oh my, he's a bit of a clueless one.

Adam Lallana: He's going to be in for a shock. Jesus christ, he's priceless.

I think their analysis starts and ends with Roy Hodgson and Ray Lewington going to 3pm matches in England. That's pretty much it.

I think it's more to do that it's a subscription based site, and copying and pasting stuff onto non-pay sites is probably a pretty big infringement of their t&c and could get this place in the ****!

Doubt they'll care much. Although, if Clyne doesn't get any game time in this round of games then I think people may start talking.......best English RB this season by an absolute country mile, no contest.

Dyer is a good call, so is Routledge. Not amazing players, but surely better than an unfit Theo and a pretty poor Townsend?

Weird. kind of proves that if you are English and are at a big club, no matter if you're benched or returning from injury, you'll get selected for England. Lambert wouldn't be anywhere near if he was a sub for us for example.

Cheers, great read.

A couple of posters stand out like a sore thumb on this thread. Sad.

I think we can all safely say that we are proud as hell of this club, for everything it stands for. This 'way' has success written all over it, but patience is required.

Ignore him, he's just being a plank.

BBC Reporter: "At Staplewood for a behind the scenes tour of the new #SaintsFC training complex. Looks incredible. Not allowed to tweet pics til midday tho" And apparently, Katharina has handed over Markus's lucky red and white scarf to the club, where it will remain.

Had a feeling that would happen, and it's absolutely fitting. Brilliant

I expect a full second by second account this evening.

Is there going to be a live Youtube stream of it or any coverage? or is it all being recorded for distribution later? And Saint Armstrong is a jammy bugger for getting the chance to tour it with Fonte!

I think Johnson and Lovren have lost their places in that side for the foreseeable.

An amazing video to be honest. Makes you damn proud, that's for sure. Also can't help feeling so bad for Rickie, I just sense he knows he should have stuck around. I'd save him from his nightmare in January if possible. Love the bloke.

MLG will be here shortly.

The QPR game was in September if you're referring to that goal. The goal in the Cup won't count. The 2 against Sunderland weren't amazing finishes all being told. (2nd was decent tbf)

Oddly, that 8-0 win didn't really contain any stand out goals. Lots of mistakes and errors, which we punished. Only other game was the 1-0 over Stoke I think. If you're thinking about the QPR game, that was in September.

Not sure it's the ''title race'' thing in particular, as people know we're not in a title race, but it's more so the complete invisibility of us. Chelsea aren't and weren't 9 points clear, it's factually incorrect.

Our start has given us a platform for a Top 6 finish, 5th or 6 - which I believe we will manage to achieve. I didn't think that at the start of the season, but there's something different with us this year. I can sense something happening. It's not an exaggeration, just watch them. Listen to their fans. They are a rabble, horrible to watch, no cohesive play, no pattern, nothing. They'll get the odd result here and there, but Top 10 at best for them I reckon. They lack proven quality anywhere apart from GK.

One win doesn't make much difference, they're not a team. A disjointed mess is one word to describe it. Not entirely sure what they've got there that suggests they'll finish above us at this moment in time. Just more negative outlook by you, which is no real surprise.

Lol @ spurs. What a complete and utter shambles they are.
