Occasionally looked very tidy on the ball. Looked dangerous, dreadful miss, but this has been a good game so far.

I think we'll see Adam coming on for Whelan, if he doesn't have to replace Ireland who is looking banged up. I don't care who it is glenn is having a comatose first 45. Get it sorted. Only Whelan? we are awful. If all we are going to do is lob balls into the box may as well get Crouch on. No movement no pace, no quality.

Pity we didn't score from Shawcross' free header and N'zonzi's chance from 5 yards. Just have to stop getting caught in possession and allowing them to counter.

Southampton are a few places above us in the table and that half showed why.

Diouf always gets the ball with his back to goal. Not for want of running though. I wish the midfield would release it quicker and trust him to cause a bit of mayhem. Yes.

stemmed from a shit cross from Cameron and wolly not staying with his man at the corner. And Whelan ball watching at the near post closest man to the incoming cross let fonte drift infront of him to head across goal... to an open schnieder... forgot the main part lol typical oatcake. He was wolly's man. wolly should of shown a bit more desire and stayed with him and knocked Whelan out of the way as well.

No movement no pace, no quality. Haha! That's funny because in the preview for the match I said I'd start with Crouch, but Hughes will pick Walters. Mind we can only make three subs, and two at the half would set us up for disaster with our injury record.

Has Hughes ever had to explain why we concede so many from set pieces?

We are shit at set pieces because of it.

No movement no pace, no quality. Did you miss his passing?no marking and wandering into three saints... I'm not saying it was only him. Nzonzi had a few misses, Geoffs crossing has been bad, and theres been some bad mistakes had by everyone but none more so than from Glenn, that's the truth. Sorry it doesn't fit the oatcake narrative. He's had alot of brain farts in that 45.

There is a long way up to top six Understatement of the season. We're closer to the bottom 3 than the top 6, and that's not merely said to be negative!

Leicester winning at half time against Swansea and Wet Spam to play Man City, a win today would put us in a great position. All to play for.

No it was Whelan's job to charge the cross he stood still instead of going at it like usually does. Sorry, you're wrong. His half attempt at a jump is even worse. Sunday school near post stuff.

Has Hughes ever had to explain why we concede so many from set pieces? Yes, and he said we play a little different now with different kind of players.... Yet it's Whelan who loses his man on the goal this time.

I've deceided it would be great if Leicester stay up. Credit to Pearson and the board for sticking with him.

Yet it's Whelan who loses his man on the goal this time. When Francis slows down and uses Whelan as a barometer at HT for the poor marking... Only he could make it as if Southampton planned that to happen as if it was devine... fuck him.
