    You angling for an avatar bet on that? ... or have you been sniffing correction fluid to the point of deluded subscribing to Quentin's 'prescient' (and tragically failed) Leicester City spiral hypothesis? <laugh>

    In a way that gives us hope that we can improve even further than last season, when we were a little inconsistent but did beat City, Chelsea and Arsenal ... and do it with fast exciting footie to boot ...<cheers>

    You said most exciting in the league. What makes your youngsters more exciting than other teams youngsters?

    I'd obviously claim ours (TAA, Gomez, Origi, etc) are more exciting since they helped us with the CL and challenge for the PL. Not to mention they're just better players too.

    Perspective?

    Etc = Sepp Van Den Berg, Ben Woodburn, Harry Wilson & Rhian Brewster. All looking like being party of this season's squad. Heavily linked to Harvey Elliott too; for the future but do we're done that you named!

    You've still not defined what you mean by exciting though. Success? Good individual football? Most potential?

    More the footie I'm expecting ... Maddison and Tielemans are creative, Barnes, Gray and Chilwell have electric pace and Choudhtry and Ndidi are both beasts when out of possession .. also the kid we have just signed from Luton, James Justin (21) is by all accounts a right sided Chilwell and might get his chance if we push Pereira further forward ...

    It could all crash and burn, if course, but I don't think Leicester fans have ever been more excited about our squad ... and, of course, an attack minded manager who is more than happy to give youth a chance <ok>

    I actually agree with him on the squad I think they'll do very well next season. I'd avoid the post match soundbites from Brenda though, there's nothing more tedious in all of footy.

    I don't disagree mate. Just trying to get him to define what he means by exciting <laugh>

    I think he means it's an exciting squad with lots of potential. But he said "most exciting in the league", excitement really comes down to individual preferences.

    Short story... Just being a argumentative picky **** :)

    10 ... he won 5 and drew 2 ... but it was more the attacking intent, especially at home .. we beat Arsenal 3-0 and it could have been 7 or 8 ... they have always been a bit of a bogey team for us. Puel did some good things on the recruit.ent front but tactically was overly cautious, especially at home.

    You'll change your mind by the end of the seasn mate. Attacking wise he's fine, he's not got a clue defensively though.

    I actually watched your game against Man City and by God, I'm glad I don't have to watch a Brod defence any more!
