    We're never going to be involved in a 0-0 draw. Ever. I know this will bite me on the arse but it just doesn't look at all possible!

    If I was a betting man, I'd put a couple of quid on a 0-0 draw now...

    Wouldn't actually mind a 0-0 tbh, would happily take a point away from this game.

    Clean sheet and a point away to one of the in form teams would be a statement of intent.

    I'm expecting lots of goals, tbh. Southampton are pretty potent in attack and our defence is still quite suspect, but I can see us getting a couple past them as well. No one has sussed Jamie Vardy out yet!

    Vardy isnt hard to work out. He is a basic footballer in the sense is all he does is give everything he has everytime he steps foot on the pitch

    Its stopping him that teams struggle with

    Agree, defenders know what hes going to do, but sometimes are just incapable of stopping it. Pace is one of the hardest things to defend against.

    Same team that beat Norwich - no real complaints about that.

    Lack of strikers on the bench worries me though - am surprised Dodoo isn't on there at least.

    Seems that hes gone quite defensive on the bench, lets hope they can earn those pizzas! <laugh>

    After Mahrez scored twice against them last time, no doubt they will have been preparing for him, the fact he isn't starting has wasted some time in their strategy meeting.

    Kinda unfair as he was solid the last time he played.

    So far the worry about Davis is justified...

    Shocking defending for their goal. Drinkwater has already cleared one off the line from the post and then they score from that position. It would have been a simple clearance if someone was on the post

    Danny Higginbotham has picked up on the lack of pace in Huth and Morgan and it forcing them to drop deep leaving big gaps between them and the midfield. Surely its time for Ranieri to change the formation to a back 3 or bring one of Huth or Morgan out for either Benalouane or Wasilewski

    Southampton are struggling at the min with Wanyama walking wounded and Cedric has a nasty cut after a clash of heads with Schlupp.
