    If Grayson has pulled his head out of his arse and put Connelly back at RB with Lees at CB then that is progress - Also clean sheet - But it has taken a while for the penny to drop... Pls dont change it again Larry

    Think one clean sheet is far too early for us to get carried away and assume our defence has been sorted

    Nothing to opologise for, instead of playing a centre back as a right back, the players played in the right positions. I was in Sports Management for 8 years (County), he was trying to be too clever

    No wind up but Kasper has just kept a 4th clean sheet in a row - (He didn't play in the match prior to that)

    I genuinely believe he is the best keeper in this league by some margin- I appreciate he didn't perform as well as this when he played for you - I think some players suit some clubs better than others

    Seen some hi-lights of your games m8,and while he is a fair keeper top 4 or 5 in this league.still flaps and not as good as lonergan,no way.Don't expect you to agree,but you will in time.

    I think it's safe to say you can thank your defense for the clean sheets. I've seen some of your highlights and Kasper still likes to flap around like a flailing moron. Most overrated keeper in the league, maybe, but best? Lonergan is better than him, and I'm sure more keepers are.

    I actually think Danger Fox has a point on the 'some clubs suit players nite's front.

    Some people on here weren't exactly happy when we signed Lonergan. He didn't exactly have a great season with Preston, but he's proven to be a great addition to the squad, and a lot of us rate him more highly than Schmeichel.

    I rate Lonergan much more highly than schmeichal and i have to admit when we sold schmeichal, i was very annoyed, especially at the price we sold him for but lonergan has been so much better.

    To be honest, Fox might have a point, maybe Leicester will just get the best out of Schmeichal, We can't complain though, Lonergan is doing great, and we have an extra 1.5 million for Bates' yacht.

    We signed Kasper for 1m and its probably the best bit of business we have done all season.

    You signed Lonergan for 250k and its probably the best bit of business you have done all season.


    I wouldn't have been impressed if we had signed Lonergan, at all, though but when we signed Kasper I was ecstatic. Says a lot I think.

    It says nothing. You were ecstatic when you signed Kasper based on his TV displays which we all knew didn't represent him properly as a player. Lonergan's been amazing so far, possibly even better than Kasper during his early displays.

    Agreed it does say a lot,

    Lonergan gets along with his job efficiently and quietly!

    Kasper is an arrogant little show off only good where he is today because of his dad
