    One man cannot carry the rest of the defence. We got Russell Martin from Peterborough when they were bottom of the Championship and he couldn't get in the team. He's now a first team regular in the Premier League.<ok>

    Because i have seen alot of Naughton and i have seen Martin play for Peterborough a few times.

    People always argue who is better Messi or Ronaldo but because they dont play for their team they not allowed an opinion <doh>

    Martin play for Peterborough, crikey that's going back some!

    I remember this game last season and you lot going on about how you had the best team, you had erikson and you hadn't lost at home under him. You underestimate us and look what happened, you got out played and beaten by a much superior side who are now plying there trade in the prem. What on earth makes you think you are better than us now??

    We have the better players but you have the better team

    Oh no, not again!

    <doh>

    Go through our respective teams from our last game (Swansea and Watford), and tell us who are the better players.

    That's the thing, I don't think he is. I think he actually believes some of their players are better than ours!

    Well in that case he's either completely and utterly bonkers, or knows nothing about football. In which case, still don't engage with him

    As individual players you team really isnt that good. If you want to delude yourselves and think it is thats fine. But as a team you have a very good team and thats why you doing so well.

    Put it this way and yes i know it doesnt mean alot but it proves my point. Before this season how many of your players have played in the prem on a regular and consistent basis?

    We have quite alot

    OK, he's obviously joking then

    Yes- it proves that your team is made up of premier league failures and ours is made up of premier league successes!!

    i can't believe this 'debate' is still going on!!

    proud fox, you sir are without doubt the most foolish poster i've read on not606. how can you genuinely believe that leicester have better players than the team sitting 8th in the premier league?

    its utterly ridiculous!

    i spent some of this morning with a watford fan who went to your game on tuesday. he was quite impressed with leicester to be fair and didn't feel you deserved to lose the match. i mentioned your comments and he practically pissed himself.

    apparently you are 'living in a dream world' <ok>

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! That is completely irrelevant to what we are talking about. Plenty of teams have been promoted, done well, and stayed up in the second season...

    Back on topic. Realistically there are only three Leicester players that would make it into our 18-man match day squad: Bamba- I watched the ACN final and he did look good; Wellens- he was highly rated last season and would be a strong addition to our rotating midfield; and Nugent would make a decent back-up striker while Vaughan finds his fitness. The rest of your team simply aren't good enough

    Schmeichel would get in your team. Nugent is better then a Vaughan but Vaughan is decent but too injury prone. Konchesky would get in your team and Matt Mills would. Wellens wouldnt anymore though and if Beckford plays like he is recently he would.
