    They thought they were going to walk this league, only had to show up for a nailed on 3 points. They are the real madrid of the championship, good individuals but not a team.So more happy with our squad playing for each other. Only 3 teams on 100% now, congrats to Brighton, really putting other teams to the sword (but we know we are better):p

    Their signings have been numerous and costly, but to be perfectly honest, they haven't signed what I would view as quality - players that strike fear in the opposition fans. Nugent and Vassell up top? Nothing special.

    I do find it funny that a team that has purchased so many "Premiership-quality defenders" is leaking so many goals.

    The sooner we play them the better IMO as we are more likely to beat them before the defence gels.

    He'll probably sign 3 or 4 players before we play them. Theres nothing like throwing some money at a problem.

    Le God knows why they signed Sven..? As someone else on here said, he's a busted flush. I quite agree. All he'll do is spend a load of Leicester City's money, make them poor and then leave before Xmas.

    Agree with all the above. It's a team of individuals, there's no togetherness there and I really don't think Sven is the right man to do the job there despite his reputation. I know he was England manager for a long time but he hardly knows the actual English game. Most of the coaches and managers in the football league have developed and matured around the English game. Sven spent a year at Manchester City and less than that as a director of football at Notts County - not a lot of relevant experience on the CV.

    Based on? I thought Sven did pretty well at Man City and was very unlucky to get the sack. Leicester have bought a lot of players over the summer and will still have to gel. I still think they will be favourites with West Ham for the top 2 spots.

    Unlike us our team is nearly the same as last season which has helped us a lot. A pretty god damn good team too :D

    Just had a peek on the foxs forum - looks like Leeds are having a pop in a thread.

    The retort from a Leicester goon?

    'Lets all hope you die tomorrow in a very painful accident - Then we wouldn't need to read anymore of your **** - Now **** off'

    Classy stuff.
