    Maybe, although I can't recall Fonte scoring. Lambert's goal was the one where the ball was passed/crossed to him from the right, and he let it come across his body before volleying it into the corner, wasn't it?

    He really wasn't. But either way, as you say, that was all in the past.

    Hmmm bit bold to predict Saints to score 4 without Lambert - we almost did against Forest but they're sh*t, whereas Leicester are playing sh*t at the moment but they are only 7 points off the play offs.

    I think Leicester will be well up for this game.

    I'm not confident at all... sorry to say it. Wish it was on Saturday though, pain in the arse being on a Monday!

    Hey, I know a perfect match for Beckford - Puncheon. Both arrogant little pr*cks who think they're better than they actually are. Why don't you take him off our hands. I think 5 mill is a fair price :wink:

    Foxes are playing good and bad in equal measure. I just hope that this is one of their bad days.

    What is it with Puncheon?

    I've seen him play a lot and he's always looked classy.

    When we were in League One away at MK Dons he ran the show and looked like he could walk into the Prem like Delph, Beckford ect.

    He's surely better than what we've got at the moment.

    I was having a laugh but actually now I think about it Puncheon could do a job for you. Am I right in thinking you are short of wingers?

    We have one winger. Lloyd Dyer.

    All he can do is run fast (although fair play good goal yesterday)


    Crisis doesn't describe our winger situation.

    It seems Saints are far more wary of Leicester, then they are of us.

    We know exactly what your strengths are.

    You've been consistently good all season so we SHOULD know what to expect.

    Think Saints have passed through their blip and will regain their strong home form. 2.0 Connolly and Lallana.

    Puncheon has always had ability. Trouble is he doesn't fit in at Saints because he has an ego the size of Southampton itself. Adkins has never liked him since he took charge. He would be dirt cheap for you because we are looking to get 1 mill for him. He has a lot of pace and trickery.

    Well we're looking for players that'll run at fullbacks and put in good crosses/passes that'll create opportunities for Beckford and Nugent.

    You could the same about Barcelona, ( No i'm not comparing us to them, its just an example) you may know there strengths but you still have to stop them playing.

    Indeed. With the consistent ones, you know what you're going to get. It's the inconsistent ones that need to be wary of - and I think many of us lot are. I could easily see us winning 3-0, I could easily see us losing 2-1. Hate playing inconsistent teams!
