That's the unfortunate problem Leicester have. If teams no in the Champions League (Chelsea, Man Utd, maybe even Liverpool) come in for one of their 'star players', surely they would give up a season playing Champions League with Leicester to sign for a bigger club?

Forgot about De Jong. Can't see anyone taking him regardless. Regarding Krul, I agree. But he's made of glass and it's time to move on. Darlow is younger and can improve with the right coaching. A year of playing week in, week out can only improve him longer term. That said, similar to De Jong, can't see anyone buying Krul.

With Benitez, a squad of; Darlow, Elliot, Mbabu, Lascelles, Mbemba, Dummett, Colback, Anita, Shelvey, Townsend, Perez, Aarons, Mitrovic, Ayoze and Armstrong alongside some additions in defence, midfield and attack can absolutely piss that league like. I think it will be more difficult than 09/10, but we should easily be in the automatic spots. Realise I'm being hopeful with the likes of Townsend and Perez but if Benitez stays I can see him talking them into giving it until at least January to see where we are. Would actively try and shift; Krul, Sissoko, Coloccini, Janmaat, Wijnaldum, Cisse, Gouffran and Riviere. Obviously Taylor is out of contract too. Even the likes of Colback who I can't stand would probably be decent in the Championship. Absolutely mental but I'm strangely optimistic for the future. Just waiting for Mr Ashley and Miss Charnley to fuck it up.

Very tempted to have a bet on Sunderland to stay up at 6/5. Soften the inevitable blow.

Realise it's while away but can get evens on West Ham to beat Palace. Brilliant price.

Still can't understand him being a winger. Fucking Pardew. Even France play him there now do they not?

I still can't believe we managed to ruin a perfectly good song why try and squeeze in an extra player ffs?

We have to stay up like. We will never have a manager of this quality again, stay up and the summer will be the most optimistic I have been for a long, long time.

Where's Golfmag when you need him?

Can't believe Stoke are evens tonight. Wouldn't usually bet against us, but that's buying money given we've only scored 7 away goals all season. Would need to score at least 2 to win tonight, given we won't get a clean sheet.

Him and Coloccini have always seemed to do well together for some reason. Played very well yesterday. Stay fit please.

Really nice touch that. Fair play to them.

To be fair when we first got promoted, Carroll was unplayable. 11 goals up until December I think. Kane is a class above like, but Carroll was fantastic then.

Confirmed.

We should have just kept Cabella. Started looking a bit brighter in the second half of last season, another pre season with us and a year of adapting. Pretty certain he would have been more effective this season. Pointless signing was Thauvin.

I know they're in a good position, but Boro throwing some serious money at it. £9m+ reported for McCormack. No spring chicken really either is he ?

To be fair, we definitely need a winger. Only width we have is Janmaat.

What's Luke Edwards strike rate like with accuracy of articles?

Needs a new deal. Still on the same deal as when he signed which I imagine would be relatively peanuts compared to the rest of the squad, especially given his first team status. Also would mean if he was to be sold, it would be for an astronomical amount.

Mag on a metro the latest one. They're mental.

mag at work thread on RTG man. Absolutely hilarous. Have a look if you get 5.

Unreal. So happy he's back in Holland squad. Confidence will be right up!

Was brilliant today. Get balls into the box and this lad will score.

Cisse in Lisbon. Was amazing.

Tbf it would have made it 2-2 at the time wouldn't it? Change in momentum etc.
