I've given you an incite into all of our players already but you couldn't be bothered to read it! I can't pick a best player because we have many!!

Knocky, Mahrez, Drinkwater and Vardy will be the most exciting.

I think you probably mean insight. Incite is to provoke. Oh, wait a minute..........

Auto correct 👍

Thanks

I am trying to get as many Leicester players into my fantasy football team, so this provides me with some useful incite

And you're the one that provoked by suggesting I should come back in five years because you know so much more about football having seen WBA in the Prem for that period! Idiot!

This Drinkwater chap sounds particularly good.

Well if it's for that then I'd go for Albrighton. He'll start and he'll get plenty of assists with the amount of crosses hell get into the box. Nuge will score penalties and most likely get a few assists too, 20 goals and 12 assists last season. Drinkwater 82% of 2000+ passes completed.

He's class. Should be playing for United not us 👍

There you go again, insulting. Charmless person!

That is an exceptional statistic. I am surprised United let him go with those kind of numbers.

What do you reckon for Nugent? I always thought he should have been given more of a chance for England. Clinical finisher in the lower divisions. Reminds of Steve Bull.

I'm charming to those that deserve it, I feel nothing but disdain for you so I wouldn't waste my charm on you 👍

Nugent is a quality footballer. He scored 20 and had 12 assists. He's very technically gifted and a lot of his goals are passed into the net. He rarely scores poor goals but scored a lot of penalties last season which still need to be scored. He scored a fantastic volley from the edge of the box last night from a ball that funnily enough Drinky dinked over the top but he was just offside.

I'll just have to take your word for it that you can be charming. It hasn't really come through in your posts.

Not only that his average passes were 18m so not lots of little passes around sideways and backwards. He always looks forward or wide if possible. He created 62 chances last season too.

I'm fine unless antagonised and there's been plenty of that 😉

I'll have a civil conversation with anyone but you changed that with your comment about coming back in five years because my opinion clearly wasn't valid because we've been out of the Prem for 10 years. I've not forgotten what it's like to be a professional footballer and I know genuine talent when I see it! I've not said this about any team I've played with or watched before this one but this team is different, it's special without a doubt and next season we will surprise a lot of people!

Not only that his average passes were 18m so not lots of little passes around sideways and backwards. He always looks forward or wide if possible. He created 62 chances last season too.

I am blown away by all these facts and stats. I think Leicester are going to surprise lots of teams this season.

I am a little concerned about the defence though. Do you have any similarly jaw-dropping figures on your back-line?

OK, mate. You're right in everything you say. Unfortunately, the conversation is a little one-track.

By the looks of that, say your pretty much certain to get top 8. You may even go unbeaten at home all season. After all you did win the championship with ease, and we know what happened to the previous winners

Don't know why we are so exited over our signings now I've heard about yours.

What have you done, Tezz? I'll get my tin hat on ready for the next load of incoming?

One track? This started with a simple question which was do we still think we have paid too much for Ulloa based on £10m for Ideye and I wondered how you felt about signing someone relatively unknown, very unproven and not seen by your manager. Seemed reasonable at the time!

Since then I've been told we'll struggle blah blah blah and I've suggested and been ridiculed for not wanting any of your players because I believe ours will be better because I expect us to finish above you given that I think you'll be relegated!!

If I'm honest our defence concerns me a bit too because we conceded too many from set pieces. Not many from open play mind because we have a lot of pace in the full backs, Moore and Wasi are both quick and Morgan reads the game well but I fear we'll get undone again at set pieces. Although Ulloa will make a difference in the box and we could be re-signing Sol Bamba so I'd be happier then.

I can't think of 8 teams that are better than Leicester now I have the full facts in front of me.

Before this morning I thought Leicester had a squad only capable of survival, but now realise they will be top half.

Thanks for educating me and fellow baggies arro. It's not often you get the chance to be informed of the facts by a former professional footballer. An honour indeed

We'll finish mid-table, no lower than 15th but I think we'll actually be better than that and will be more like 11th or 12th because I really don't think there is very much genuine quality outside the top six, especially now Southampton have lost all their players!

Just sounds very familiar. We are told year in year out we will go down, we'll wait and see. But I don't see that changing. Enjoy the season and hope it goes better than your (kind of a bit) rivals derby
