View From The Opposition - Leicester City Wednesday, 14th Oct 2015 09:36 What do Leicester City fans feel about their teams chances at St Mary's and the rest of the season. Last season you probably did the greatest of Great Escapes, what are you looking for this season? To be honest as exciting as the Great Escape was I would have been happy with a mid table stay that lasted from game 1 to game 38 for the 2015/16 season. We continued where we left off last season. We made a few signings but the team that started this season, was almost the team that ended last season. Our new manager Ranieri didn't live up to his nickname and tinker. But the main reason was that when Pearson was sacked we held onto the back room staff ensuring some continuity and having staff in the management / coaching team that new the squad and who could do what. Loved Pearson and what he did for the club, but last season he was seriously losing the plot. If he had still been manager this season I would have been happy, but I think Ranieri can take us to the next level. Which player would you 'realistically' have liked to see arrive at Leicester City during the transfer window but didn't? We were linked with every man and his dog even Balotelli. They joys of the transfer window I guess. The one player was not who we could have signed but who we could have kept — Esteban Cambiasso. Think he would have been amazing in the Ranieri style of play. Who is the one player you wish had left the club in the transfer window but didn't? Schwarzer. Bought in as cover for Hamer when Schmeichel was injured. Only signed a two year contract but as came from Chelsea rumours are his contract stated that when Schmeichel was fit he would be our number 2 stopper. Hamer is, for many, a better all round keeper and had done nothing wrong but has now had to go out on loan, Which Leicester players should Southampton be aware of in this game? The obvious two are Vardy & Mahrez, but looking past them Okazaki our Japanese International striker is a real pain and fights for every ball, Which Southampton player/s if any would you like in the Leicester squad? Pelle please. I know we have enough strikers but would love to se him and Vardy together. Have you been surprised by Southampton's start to the season and where will they finish up come next May? You had a slow start but are now turning things around. This may have been due to your early European adventure. Last season you were most peoples second team with where you were in the league after everything that had happened. And finally can you give us a score prediction for this game… Even with the promise of Pizza's with extra toppings City cannot keep a clean sheet, but then we can score goals. 2-1 to Leicester I think.
