    Was Kante really that essential? Without doubt he was a key part of their success, but to lose one player and to be in a relegation battle seems strange. A team shouldn't crumble so readily.

    Chelsea didn't have him last season. They have had him this season. Nuff said.

    I just find it strange that a team game like Football can be decided on the merits of one player.

    Nah man, perfect example of player power.

    Chelsea wouldn't play for Mourinho. Leicester won't play for Rainieri.

    Sorry to say Paul, but you'll get twatted by 'new and improved' Leicester on Monday night.

    Why wouldn't Leicester play for Rainieri? Besides Kante leaving, what else changed over that summer period?

    Its easy though play for anyone when you're winning. You don't even need a manager when things are going well. It's during the struggles when a manager earns his money. Its just a shame they don't get a chance to show that these days.

    Yeah, managers get tossed aside very quickly.

    I say "sorry" but I forget you're a Leicester man. Who do you want to win?

    If you'd asked me a week ago I'd have said Leicester.

    Great cup final. Did we 'deserve' it? Hard to say. I think Southampton deserved better than what they had, but we have the cup and I'm ecstatic.

    I'l regret celebrating on a school night, with a 9:00am meeting tomorrow, but screw it. Any excuse to party!

    Leicester have little effective cover in midfield now. It's a combination of Kante going and Mahrez/Vardy being totally out of sorts.

    Looking at the league table makes me keep this answer. Absolutely crucial win on the cards.

    Yup.

    Leicester players should be ashamed of themselves.

    Expect Leicester to now go on a four or five game run. :/
