Sylvain Ebanks-Blake has just scored, 1-0 Wolves. Both teams look quite pedestrian and midtable fodder unless they greatly improve.

I'm starting to feel a bit of a snob, watching other matches and other teams thinking, "Christ, they're nowhere NEAR as good as we are".

I thought that watching Norwich v West Ham yesterday as well if Im being honest. Tragically low quality game.

Yes that is the same West Ham that put 6 past us not that long ago

Completely 50/50 football, lump it forward and play from there. But they're better teams than we are, because they're in the Premier League. Or so I'm told.

Wolves now 2-0 up, both from set pieces and Leicester looking pretty pony in every department.

Considering the amount of money Leicester have at their disposal they appear to have a very average side. Nugent up front.

I would expect more if i was a Foxes fan.

I would agree, but for the fact he won't get involved in the Championship again. It's too competitive, too many teams with a genuine chance to win the league. On this showing, Leicester aren't one of them.

With respect to Harry, he won't want to risk his reputation by taking on a Championship job. He'll wait for Southampton or QPR to panic. Or Newcastle maybe....

Or so your told? They are better than us, they proved it. While the style they play is not as enjoyable to watch as ours, we wouldn't be able to play so well against the players in the premier league.

Yes, so I am told. I think we're a better team than Norwich, certainly. I'm talking about the players we have and I'm talking about the way we play the game. We have players in our team who will grace the Premier League, comfortably. Kuszczak, Bruno and Bridge are undisputably Premier League standard players. Bridcutt and Hammond are arguably Premier League standard players and Andrew Crofts played a lot of football for Norwich there last season. And then we have Vicente and Lopez who have played at a better standard than our Premier League, and not just played but flourished and been important players. Maybe our squad lacks the Premier League depth of current Premier League teams but I've got to say, I would much rather have our squad in the Premier League than Southampton, Norwich and Wigan. It's all irrelevant, however, because it's all theory.

Next season we'll do our talking in the Premier League.

Wow, delusions of grandeur. Kuszack is a Championship/low end prem at best gk. Can't comment on Bruno, but Bridge is no longer cut out for the prem unfortunately. Hammond is no where near a prem player, hence why he's on loan to you. He's behind Schneiderlin, Cork, Davis and JWP at Southampton. Can't comment on Bridcutt, although from what i've seen looks like a good championship player, not prem. How many games will Vicente play? not many again I imagine.. Ramirez>>>Vicente.

The fact you would rather have your squad over any of those three is ridiculous.

Could be worse - we could have that clown Clyne as fullback :jester:

Bridcutt played in our team that beat Sunderland and Newcastle last season and more recently beat a full strength Chelsea team 3-1.

Kuszczak or Davis. Hmmmm let me think...

Davis is a much better shot stopper, but the rest of his game is weak. Kuszack isn't exactly much better and has looked pretty average when i've seen him previously. I would rather have neither and expect us to sign a new keeper in the Jan window.
