£2.6m for Knockaert? Would like to see where someone on their board has come up with that figure from.

They say our side costs millions to resemble.

Kasper - £1m

Moore - Youth

Ledger - £500k?

Morgan - £1m

Konch - £2m?

Dyer - About £500k years ago

Drinky - £1m?

Knockaert - ???

King - Youth

Vardy - £1m

Nugent - free

Gathered its more than most starting 11, buts its hardly £8m for Jordan Rhodes etc....

Schmeichel - 1.3m

Moore- Youth

St Ledger - 750K

Morgan 1m rising to 1.8

Konchesky 1.5m

Knockaert - ??

Drinkwater 1m

King - Youth

Dyer - 500K

Nugent - Free

Vardy - 1m rising to 1.7

Thought Lloyd was a free transfer?

Same as, and I doubt Liverpool took much for Konch they wanted him gone pronto

The rest of Dans list looks about right though

Thanks for that it was good to read what they thought.

Just an idea but can't we have a permanent post just for opposition sites postings after we play them ? You know sort of " Do they mean us " thing. I don't have the know how to get them up on here but i'm sure lots do, it would be interesting to have outside views even if we get beat and gives us a more balanced idea of where we are at development wise.

Wow. Just wow. First goal was better than the video suggests. We were right behind it and the swerve in the air was incredible and the angle of the camera means you can't really see it. His first touch to start the run was also class which is cut off. Really not sure which was better!

Its the wages that make our team significantly more expensive than others anyway..

The night was so great that the only negatives came from off the field matters.

Unreserved seating - You can sit where you wish, so why do all the folk who wish to sit down for 90 minutes decide to sit towards the centre of the stand. I respect that at games where a seat number is given you are fully entitled to sit, but why at games where you can sit anywhere do you decide you have the right to tell others to sit down??

Squad size - Although we are doing great at the moment and dominating games, it is well known that the best time to strengthen a squad is when you are picking up results. I am surprised we are yet to take an active roll in the loan window, but another striker would be nice.

The likes of Jack Hobbs or James Chester may become available on the cheap due to bruce preferring his own son and faye.

The main positive is simply the effort of the players. NP has had time to work with the players over the summer, got rid of the ones he doesnt want, and sign the ones he does. Due to the performances of individuals we are now playing like we did at Southampton last season, on a regular basis. Long may it continue, no team will win 23 home games a season, so we need points away.

One of the most convincing performances I've seen in a long time.

Knockaert is class. Make no mistake, he is the difference. He is the one that has transformed us from dominating games without that clinical edge to the team that we now have before us. Pray to whoever that he doesn't get injured or poached in January because at the moment he is the source of everything that is right about us.

To have limited a team that has accumulated a very respectable number of points already to just 3 attempts on goal is outstanding, particularly given the conditions. It isn't easy to defend in swirling wind and driving rain. Too often in the past we wouldn't have displayed the heart, courage and confidence to go out there and impose ourselves on the opposition and come away with that result. A lapse in concentration, coming up short, not showing enough bottle. All of these things would have in times before left us frustrated.

I don't want to get ahead of myself but tonight was very, very promising. Forget the four straight wins, the wonder goals, the second in the league. Best of all is that we looked like a unit. Defending bravely, moving for each other and working hard for the team (take note Mr Beckford, Mr Mills and all those ghosts of Leicester past) and the self-assuredness to play in the manner that we did away from home. From front to back we now have a unit. And it's one that moves in a deadly fashion. One sprinkled with the stardust of Knockaert.

Now please, please, please let us sustain it.

DanLCFC will be all over that second goal.

You'd have killed yourself laughing at my reaction, I jumped around and did the squeakiest girliest cheer you'll ever hear, purely down to a mix of celebration and shock lol

He really is the most FLAIR player I've seen at us, or even in this league, he's pushing Taarabt all the way.

Tonight was an outstanding performance, we absolutely controlled the game where the majority of this league will take nothing, it was like Southampton away all over again only with some of the best goals I've ever seen, absolutely incredible stuff.

Knockaert's the obvious choice for MOTM, but 2nd to 11th is any order, they were on a big par and they worked superbly as a team, I was extremely impressed with what I saw.

Love playing Huddersfield, actually quite like them as a club as well as the fact we always beat them and we always seem to be going through a real purple patch when we play them, it's great stuff.

This, 100%

I was the lad in the green jacket so you'll have probably seen me at some point, I was extremely disappointed with a lot of our end tonight, I'm aware rules are rules but these people who sit towards the back are plain spiteful and ridiculously ignorant - and would also be the first to complain if I was to stand 4 rows up.

But ignoring those, I thought we actually made some superb noise at times tonight. Tonight was a return to what I've missed about football. Think I'm falling back in love.

NP must now be turning the majority of the fans onto his side after 4 in a row!

I have had to eat some humble pie of late!

Long may it continue!

Yeh agree completely with the seating. Although i think everyone should be standing anyway, but i know the prawn sandwich brigade would have a hissy fit....you have been sitting down on the journey, sitting down at the pub. Stand up and get involved in the game! Sure everyone agrees that the away day experience is soo much better when there are 1000+ standing and singing their hearts out.

How was Liam Moore last night at right back? Are we looking more solid with him there than De Laet, whose had a few dubious moments so far at Leicester? I liked the look of Moore at centre half but felt he was caught out at times against Charlton and Wolves and was hoping that he'd be moved to right back. It would be great if he made this position his own.

I'm still amazed that a player of Whitbread's quality can't get in yet but that's just testiment to how good Morgan and SSL are playing right now. Brilliant to see.

I actually missed the first 3 minutes of the first half and from behind the stand it sounded fantastic and we could tell we were pressing them back straight away,

Could only imagine the noise from there when we scored, because it sounded great as we were jogging in.

Just wondering for anyone who went to the last couple of away games, what was our formation ? was it a flat 4-4-2 or is Vardy playing more on the left and Knocky behind the striker in a more 4-2-3-1 system ?

I think the best way to describe it is fluid :D Knocky has a free role, we defend as a unit and attack like the Zulus at Rourkes Drift.
