Soton have this game in the bag. They should rest players for Wednesday.

Some confidence for Southampton going into the game against St.Klopp will do just fine.
Dijk off injured, lucky them.
Why ? I want them in the final, would be a huge game. 16 years after a league final against them also.
I don't care who we meet in the final, all I care about is the trophy and facing Southampton increases that chance.
Feck that. I want trophies. We have a better chance vs Soton.
Wow, Norwegians are a boring bunch. Joking eh.
Awful super sunday, Hull and Burnley will get turned over.
Expected line-up. Bellerin has recovered quickly to go on the bench.
Everyone thought Swansea were lambs to the slaughter, so you never know.
Nope they will both get tonked.
Yep weird choices. Guaranteed wins for Arsenal and Chelsea. So one-sided they won't be worth watching at all.
Am I jinxing them right?
Wes Morgan puts through his own net. Offside. Lucky Leicester.
Not only is he not offside but he didn't touch the ball.
Perez has looked good whenever I've seen him but I've yet to see him start a PL game since joining Arsenal. I think Giroud, Alexis, Ozil and Iwobi is a fine attack but I'm curious to see how Lucas instead of Iwobi would work.
Weird decision.
Harsh decision that. No benefit of the doubt given.
He wasn't offside, but the Sky co-commentator keeps mentioning that Morgan didn't try to claim offside, as if that even means anything in the decision making. The man judged to be offside was behind Morgan, so how would he have known anyway?
Burnley have 4 wins in their last 6 with their only loss a 2-1 defeat to Man City in which they caused lots of problems. Not saying they'll get a result at Arsenal but I wouldn't be surprised if they did. They're certainly no walkover though.
Penalty to Southampton. Morgan again. Tadic to take. 3-0.
Looked a bit soft, that penalty decision. Looked like he was already looking to go down before Morgan comes in.
Burnley away is a tough fixture. Home to Burnley is the easiest game of the season (they have only picked up 1 point away this entire season).
Just shows how their expectations have been raised. This is Leicester City on TV now, last season was a one off. Some of them need to realise that.
Shane Long has played brilliantly since coming on, shown a lot of energy and that Cedric, geeeeez hes playing great from what I've seen in the second half.
I said after last season, Leicester should have just cashed in on Vardy, Kante, Schmeichel and Mahrez and used the money (of which there would be a fair bit) to basically build/buy an entire new squad to compete in the top half of the table.
All of those wins were at home. This season they've managed 2 draws and 9 losses from 11 games. One of those 9 losses was against Accrington Stanley too. If they manage to get a goal it'll be a bit of an upset.
If he was offside it would've been the right call because he was the one putting pressure on Morgan to go for the ball. Looked like his shoulder might've been 1cm offside, and in this case giving the benefit of the doubt to the team on the ropes doesn't seem like a big deal.
Christ I wasn't aware of that. Can't believe how shite that team must be to draw to Burnley at home.
Feck sake that 1 away point they got was from us, was it?
Leicester are embarrassingly poor this season. Their defending is as shambolic as the scousers.
Did not realize Burnley were that poor on the road this season. 3 goals scored, 20 conceded, 1 point earned (against us 
)
)They're playing like a Brazilian footballer in team form. 1 sparkling season at the peak of their powers then the fall.
How have Leicester gone so bad? Obviously they massively overachieved last season, but surely they're better than this, even without Kante.
If you mean Burnley, yes.
Just saw Ranieri's post match interview... Kudos to him for his honesty there and actually answering the question. I can't help but to like that guy.
Ha good analogy. Something not right at the club by the looks of things. The players don't seem to give a feck.
After achieving what they did, I imagine it is very hard to emotionally maintain that state of mind in a second season.
Arsenal to win by 3 or 4. Burnley are useless away.
4-0 or 5-0 to Arsenal.
