Good 2nd half deserved something. Win was a bonus.

We contributed greatly to all their goals.Hoillet's cross was legitimate so unfortunate there.But Sky and Jordan's drought almost guaranteed this result.

smithers motm ,defence a joke ,boro played like a REAL TEAM ,and yet we only lost 2-3 and should have had 3-3 but for a useless official so as I can only mark the ref he gets a 1/10 as he part of that team

great game-just could not get the final goal Impressed with the signings that Ramsey/Ferdinand have made It bodes well for 2016-17 Great crowd and the Boro fans contributed to a fantastic Friday night feast of great goals,tackles and saves

Good game but unfortunately our defence, Smithies and perhaps Perch excepted, fell apart. We really missed Clint Hill. It highlights the concern of a lack of a dominant cb and the need to find one for next season and then to find the best partner for him. Change is also desirable in both full back positions. Both have done a decent job recently but were exposed and found wanting here, although in Perch's case the absolute lack of tactical nous in front of him was constantly apparent.

I would be interested, as Clive has suggested to see Perch in the Henry role, for at least a couple of games before the end of the season, as Robinson seems to be ready to play some part at lb.

Also hope to see Washington get a start while his confidence is high, maybe move Hoilett to the right and play CW on the left.

Wanyama was shown up by a good midfielder today Kante,

felt we should've got something out of it really. The key difference was the quality of the final ball: Leicester's was generally decent, ours was generally poor - a recurring theme.
I thought Pelle had a bad game overall, although as I say he didn't receive great service. On the plus side, van Dijk was brilliant. I think he has everything that a great CB needs - really hope we can keep him.

As for the two penalty shouts that Ron was complaining about... for me, the ref probably got both right. The only way Simpson could've avoided it was if he had no arms (it would've hit his body anyway), and the ball hit Huth so quick that he couldn't do anything else. I suspect others on here will disagree! I'd be annoyed if either decision was given against us and, tellingly, there wasn't much appealing from the players.
But I did think that Clasie was fouled for their goal - clear push from Morgan

Absolutely bloody dire! Why is it always us? Whenever there is a choice of which Saints will turn up why is always the clueless, lacklustre one?

Where was the passion, the drive, the energy needed to clinch our European place?

I give up!

Mediocrity is the name of our game. Only Fraser earned any credit today and he alone saved us from humiliation, the rest of the layabouts were already on summer vacation.

Wanyama did an excellent job controlling Mahrez, which, after the initial 15 minute onslaught enabled Saints to take control of the game. If that penalty had been given, we'd have got the draw we deserved.

In my opinion and only slightly biased. Both handballs were penalties , the huth one he was hanging his hand out to stop the ball . The first one ,(after mane took an age to shoot could've chipped the keeper )Simpson seemed to beat the ball down with his elbow . Their goal Jordy was pushed so out of those big decisions we got nothing? ..same old same old , if we had got something from the ref our own confidence would've grown . They, Leicester, were good and quick ,we couldn't get the fall of the ball and when we did they were on us like a flash .
They seemed to get lucky and we never seen to get any luck story of our season .
Vardy needs a good kicking by someone to bring him down a peg or two , got very arrogant like how dare you tackle me ...tw@t.
