'Top 4 incoming!' - Leicester City display leaves Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs fans worried

We're normally able to recite the Premier League's top six off the top of our heads with the same clubs battling for the same positions each season.

Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur almost seem to have a monopoly on the top places in the Premier League but things could be about to change.

That's right, Leicester City look like real contenders to join the party.

While Man City and Liverpool look like running away with a head-to-head title challenge of their own, the other two spots in the top four are very much up for grabs.

Tottenham and Man United have looked like a shell of their former selves so far this term, while Arsenal and Chelsea will no doubt face challenges despite their positive starts to the season.

With so many of the usual suspects in a state of flux, it could leave the door open for Brendan Rodgers' side to make a case for themselves.

Leicester City were in third place going into the Friday night clash with Southampton and the Foxes only strengthened their case with a stunning performance on the South coast.

The 2016 Premier League champions were 5-0 up at half-time against the Saints and made a real statement if intent with a ruthless display.

Of course supporters of the top six clubs couldn't believe what they were watching and couldn't help but admit that the six-horse race may now have welcomed a seventh competitior.

Here's what the supporters had to say on social media.
