Amazing to think they were 2-0 up at The County Ground with about 15 minutes to go and didn't win...
I think about 2009?

Surely it can't be on for Leicester? I bet every neutral in the country is willing them on, and if they get through the next two games (Arsenal and Man City away) there should be absolutely no reason why they can't do it, aside from them choking.
I'd love them to do it. Love it. I think though that the run in will prove too much for them even if they get something from those two games. If they get champions league football it'll still be amazing. |

Leicester flying at the top of the league. Anyone got the game on?
From the back to the front they are one solid team and dynamite on the break. Mahrez is a superb footballer. Vardy too with his pace getting in behind city's shocking back 4. They're making mugs of that overpaid and overpaid for shambles of a team. Hope they win the league.

I've been saying they'll fade sooner or later, I thought today was going to show that they aren't strong enough. it's exactly the opposite. Leicester could have had 5 or 6.

They are going to win that league now, crazy
It's renewed my interest in that league a bit, usually it's as boring as fuck with the same old teams going for the title. Don't rule out Spurs for the title either though, that would be a massive shock in itself

What makes it all the better is that they are a team of misfits generally. Players not wanted where they were previously and benchwarmers a lot of them at clubs now struggling.

Interesting theory that the ridiculous TV money now going to all Premier League clubs is acting as a leveller and enabling the likes of Leicester and Palace to compete. They don't need to sell players like Vardy and Mahrez to the established big clubs to survive at that level any more. Everton didn't need to sell John Stones to Chelsea.
It's certainly making the Premier League more interesting. But sadly, it's also driving even more of a wedge between the top 20 sides and the rest.

Huth couldn't get into the Stoke side, went to Leicester...and they're now top of the league.
Man City's defence has been shaky all season, especially if they are missing Kompany. Otamendi and Mangala are poor...and they've paid nearly £60m for them.
You cannot beat an organised back line. That's what Leicester have.

I'm surprised more Town fans haven't said this. I wasn't there (I was a baby) but I've heard from enough people their fans were shites during the POs. |
