CF2 WINNIE 1,006 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Saturday is huge for Leicester away to City, Sure they will want to win but I think they will go looking for a draw get that and they are in an even better position and have better fixtures than City. Though the old cliché "no easy games" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 2 weeks is huge what benefits Leicester is City still have Arsenal to play on 2nd last day of season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johanhentze 14,306 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 They are doing extremely well... but theyll fall away.. just kidding. It will be interesting to see how they cope as the pressure increases. I hope they win it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Chelsea are fighting for something in either relegation or trying to avoid a Europa league spot, then they might just not try as hard just to fuck Man City or Arsenal Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobham 1,569 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I don't know if Leicester can win it but I really hope they do win it! It would be refreshing to see a team that doesn't have billions to spend on a shitloads of random players win the Prem! Â And they wear blue!

hammer93 15,113 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I posted about December time that they weren't going away any time soon, I still haven't seen any evidence to suggest otherwise. People keep banging on that city or Arsenal will come through in the end which may well be the case, but hats of to Leicester for giving them serious food for thought. I would love them to win it as it would be another boot in the baws to their claim it's the greatest league in the world. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, a team outside the 'top 4' winning the league would be a PR goldmine for the league. Still not sure they'll hold on though. A lot of pressure on the shoulders of the Vardy/Mahrez partnership and Vardy may start getting distracted by Euro 2016, that's just a guess as I don't really know his character that well.

Gaffbear 4,104 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 They have shut everyone up.. Personally i think they'll win it but if not  a CL place would be the very least they deserve.What a breath of fresh air they have been. 4 points from the next 2 games and i feel they'll go on and lift it.Hopefully Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what your saying to an extent but I honestly can't  see any epl representation in the champions league after the quarter final stage,  that for me will tell me the strength of the league. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying it is the greatest league, I don't think that at all, but they'd use Leicester winning it as 'proof' it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they will roll out how competitive the league is if Leicester win it but in truth, if you put a Bayern, Barca or Real in the epl this season I reckon they would be at least 10pts clear of their closet rivals .

toolongawake 1,209 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Would love them to do it, tough next couple of games though! On paper Tottenham have the easiest fixtures left of the top 4 clubs, and they seem to be going pretty well at the moment. Hope it stays this close until the very end.

ianferguson 2,619 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 There's no doubt Leicester can win league with far less games to play than other contenders who are in Europe and also having goalscorers in form . On the subject of goalscorers Aguero imo will be the difference and  if he stays fit it's City for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
plymouthranger 3,932 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 In fairness everyone (myself included), thought ranieri would be a disaster at Leicester, as he'd done fuck all in his last few posts... Â Â how wrong we were! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandyinroyalblue 16,478 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I watched a dvd recently about Nottingham Forest and the transformation of the club from a second division club to a European cup winning team in 5 years and similar to Leicester the year Forest won the league the discussion was always about when the bubble was going to burst,well Forest's bubble didn't burst against a Liverpool side who were two years running European champions so maybe there is hope for Leicester.

SuperLeeMcCulloch 2,350 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Tuesday was a crucial game for them, they go into these next 2 with no pressure I feel because usually the wouldn't be expected to pick up anything, City and Arsenal both need to pick up the win against them plus am sure Spurs play City the weekend of Arsenal v Leicester, shaping up nicely hope Leicester go on and do it.
