I still think we will win the league

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

You're right should have said rithmatic, one of the 4 Rs

glad we agree

I don't mind if we don't but surely we'll get some stick from all of England and then some if we don't

 

[Dax777]

Don't get this drop the players syndrome, we are in my mind top of the league, I seriously don't believe Leicester are a threat, without our captain, with mdm in the back four, with silva not firing, with kdb (11 goals 11 assists) not firing, yaya past it, etc etc, we are currently in four competitions and have Sergio bang at it. The rest will fall into place it's the law of averages, surely. if so many are out of form it must turn.

I wished more people had your common sense. It would make discussions here much better.

I still think we'll come up short. I just don't see the hunger or desire in the players, nor do I have any great faith that the manager is suddenly going to get us to 'click'.

Frustrating, because Arsenal would, almost certainly, wilt if we applied real pressure. I just fear that we'll do the same as last season with Chelsea, and let them sleepwalk to the title, without really testing them.

Goes without saying that I hope the players/manager prove me utterly wrong.

Thr door has been left open for us to have a crack at winning it but I honestly can't see us putting a run together that's any better than the teams around us.

People are still writing off leicester but theyre beating the teams they should be beating. Nobody seems to be talking about spurs either, but they're the team who do look like they could put something together. If they do, they could easily win it given everyone else's failings.

I think you're right, coming back twice from behind on Saturday is a hallmark of a team with no desire, Jesus.
Feel free to question form and injuries but I think you're totally wrong about desire

Perhaps. But then a major part of the reason we fell behind twice - and why we've fallen behind in several other games this season - is because we essentially start every game with a complete lack of urgency and intent. And that can, to my mind, be readily interpreted as a sign of a lack of hunger and desire.

Such things are always utterly subjective, of course. If you look at our players and see a group really fighting to become champions again, fair play. Personally, I don't (at the moment).

I think they're fighting. I just think they should be playing football. It might help.

This Spurs that look like "they could put something together" have exactly the same record over the last 10 games as we have, P10, W5, D3, L2, which is exactly the same as Arsenal. Leicester have 1 point more than all of us.

We are in fact the 4 best teams in the league on form over the last 10 games, Bournemouth and Watford are next best, it just shows how open and even the PL is at the moment, anyone can take points off anyone else.

Leicester, Arsenal, Spurs, Rags all have to play us at home, that makes us favourites imo
