Our Next 6 Games

It really is Leicester's to lose really. One game a week and a set of fixtures that they would hand pick if they could.

We need to win at Anfield. a 12 point gap would be too much if Leicester beat West Brom which they should.

I disagree about Leicester's games. I fancied them to lose to West Brom, and I can't see them beating Sunderland.

Leicester love playing teams who push up high and leave space in behind (like us). Teams are still underestimating them and coming out and attacking them, and they are lethal on the break.

Playing against teams nearee the bottom who are wise to them won't suit them at all. Teams parking the bus renders the likes of Vardy completely redundant as if he's not got space to run in to, he's not got much else to offer.

I expect Leicester to fall away now. If we win at Klanfield it's a two horse race with us and Spurs for me. If we can catch them by 5 games left I think we'll win it.

It's true. Leicester are the complete counter attacking team. Imposing central defence, midfield that runs all day, and pacy centre forwards.

They average 43% possession. We average 57%. It's night and day here. Their football is unsustainable, but they've had a healthy dose of late winners and avoiding injuries. Can't begrudge them that.
 
Leicester won't win it so the gap to them doesn't worry me.

Spurs are the favourites and rightly so but how they play tomorrow will be instructive. A chance to go top with only 10 games left might inspire them or it might intimidate them.

If we match or better their result tomorrow we're still very much in the hunt. If we win and they don't we'll be favourites with the bookies again.
 
Beat the dippers and I'm confident that we will go on an unbeaten run and win the league. C.T.I.D !
 
I believe we are about to shift from 5th to 6th gear and start brushing teams aside. I wouldn't be surprised if we got 16 points from those next 6 games, with a draw on the road somewhere along the way.
 
It would be HUGE for us to win tonight but I still think we're in it with a draw. We never play well at Anfield so I believe this is our toughest game left, just ahead of Arse and Chelski.

The five after this are all very winnable, 3 points tonight and I really like our chances.

It isn't completely out of the question that we might have caught Spurs by Saturday tea time.
 
I have a feeling ..... Ooh ooh that tonight's gonna be a big night ........

Boys look hungry and focused to me.
 
The tough games are obvioulsly tonight and Utd. 15-16 points from these games is a minimum for the league. I think we can do it

Liverpool
Villa
Norwich
UTD
Bournemouth
WBA
