The Leicester City Thread (merged)

We will know more after this weekend. I honestly think if Leicester beat Arsenal they will go on and win it.

Difficult to argue against that opinion.

Right now i still think we will win the league but as you say, they beat Arsenal and it really does look like they will go on to win it.

Fair fucks to them if they do as they will have deserved to do so as well.

Could be the first PL Champions to be relegated the following season, unless they massively invest which would then fall foul of FuFP. Wouldn't want to watch a City team playing like they do

This- I can see an Ipswich moment coming next season - it's alright if you only have one front to fight on but Champs league changes that massively

Maybe they will but there will be still 12 games left our first title as you know we were 8 points behind with 6 games to go and an experience team bottled it.

People have been saying this every week pretty much. I think they have more than proved themselves now and even if they get spanked by Arsenal (which they have already been once this season), their following two fixtures are Norwich and West Brom at home so I don't see the wheels coming off at all.

They are more likely to come unstuck against clubs fighting for their lives who are setup to defend. Their style of constantly playing the ball into the channel won't work as well against a team defending on the edge of their own box for 90 minutes. I fancy them to get a result against Arsenal on Sunday.

I hope they win the league. The rest of us have badly underperformed

Surely you want City to win the league?

Looking at their fixtures after Arsenal theyre all fairly winnable right up to the last 3 which are tough , even that depends on wether you regard the Rags and Chelsea away as tough , which to be fair is debatable

I say this with no malice or mickey taking but please give me some of that stuff you're on. I have spent the last two days kicking cats and being rude to the old and vulnerable :)

We have won it from far worse positions and against bigger foe mate.

So much football still to play and points to be won or lost for all sides.

Fair enough, Blue. Well reasoned. I must admit I cannot be so positive at the moment but then neither am I one of those who think the world is caving in. I am positive about everything City related at the moment apart from what the team is churning out. Win next week and I will feel a lot better about our chances :)
