It's on tomorrow morning.aaaandddd I missed motd.
That Harry Kane goal deserved to win any game. Absolute beaut.
A really excellent post. There are two Spursbhoys: 67 was the better year.Dealing with pressure and title winning experience is an interesting point of discussion for the run in.
On the surface Arsenal should have advantage in both but how many league winners do they have? They should be able to handle the pressure of getting into the top four as nearly every one of their players has accomplished it. But winning it?
We don't have EPL winners and our kids are too inexperienced to say how they handle pressure. We will only know after this season.
So what of Leicester? A core of players who have won a league title together albeit the Championship. Are they under any more pressure now than when they were bottom of the league last year? Fighting for your future versus fighting for the title. Which one provides more real pressure?
I still think Man City will have some say in the title because they have the experience of coming from behind. Twice.
The real pressure is on Arsenal. Top four for us would be a great achievement. Finishing above Arsenal would be a massive bonus. Arsene Wenger and Arsenal would come in for serious criticism if Leicester and Spurs finish above them and one wins the league.
We can still win it of course but I think Leicester are playing with the attitude of a team without a care in the world.
It is going to be a fun run in. Never wracking for sure but better than fighting for a Europa Cup spot.
I think the title is gone now with Leicester 5 points clear it's theirs if they want it. I do think City could make a late run though. We just have to hold on to top 4.Feels like a loss to be honest. I was very confident we'd smash them to bits before the game. When we were 2-1 up you have to see that game out. Sadly I think the players took their eye off the ball and thought the job was done. We were unlucky with their 2nd goal although Hugo should have done better and their keeper had his customary game of his life but we should have put that to bed.
Arsenal have west brom and everton in their next 2 games so not easy while we simply have to beat villa and bouremouth. Anything less than 6 points from those two and the title is completely gone
There are 9 games left... How is it gone?!I think the title is gone now with Leicester 5 points clear it's theirs if they want it. I do think City could make a late run though. We just have to hold on to top 4.
I thought the ref was good today also.Ok back from the game and surprisingly sanguine about the result.
First thing we got reminded is that Arsenal are a good side, not quite as good as us but they earned their draw painful as that is to say, I thought we had it at one point but in the end I'll settle for the draw.
Harry Kane's goal was at the other end but looked fantastic from where I was, can't wait to see it again.
I am also going big on the referee, Michael Oliver was first class today, unusual for me but I am serious, he let so much physical but not dirty stuff go and kept the game moving, deserves a big well done in my opinion
As I said Leicester are 5 points clear and it's theirs to lose. Everybody keeps waiting for them to have a bad run and they don't.There are 9 games left... How is it gone?!

They don't need to go on a bad run, they literally only need to have 1 draw and 1 lossAs I said Leicester are 5 points clear and it's theirs to lose. Everybody keeps waiting for them to have a bad run and they don't.
On hindsight, Lamela should really stay on the field.. Even at the possibility that he could be off for a second yellow, at least we were still 10vs10.. But if he stays, I really don't think we would concede the 2nd but possibly scored a third as he is always one of the quickest and most intelligent in springing a counter.. It is really not a risk to play him till the end IMO when we were leading 2-1..
Sighz, an opportunity wasted...
Assuming we win every game?They don't need to go on a bad run, they literally only need to have 1 draw and 1 loss

But you are assuming that we and everybody else will win their games but they aren't at the moment and Leicester are. So 5 points clear and 9 games to go they must be red hot to win the title.They don't need to go on a bad run, they literally only need to have 1 draw and 1 loss
