I posted last week that I was happy with how they celebrated their win, it was an outpouring of relief, they went ten points ahead and actually thought they'd done it, then we stuffed Utd in style and that would have knocked them.I think today was the turning point for us, Leicester released the tunnel cam on YouTube and all you can see is Leicester after the game blaming the ref.
The reality is, even from an unbiased view point the ref got it spot on today, you could argue the only thing he got wrong was the penalty they were awarded at the end.
The truth is the Leicester players are looking for excuses when in actuality they did that to themselves today, they lost their heads and finally got punished for what they have been doing all season, playing dirty and trying to buy fouls and grapple players like it's rugby.
Their disgust towards the ref was unjustified because he actually got every decision spot on aside from their penalty, if anything they should be thanking him as he saved them a point against a lacklustre West Ham side that didn't even look bothered.
For all the media hype over Leicester the reality is they are a long ball side who rely mainly if not solely on Vardy (who I personally think is a disgraceful human being and I am almost certain he is doping based on his behaviour and his energy levels) and some very dodgy defending that should have been punished long before now.
The pressure is getting to them and I think West Ham found them out today and I believe without Vardy Swansea will get something from that game.
I also believe that the pressure of today will play on their minds and have a knock on effect for the remainder of the season.
I know people say "The table doesn't lie" but I think it does this season and we are a much better team than them, not only in the way we play but also in the way we behave on a football pitch.
It's our time now to take advantage and prove it by winning every remaining game and you know what? I believe we will
so COYFS, let's end this "Fairytale" bollocks once and for all.
By today the pressure had built up and they buckled and a win tomorrow will hit them harder than people might think, it's not dropping from a ten to a five point lead it's falling from having won it to possibly losing it and that is massive.
We must win tomorrow night then they'll have all week to fester, lose to Swansea and they will collapse, beat Swansea we can bring them down again within a day, I bet their training sessions won't be all laughing and joking this week. Mathematically it is in their hands but emotionally it is still very much in ours, every Spurs win now hacks away at their confidence, five absolutely must win games ahead for us, do it and we will be champions.
