Because from time to time things do click for Newcastle, and unfortunately for us it did against us. It could be that the players thought that Newcastle were crap. It was at the beginning of the season. I wanted not to lose the last two games and we only lost one. Given that no one expected us to be in this position, I think we're doing pretty well.
Mahrez and Vardy. They've both had the season of their lives and with Chelsea, Man Utd and a few others having such poor form, they've come under the radar. Being Leicester, quite a few clubs probably underestimated them. Most clubs see us as a challenge and try harder. They've also had a big chunk of luck with injuries. There has been lots of factors, but they have just been more consistent than anyone else. That's what it all comes down to in the end.
Some people should read this post over and over again, because it is bang on the money. Out of eight games, we won six, lost one and drew one.
Newcastle were good that day. They've been poor most of the season but at the Lane they played well and we looked tired. Derbies are often crazy games, I thought we'd done it after Kane scored but I was praying for the half time whistle because we'd lost our way and I could see us going in two down.
