But they are capable of performing consistantly as are we and thats all that I am arguing.
Okay...

Because out of the 9 left, I imagine we will lose at least 2. Chelsea away, Liverpool away. Stoke away el be tough. So Leicester not only have to lose the 2 to make up the difference now, but the probable points we will lose from now till the end of the season. Hence 4-5 games. Can't guess draws or defeats. Both bad. Of course if we win 9 out of 9 then we may be ok....
It's a mirakuru...
Was so gutted yesterday, have been flat ever since.
In terms of the title race, anything less than 6 points from the next two will most definitely end any slender hopes we have left.
I'm just thinking top four now and will be delighted if we can secure that top four finish, preferably third/higher. What a season its been and we have to be excited with our long term prospects, I genuinely believe we'll compete in and around the top for years to come now.
We need to remember Poch is rebuilding the Club with his style/identity and the fact that its clearly started transforming is a huge deal IMO.
Disappointing week all in all but we have to look at the wider picture. Win the next two and I think we're in a fantastic position to finish the season strongly.
The only worry I have now is fatigue, just hope we can manage the schedule.
To be fair in their last three they have ground out wins against Norwich and Watford both teams in their worst run of form of the season and only managed a draw against West Brom, three games they would have surely counted on winning quite comfortably.Because they're 5 points up on us & grinding out consistent wins where's we've hit a spot of bother
They are also much poorer teams so evens itself out. Leicester are better than every single team they play until the end of the season

Will the pressure get to Leicester? One defeat and all of a sudden it might. I don't think it's crazy to think they will slip up and maybe lose 2 games back to back. There are certainly more twists and turns in the Title race. We need to keep our heads up and keep fighting to the end, Afterall that is the mentality Pochettino has built at the club.
I would see it that way. We have to win get around 23 of 27 points available. Huge askIf we take Leicester's form over the season it means they wil roughly win 5, draw 3 and lose 1 of their remaining 9 games. That's 9 dropped points, we only have to make up 5 on that form (as if we do we are almost guaranteed to finish above on GD considering we are already ahead)
That means we have 4 dropped points available (7 wins, 2 draws, 0 losses) if Leicester remain on their season-long form, just incredibly unlikely for us to win from that. Any upturn in form for Leicester and it is party over, any downswing and we have a small chance.
Might be twists and turna left but newcastle wont be one for Leicester
, they are dog shit, even worse away which makes it even more painful that they beat us at home when they literally have not turned up before or after
I hope Leicester also think they have the easiest run in.. Do us good.. And prick Vardy does look complacent I guess?
So come on 1, 2, 3, let's continue to say Leicester has the fucking easiest run in....
Oaky, I'll play along - I'll say they have the easiest run-in.
Just so long as I can still think it is bollocks
p.s. My issue isn't with anyone saying that Leicester's run-in is subjectively a bit easier. It is with folk stating that it is much easier as though it were an objective fact.

I dont have a problem with this opinion except for how can Leicester be a title winning side and we not be? Thats something I cant come to terms with.
