There is no point predicting, anything can still happen like it has all season! Fuck this shit is doing my head in, its all i think about 24/7! Leicester for me are now just trying to get over the line, i would love to see how they react to conceding the first goal in a game, because their gameplan at the moment is based purely on getting the first goal then putting 9 behind the ball with vardy as the outlet, with no vardy next game they will have to change the plan.

LETS GO FOX HUNTING

My only source of optimism regarding Swansea is that, after losing 3-0 to relegation candidates yesterday, they'll hopefully be keen to restore some pride in front of the sky cameras.

Aren't Swansea, a team who have nothing to play for, the exact team Lester may struggle against? Lester will have to take the game to them, otherwise anything other than a win could leave them really looking over their shoulders. They'll find it much harder to adopt their counter attack approach without vardy.
Having nothing to play for also means they have nothing to lose. Meaning they can go into the game without the desire to defend and take a point. That is the problem that a lot of teams have had with Leicester. Set up for a point and defend deep and you nullify a lot of Leicester's long ball counter attacking. But teams just continue to attack and throw players forward.

Very. I think they'll beat at least one of Everton and Chelsea.

Hope I'm wrong though.

Depends what the situation is at that stage. If we are within 3pts with 2 to play, Leicester can't rely on their current tactics they might need to open up and play which makes them vulnerable. Playing the way they do without pressure is a lot easier, it's essential we apply that pressure by winning our games.

Vardy screwed it up for them today, Ranieri looked well peeved at the end. Also media et al slagging off he refs performance. Interesting he was watching out for all of the holding Huth and Morgan do. Again this might our a bit of doubt in their minds knowing they won't necessarily get away with it.

Everton are pathetic, there is no way they will slip up against them.

I have a feeling they will get results at Man Utd and Chelsea, but Swansea could be harder for them than many are thinking without Vardy.

They may well be pathetic but they've only lost two games away from home this season.

Yeah. Historically, everton and chelsea would be hard. But they have both been remarkably shit this season and i am not sure there is one person on chelsea who cares at the moment. They have nothing to play for besides ruining our season.
