Where will Leicester city finish?

[dontcallme]

Outside top 6 for me.

I'm full of admiration for them and they are playing with a great mixture of skill and passion.

But they lack squad depth and teams will start to line up differently against them and I don't think they have the variation to deal with that.

They play Chelsea at home tonight. Are they able to win this?

 

[Doctor Dinkey]

They have a great chance of top 4. I think they could well finish ahead of us and Liverpool.

So far Leicester have been good at beating the smaller teams, so yes.

3rd or 4th

everyone else dropping points

 

[Gassin's finest]

They're only gonna go and win the fackin' thing aren't they?

I would love Leicester to go and win the league, or even qualify for the Champions League - although if we don't manage to as well it would be bittersweet & feel like a massive missed opportunity.

I personally don't think they'll be able to keep this form up, but if they manage to come out the other side of these next few fixtures with a few points and manage to keep Vardy and Mahrez fit for the season who knows how high they can finish?

7th/8th for me, and that's still unbelievable for them, and its not meant as patronizing.

Think they'll draw with Chelsea tonight.

I can see it depending totally on injuries, if they get a few in the coming months then they could start to slip, especially to their front players. I do kind of want to see them succeed though, love what they are doing right now

They haven't yet been taken seriously enough by teams to sit back and defend deep against them.

As soon as lower-half teams start doing that, they'll struggle imo, just like the other top clubs. They've got the advantage of being an excellent counter attacking team, but nobody just sits back against them, which is the only reason they're 1st imo.

 

[Geyzer Soze]

I expect tonight to be the start of their slide & Chelsea's ascendence

We could use Chejsea winning sadly

 

[tototoner]

Only Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund &; Paris Saint-Germain have scored more goals than Leicester in Europe's top 5 leagues

 

[Nynorsk]

Apart from Arse and City, I wouldn't bet on any other team to finish above them. They'll finish 3rd.

Loving the fact they play 442 and entertaining football. From what I've seen this season them and Bournemouth (also 442 most of the time) have been playing the most attractive football in the league.

A couple of injuries may scupper them but right now you have to say top four is looking a possibility simply because ourselves and Liverpool have some ground to make up....

I think they just lost vardy & huth for a game after tonight, be interesting to see how they cope.
From a neutral perspective I'd love them to win it.
Christmas fixtures will be interesting which makes a refreshing change, they actually remind me of us a few seasons ago.

Where'd ya see that? Big blow if it's true.

Vardy picked up a 5th yellow for tackling Costa and I'm sure huth got one for pulling him back as well

Ah, missed the 'a game' part. Just skimmed your post and thought they were injured.

Need them to batter Everton, batter Liverpool and draw with City and then let us spank them twice in January. That'd do me.

Every chance of winning the league, other top clubs have terrible consistency issues, and they seem to be able to keep grinding out the results. We have been saying they will drop away every time the next big test comes along. Hope they do a real inspiration to what can be done without spending billions.

Have always thought 4-4-2 is the most attractive football to watch .

Don't like this one upfront lark .
