If the Leicester players didn't have heads like sheriffs' badges they'd be 3-1 up by now.

 

[Freddeno]

Personally i would bring Herrera on

 

[Freddeno]

Rooney or Rashford has to get subbed

Who cares about United as long as Leicester find a way to win.

Who cares about United as long as Leicester find a way to win.

Probably millions of their fans throughout the world....

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Pfftttt....

Armchair United fans can get stuffed

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Leicester have found a lot of armchair fans this season. Never seen so many Leicester shirts in Hinckley as in recent weeks.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Plucky Leicester with the 8th biggest transfer spend in the PL over the last two years and the owners underwriting a £35m annual loss in the Championship.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Who said anything about plucky?

I want a different name on the trophy and as quickly as possible. Spurs can win it next year.

I made the mistake of mentioning that at work recently. I was lucky to get out alive...

Hardly broke the bank though have they?

This.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I just don't see a huge amount of difference between Bournemouth's 'fairytale' last season, which this forum rightly recognised as a load of hokum, and Leicester's story - when let's be fair, they've done brilliantly but have benefited from a once in a generation season where every single club who would be expected to challenge for the title have completely dropped the ball.

I can't get that heavily behind Leicester when it's mid-range financial doping at the heart of it. Allied to good management of course.

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

I want this won by the Foxes today, so they can party at home next week, stress free!

 

[YoungWolf]

Well those clubs who have dropped the ball finances still dwarf Leicester's massively. Plus I don't think anyone here is pretending they haven't spent a fair bit.

Leicester winning the league is fantastic for football.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I am delighted for Claudio Ranieri, plus Leicester is a proper club unlike the South Coast chancers Eddie Howe runs.

 

[ROVERT47]

I can't believe Van Gaal believes he's gonna still be manager of Man U next season.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

It is a good story, just as it would be if Spurs won it. I've just never quite got the mass cheerleading for Leicester is all, I can't say I especially root for them.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Probably because they have never won it. That would be my take. And their spend is as you say eighth biggest, but they aren't in eighth. They are massively over-performing.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Anyone under the age of 60 wouldn't be able to remember Spurs winning the league...
