Xela Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I'm pleased for them. Hope they can stay there, or at least in the top 4 by the end of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arj Guy Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) No chance of them finishing in the top 6. It just won't happen. Last year Southampton were the suprise package and this time it is Leicester. They have some tough games coming up and will do well to finish in the top 8 Edited November 23, 2015 by Arj Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I think you are right, Shame, as it would be a big 2 fingers up to the Sky Sports darlings if an unfashionable team did that well Stunning run though Leicester's incredible start to the season continued on Saturday as they beat Newcastle to move top of the Premier League table. The Foxes were bottom of the table in April, but seven months on, led by the goals of prolific striker Jamie Vardy, they have lost only one of their first 13 league matches. Claudio Ranieri's in-form team host second-placed Manchester United next weekend, with the chance to extend their unlikely lead at the top. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34896490 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilS Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Leicester are doing great things at the moment and fair play to them, but we all know from past experience that this will not last. If Leicester do ever look like threatening the Champions League monopoly it will mean they have good players, which in turn means the usual CL teams will use their superior wealth to rip apart the team by snapping up the best players. We have been vivtims of that ourselves numerous times. The question then is, can they rebuild better than we have managed or will they sink back down to a lower level again.

Zatman Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 credit to Leicester they are doing brilliant at the moment but they are a momentum team at the moment for me who are very good on the counter, a heavy loss will crash them down to earth. Jamie Vardy is still a rodent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dAVe80 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 If it wasn't for my mate, who had previously professed no interest in them (but he was born there apparently, so now is the biggest Lesta fan going), I'd wish them well. As it is, my Facebook is clogged up with #EnglandsNumer9, Vardy #chatshitgetbanged, and various other Liecester City shit. Not only does it make em want to puke, it makes me long for them to go out of business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Was disappointed when we let Albrighton go but never thought he could kick on this much. Goes to show how much a club can hold certain players back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only count 4, Albrighton, Young, Delph and Collins, 5 if you include Walker but I don't think he really counts as he was a short term loan. who are the others? Edit: Nevermind, misread your post as top 6, top 8 would obviously include Davis and Barry too. Also Bertrand and Cleverley if you include loans Edited November 28, 2015 by MessiWillSignForVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
