Still think Leicester are fine. That was the last game against the current top 4 they had.
They have a really good run of lower table teams now.
They'll be fine.

This will see what they are made of. Arsenal are just as capable of losing their next league game 3-0.
We aren't in the Premier League.
Of course, that was a poor attempt to suggest I support Leicester, whereas like most of the population of the country I just really want them to win the Premier League, as it would be arguably be the greatest achievement in league football in this country, beating the billionaire teams and showing that underdogs can still do something in the modern game.
(What is this 'Premiership'?)
Ah my bad! Just got confused when i realised we didn't hear from you during our team's game yesterday but you're here in full force when Leicester play.
apologies! Easy mistake to make

Probably because I was in Blackburn. At the game.
I usually don't post on our matchday thread because, surprisingly, I usually go to our games.
Best team won. Leicester didn't really offer anything in attack and hardly troubled Arsenal.
That said, Arsenal were very lucky to escape with the win. A barrel full of good chances created but terrible finishing nearly cost them. Could have been a much more comfortable victory wrapped up far earlier.

In the sense that it's best to have 11 players yes.
That advantage might also have enabled them to play the best football.
But as for "best team" and all that means?
It's many a year since any Arsenal side were half the "team" that Leicester have been this season. Leicester play has been the epitome of teamwork and by far the best in the league.
If not for the last 30 sec's this game would only have further confirmed this. It would also have demonstrated Arsenal's seemingly unsolvable tendency to fail when under pressure.
They were very lucky.
