    Stan's stalking his prey relentlessly here.

    The kill is coming.

    Needs an Attenborough commentary this....

    Luv is the hyena waiting for the scraps off the carcass.

    They'll get a break soon as I have to go out and get a birthday present for Mrs Stan.

    Luv will need to be patient.

    I think West Ham have done very well this season.I like their manager,and they have some great
    players.As for domlnating Chelsea lets just say its a bit early to say......
    So according to your logic City are most definitely dominating United?<ok>

    Logic says you're both **** but that doesn't really help me very much. I'm going to stick my neck out though and predict that Chelsea will also struggle next season.

    I don't get accused of being particularly logical too often.

    **** club, plastic fans. It's easy to encourage your team to lose when you will be a Leicester fan next year..

    As the male of a species often presents a "gift" to the female, I assume luvgonzo will
    get whatever pieces of armchairblue Mrs Stan cannot be bothered with.

    ... quite a few wobbly bums on our board now, as you might expect ... but some are really licking the fat lady's butt before she's even started warming up ...

    ... we didn't lose on Sunday, despite seemingly conspiring to self implode ... both Vards and Wes made unecessary errors .. but I do think we'd have won that if the ref hadn't sent Vards off ... we looked more dangerous up to that point ... then we were obviously going to be up against it ...

    .. however, if you'd offered us a 5 point lead at the top of EPL with four games to go before the season started, I think we might just have taken it <whistle> ..

    Vards hadn't been scoring prior to the Sunderland game so it's not that he's our sole goalscorer ... indeed during last year's very good ru-in both him and Riyad Mahrez were not guaranteed a starting place ...

    Time to stand up and be counted ... an option from 'left-field' might be to recall Andrej Kramaric from his loan at Hoffenhem, where he has scored four goals in 10 appearances ... he is undoubtedly a talent but just didn't fit into the speedster counter attack approach ... we may have to rethink that now and he might therefore be an option (don't know whether we have a recall tbf) ...

    ... I won't be ruling out further twists ...

    Think he's gone.

    Technically good, and was primed to be a CM playmaker.
    But he hasn't physically toughened up, and he hasn't done enough IMHO to suggest
    he could be another Eriksen (who is similarly lightweight) .

    Don't know mate. What I do know is everyone else supports Leicester more than the Leicester fans.

    Tom Carrol probably won't cut it in the long run at Spurs. To be fair whenever he has played for us, he has done well. Great little player...lacks the kind of aggression that moves a player up to another level. Gylfi is a better player than Carrol if you ask me.

    I don't think they'll extend the ban and all conspiracies will then be null and void.

    If they did extend it then it would put a taint on the season imo, he got sent off maybe correctly, maybe not. Extending the ban would be crazy, the ref had lost it and was creating problems but at the end of the day the draw was about right. Just leave it there they have to play the next game without him if they go on to win or if they lose nobody would point the finger the winners would deserve it. Extend the ban Leicester drop points and people will start slinging mud.

    I imagine as fans you'd still be celebrating like a bunch of nuts but I'm sure you'd rather win it without people pointing at an unjust ban that may have meant Leicester would have won it.

    I think RDBD hit the nail about Carroll. He's talented, no doubt. But he just doesn't have the physical attributes needed to survive in a premiership midfield. He's too easily bullied and outmuscled.

    Tom spent a bit of time with us on loan and with us being a smaller club , who knows if Siggy will start with us next season . And Carrol would be on the free . Like you guys allude to , wish he was leaner and meaner though .
    I will definitely supporting the Foxes on the run in here , but if they don't make it , I could think of worse teams than the Spurs to take it .
