    Best we could have hoped for. 2 points have evaporated for them both, never to be seen again.

    Arguably the biggest opportunity in the clubs history today. Win takes us 5 points clear with 9 to play, if we finish these last 9 games like we did last season then we will be there]

    Unbelievable

    Mahrez has won us a lot more points then lost us. Vardy missed an absolute sitter against Bournemouth where he hit the inside of the post. We didn't deserve to beat Norwich last week but Leo won it at the end. We should have beat Villa but didn't. Thats football

    He who dares wins, and so far, you're the only team to dare to win. Respect <ok>.

    Just watching MOTD. When Dier fouled Mertasacker on a booking, the commentators use of words was interesting. 'Arsenal swarm the referee'....not just against us then

    I really dislike this kind of behaviour which was started off by teams like Manure and Chelsea. It's a shame to see my team do that as they usually don't. I guess when desperation creeps in...

    That should be stamped out. Any thing like saying "that´s a card ref" etc should warrent a club fine/yellow for the players that moan. Football should take a leaf out of Rugby´s book in that respect. But saying that the ref´s do need help, which will come slowly but surly. Only the Captain should ASK for permission to speak to the ref.

    What do Spurs players have to do to get sent off? Danny Simpson got a second yellow for a tug on Giroud's sleeve, while Dier nearly pulls the shirt and shorts off an Arsenal player and gets nothing! Consistency still very much lacking in the refereeing department.

    They really need to use more technology to improve decisions. If cricket can move forward and use it, why can't football?

    Fair enough for conceding it's not good form. For the record that was a second yellow is compared next to Simpson vs you guys and even Coqelin. Yes the second was a yellow but the 'dive', well it's just hard to prove as you don't know what's going through the players mind. Spurs have got lucky twice now with Wimmer and Dier!

    Of the fixtures next week you would fancy all of us to get the win

    It would cross another game off so not the worst thing if we all win

    Still a long way to go, plenty of twisty turneys to come, but glad we've picked up 3 points more than our rivals over the course of the last 2 games.

    My concern, be it a little one, is that Newcastle will be playing for McClowns job against us, then again it was the same with Carver and we smashed them 3-0.

    Arsenal are through to the semi-finals of the FA cup - good, they will have more games and another priority.

    Spurs 3-0 down v BVB, so they may not be getting a couple of extra games.

    ... perhaps not ... but they will still have to go for it in the return ... plus that's a draw and 2 defeats in their last 3 games ... wonder if they are starting to feel a little vulnerable? ... been a bit of a spanking tonight tbf ...

    Dortmund were a different level. They won 3-0 in second gear.
