" We are hitting tidy form " that gotta a snicker out of me also .Hitting tidy form Phil? We were ****ing awful last week and play like that Sunday and Leicester will be 3 up by half time
I will say this though , we have a potential with this group of players that could and should hit stride sometime . Not sure it will be in the last few games of the season though ......might though .... Might be next game .
I agree. Play like we did v Chelsea and without Vardy we might upset the title race big time.
However, after the way we rolled over v NU, we could get stuffed.
The better the team the better we play. no vardy is a leveler so a win is certainly not out of the question by any means but i fancy a 2-2 draw game.
We have won 5 out of 6
Why do people keep banging on about Spurs form like its a foregone conclusion. Were in great form ourselves.
Another ref would have gave Vardy the peno and sent Agbonna off as last man. Its fine margins

Im hoping you win the premiership i really do but you will really have to work for it as nobody is going to hand it on a plate for you. many teams over the years have bottled it in the final few games. This is the time when the manager has to do his best work and im sure he will.....
We have "worked for it" all season and then some.... Will be no different for the last 4 games
Plenty of pressure on us, but comments like this are going to pile pressure on Spurs.
I'd rather we weren't expected to win, we are much more at ease with the underdog tag
We need to keep Okazaki out of the game till he tuckers out at 60 minutes or so . Do that and I think we can get something from this game . My worry is we won't . The guy is a life support system for effort . Wish I had a half dozen of him .
Thinking about it again, doesnt playing Schlupp instead make more sense? For two reasons:
1) You can play Mahrez behind Okazaki
2) The extra option - if it doesnt work you can resort to our 'normal' formation with Schlupp playing the same role as Vardy.
Whilst Schlupp isnt as good, we has played as a striker most his life and allows the rest of the team to play to their strengthhs

... he has scored at major tournaments and against better national sides than one Wayne Rooney...
If we win today it gives Spuds zero margin for error. If we win today and they slip up once then we need 1 more win for the league
Today is that big for us

I heard that Kante is running the London marathon this morning, before our match against Swansea this afternoon
Keep the system the same, just bring in Ulloa. He's done well when he's got his chance, and Okazaki will still do plenty of running. We've still won plenty of games when Vardy hasn't scored, it's just a bit of a step into the unknown when he's not on the pitch. The goals will still come though, and I think we've still got to think we can win this. I'd keep Schlupp on the bench as he can come on as either a forward or winger if Ulloa or Okazaki tire, I feel Schlupp has a big part to play for the rest of this season, and into next.
Last season when we played Swansea at home we needed to beat them to lift ourselves off the bottom of the league. The man who stepped up that day to deliver was Leonardo Ulloa
Lets hope for the same today

You know full well we had our flip-flops on for that game, today we will have our footy boots on, you know we always raise our game for the top challenges, we have beaten 3 of the last top 6 teams we have played, and today we will put in a very credible shift..........
