    They've rolled you over for 4 points this season. So will you let the Captain, Leader, Racist's last game be a home defeat in the vain hope you can win someone else the title? It'll seem just like the old days when you were nothing with no fans.

    Most likely the next 2 games will finalize Leicester as champions.
    Leicester will not need anything from the last game of the season - but they can rest assured.

    Then - JT may not play due to injury.
    Even if he plays, that may not be his last game.
    Even if that is his last game - he will gleefully help Leicester lift the trophy if it depends on that game.

    If the trophy's there you'd better make sure JT's mum doesn't get near it with the coat with the big pockets.

    Well that would surprise no one , I expect he would don a Leicester shirt too, but wont worry you are right Leicesters match with you will be irrelevant, when they only pick 1 point up from their next two matches and we have picked up 6, we will be top on GD or are you going to suggest that in those circumstances JT will score how ever many OGs are required for Leicester to match that too

    Stan is talking bollocks. Terry, twat that he is, is also a competitive professional. I don't believe his professional pride would allow him to let anybody win deliberately.

    There are only "Ifs" at the moment.

    I get the feeling that Chelsea will be up for the Leicester match because they'll want to prove themselves against the team which has been playing well all season.

    That's "if" we haven't won it by that game.

    Just wondering now whether Vardy will be more cautious on the field.

    Spurs could be holding the trophy on the last day of the season having not spent more than about an hour at the top of the league all season.

    Would be quite a stat. It won't happen, mind you.

    What a ****ing performance!

    I loved the City wins, the Bournemouth ones were also class as were the Villa ones and the Utd one was very satisfying but this result was probably the most superb one we've had all season. The pressure going into it was huge after the weekend's results and Stoke at the Britannia are no mugs, so to go there, win 4-0 (should've been 5 at least, Dele!) and do it in such entertaining fashion was just quality. Even at 85 minutes Kane and Lamela were still chasing their defenders down to try and go for a 5th, I love that.

    Some of our goals were an absolute joy, honestly Dele's first was worthy of being put on PornHub it was that good <laugh>. I didn't even spot Alli's run that Eriksen picked out and I had a birds-eye view of the pitch and then the finish just oozed confidence.

    Again it was another of those brilliant team displays that I've mentioned a number of times this season, it's what makes this side so brilliant to watch, Kane and Alli get the headlines but the likes of Toby, Lamela, Mousa, Dier, Eriksen and the rest have just been a joy to watch.

    It's a damn shame we still sit second, I mean look at this:



    That is so deserving of winning this title, we've by far been the best side to watch and although we're second, we've been the best side in the league without a doubt, a few stupid mistakes early on in the season has typically come back to bite us as Leicester's efficiency has seen them edge it so far. This result however does give us more hope of catching the foxes, at one point over the weekend it was looking like a 10-point gap once they went 1-0 up so for it to be 5 with 12 left to play for is encouraging, even if it is still doubtful.

    Whatever happens though, I couldn't be more proud of this young side. Under this manager, we're going places, brilliant time to be a Yid.

    COYS!

    It's all very well being in front for the whole race but if you stumble at the last hurdle then you're second. Better to save your strength until the end.

    It might not be as much as an hour, if (theres that word again) it can still go either way on the last day then it might be as little as a few seconds! Now wouldn't that be good!

    I would love it to go to the last day. For the spectacle, the emotions, the advertisement for the PL. Even if Chelsea roll over and hand Leicester the trophy so that Captain Adulterer can retire safe in the knowledge that he has done more personally to screw over Spurs than any other player...just the thought of sitting down to Newcastle knowing that the title is on the line. Just wow. Makes my spine tingle. It's something that us younger fans have never even come close to experiencing.

    Amazing performance last night, SOS has summed it up perfectly <ok>

    All of our games recently have been huge in trying to reduce the points deficit on Leicester, but IMO, beating Chelsea in 2 weeks is the most important out of the lot, simply due to how it could be out of our hands by game 38. - Chelsea's season is over, and I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them putting in a halfhearted performance against Leicester on the final day, knowing how it would affect us.
    Prior to that game, we can also expect them to play the best they've played all season against us, too. After Chelsea's poor season by their standards, they'd love to feel that they helped stop us from winning the league. We simply have to beat them.

    Here's hoping that we can go into the final game of the season in charge of our own fate. Hopefully Swansea and United can help us out, especially if Vardy is not present.

    Did you hear Fabregas saying he hopes we don't win the title. I hope Hiddinck drops him against Leicester given he's as good as said he won't try. Many of the players will be playing for their future over the next few games. I think they'll try in all of them.
