I never said otherwise did I mate? I said I still believe you will do it but you can't blame me for having that glimmer of hope when we are playing so well and you are not playing great and likely to miss your top goal scorer for the next 2 games. Not impossible to think this will affect you.

Who cares Don? Playing teams who stick everyone behind the ball and don't leave any space are harder for us to play. United, Everton and Chelsea are easier games for us than Newcastle and Norwich for example.

You've been five points behind us all season so you're no closer than you have been and winning 3-0 or 4-0 isn't going to change anything. You won six on the bounce and still couldn't catch us because we keep winning too and performances are irrelevant, we can win when not at our best.

We need a max of eight points and that's only if you win every game which I still think is unlikely and two wins and two draws is extremely likely.

So what you are saying is that teams that play shat football are harder to break down.

Irony.

But arro I'm going to stand by my view I have had all season in that I still think we're a better side than you. I know you will say the league don't lie which is true is most cases but the year Liverpool messed up the league with the Gerrard slip.... They were by far the best most attractive team that year but let the title go to city. I think spurs are a better side than Leicester. Our stats prove it as we are the best goal scorers, less conceded, best goal difference, most attempts at goal on target, most possesion of the ball.... Now all this don't matter if you go onto the win the league but I don't think many people will disagree with me here. Spurs are much more attractive to watch than Leicester and are much more exciting. You have done amazing and I think you will just about win the thing but I think spurs are the best side in the league

But for a few inches from a spurs shot and then an unmarked corner spurs would be top.

Fine margins and all that.

Spurs are without doubt better than Leicester and there is not a bookie in the world that would have Leicester as favourites in any meeting.

As for league tables not lying, that is the biggest myth in football, tables lie like feck.

Football is played at both ends Don and in the first half of the season our attacking play was sublime and now we are defensively excellent. You still only have one style of play and when it doesn't work there's no plan B whereas we can mix it up and switch formation mid game and still find ways to win.

I don't really care about how games are won and the best teams win more games because they can win when not at their best and that's us but it's only our attacking play that isn't as good right now, our defensive performances are top draw. There's two ends of the pitch and all eleven players are just as important and it's about the team. We have an excellent team spirit as highlighted by coming back to get a point against West Ham, we never give up!

I also don't think we'll miss Vardy as much as people think, we have plenty of options and plenty of match winners to be able to cope without him, we're not a one man team.

I don't think so Cinci, for example today a quick review of the tables reveals that Wolves are 33 places below us.
