Under pressure

Will Leicester buckle under the pressure of being league leaders or will they stay the course? Can Tottingham hold their nerve now the media have woken up to the fact that they are the form team and are actually in the top four (yes guys, you missed them as you only had eyes for Leicester)? Will Arsenal finally get over the line?

And what about City? A stuttering season is going to have to seriously and quickly get back on track if the Blues are going to repeat previous success in clawing back another points deficit......

Was the challenge by the Leicester defender in the dying moments of their game against Arsenal resulting in the free kick from which Webeck scored, an indication of the pressure affecting players?

Who will stay the course?
 
Pressure is something you put onto yourself. Leicester has proved the critics wrong and will surely qualify for next seasons Champions League. Whether they win the league is a different matter. Having said that they have a better chance than we currently do.

Arsenal generally 'cock it up' but they are title contenders and have a realistic shout. They will probably finish second or third.

If I had to name a team who will win the league then it has to be either Leicester or Tottenham.
 
Leicester were unlucky to lose a player and have not suffered injuries to their top men, plus they are fresher, this is what happened when Liverpool had no involvement in other things they played like trojans, but when the following season you get those extra games it does start to show the tiredness
 
As for City apart from the flying start we got, nothing has actually gone our way, Robbed by the same referee from the same fixture home and away.
 
Perhaps the pressure is off us now. Foxes were (temporarily?) favourites after beating us, now it will probably be the Spuds that are considered to be in poll position. Spuds, Foxes and Gunners to all lose their next PL fixtures?

 
Not likely KCT. Leicester have Norwich at home, Spurs have Swansea at home. The Goons are away to the rags so could drop points there.

Our next PL fixture is away to Liverpool.
 
Playing at the top level is equivalent to my mind to F1 - margins in that game are measured in hundredths of seconds, in the PL the additional tiredness can just shave the edge off a player's sharpness I guess.....fractions of seconds matter

Sods law that we lose as well...

 
Candlefield has hardly been a happy hunting ground.

What are the odds that twice in the latest three seasons that the team's contesting the final of the League Vup face each other in the league a few days later?
