At the end of the day, Vardy is playing like a world class striker, whether you like it or not. Scored some screamers, 18 goals to his name in a side sitting comfortably top. He may vanish next season, but if he can replicate his form at the Euro's then all the better for England. Edited by JL85 (06 Feb 2016 7.42pm)

If Leicester win the title it will be like Stoke or us winning it under Pulis. Long ball counter attacking rubbish which I am amazed none of the top teams have got a grip on yet. I'm pretty convinced they'll screw it up, how much more luck have they got to come their way ? "Brighton are talking about how they're coming for us. And it's like, we've been waiting in the Premier League for you for ages." Wilfried Zaha, 2017.

Would love to see it happen for them this year. Hopefully, we'll have a team back to full strength to give 'em a game and take the 3 points on 19 March! Denial is not just a river in Egypt!

I really loathe Leicester and always have, so I really hope they fail. If however they do lift the title the only positive will be that they did it without the prick Pearson. Cynic or realist? It's a fine line!

Vardy having a good season so that means he is now world class, the best striker in the Prem and worth £100 mill.

Edited by JL85 (06 Feb 2016 7.42pm) Add also kane, sterling, Alli, barkley and it could actually be an exciting England team to watch but nope Woy will still insist on building the whole team and tactics around Rooney.

Good news for the game and for clubs like ours if they do win it. Yes, I am an agent of Satan but my duties are largely ceremonial

It's quite extraordinary that a team that was bottom at Christmas 2014 and survived that season were top last Christmas and are now 5 pts clear at the top of the PL.Especially when one considers they have not spent a fortune on new players in pre-season. And when Ranieri was appointed many predicted them for the drop. Edited by Willo (06 Feb 2016 10.02pm)

In terms of Leicester's signings, Ranieri brought in Kante from Caen for £5.6 Mill and he has been terrific for them. Edited by Willo (06 Feb 2016 10.06pm)

Leicester are chancers with a single game plan and a couple of men who happen to be in form. They remind me somewhat of that Wimbledon lot that had a couple of giant-killings in the FA cup, then came up the leagues, won some stuff, then blew up and disappeared without trace. When the wheels come off they with drop like a stone. ============ The Ferret ============

Perhaps the big difference between Leicester and ourselves is that they brought in a proven top class manager in Ranieri and it is he who has driven them onwards and upwards

It's theirs to lose now and if they win it what an amazing achievement it would be. It will be the greatest achievement in modern day football, one which all didn't think could possibly happen. I hope they do it. As for Vardy, he's a bit of a chav but he can catch pigeons and finish, with Mahrez pulling the strings they are formidable. They have been very lucky with injuries though. The ups and downs of Palace have left me older than my years

Pearson must be fuming. If he hadn't acted like such a massive dick, he'd probably still be their and they'd probably still be there or there about. since Christmas last year they've amassed a premier league winning points total.

He has managed some big clubs in Europe, off the top of my head the likes of Monaco,Atletico Madrid, Juventus, Roma, Valencia,Inter Milan,etc etc.I think I am right in saying that at each of his clubs (May be an exception) he has won more games than he has lost, but whilst he has got promotions and won cups, I don't think he has won the league with any of them.But a bad manager doesn't get to manage major clubs in Europe and of course he also managed Chelsea.

I agree, i'm just commenting on the mood at the time of his appointment.
