“The message they gave out in this game against Manchester City, it looked like every single player was there with belief”.

AN ALBION fan will be cheering for Leicester for the rest of the football season after backing them to win the Premier League at 5,000-1.
“There is an evolution in their game, they’re more cautious… they play a lot in their final third and they come out very quickly”.
The Foxes travel to face Arsenal on Sunday and go into the weekend five points clear at the top of the table having beaten City and Liverpool in their previous two games.
Less than six years after plying his trade for Stocksbridge Park Steels, and after stops at Halifax and Fleetwood, the 29-year-old is the league’s top scorer thanks to an 18-goal haul.
At the start of January, Arsenal sat atop the Premier League after recording a 1-0 win over Newcastle United. They go to the club, they have no choice.
Former midfielder Robbie Savage has heaped the pressure on Arsene Wenger ahead of Arsenal’s match against Leicester City on Sunday.
But the England forward has just three league goals this season and has found himself on the bench for the last two Premier League games.
Faced with the threat of Jamie Vardy’s searing pace, Wenger may persevere with the centre-back pairing of Laurent Koscielny and Gabriel, rather than recall the ponderous Per Mertesacker. “I don’t think that we have a massive problem on that front”.
“The pressure is on us as well, of course. We are close to continuing to dream with our fans and want to continue to dream – nobody wake us up please”.
Should they go on to lift the Premier League trophy then they would arguably be the most unlikely top-flight champions in English football history, and Morgan believes that it would force the traditionally bigger teams to rethink their strategy.
If I have a full-back on either side who is very quick there is not so much damage done because he can be covered from the right and the left. At the King Power Stadium, Ranieri was under the impression Wenger was referring to all competitions. Why are so many journalists here? It’s a great story so why the pressure?

“I don’t want to think about if we win”, Ranieri said. Form is on Tottenham’s side, though, with four straight wins while Manchester are coming off a confidence-bruising home loss to Leicester. If Spurs can come out on top, not only will they seriously dent City’s title hopes, they’ll have a chance to more firmly insert themselves into the title picture. He forgot but I remember.
