Default Leicester City could do it

Their fixtures are pretty good... especially the next 7 games.

West Brom - H
Watford A
Newcastle H
Palace A
Southampton H
Sunderland A
West Ham H
United A
Everton H
Chelsea A

Hope we don't have to beat them for top 4 and give City the title

this is a very timely and unusual post, silv.

I can see leicester losing every game on that list.

They have the Europa League to contend with. Leicester have the easier run and less games than either City, Arsenal or Tottenham

I think it is very unlikely leicester will win it. however, it is wide open. we could even win it. also unlikely, but every team in the top 6 is an absolute £#%&! up.

Hope they do win it, would be great to see none of the mega money teams win.

leicester could do it, but the biggest shocker is that if they don't then the most likely team to stop them is spurs...

yep. some real tough ones there indeed. especially us

Leicester's run has teams they should be and have been beating. West ham at home is a bonus. No City either. Would be great to see that ex manager of theirs die inside if Leicester won... however Jamie Vardy

Still think City will win it, they'll inevitably go on a run when they can be bothered to with Aguero, Silva, Yaya, Sterling, De Bruyne (if he's not dead?) & Kompany back it's not beyond them to go unbeaten til the end of the season & win most. Experience of the run in as well can't be underestimated.

It will fall to pieces for them in a short period, they haven't had a real slump all season but when it comes I don't think they'll deal with it well.

they'll drop points in each of the last four games in that seven game run.

Leicester won't win it .
On paper their fixtures look ok but they will drop ' unexpected ' points .
They'll probably finish 3rd / 4th

From a selfish point of view I want Leicester to do it.

If Spurs win it they could be a real force over the next few years. Levy will splash some cash and they will get some quality players in. London based club, new stadium etc.

Leicester will probably finish bottom half next season

Of course Leicester can win it. They haven't got this far with smoke and mirrors. Mahrez is a really good player, Vardy's pace is a major asset to playing on the counter, Huth is good at hoofing clear, Kante tackles everything, and Wes Morgan and Marc Albrighton are guys who play for them I think.

Still don't believe Leicester will do it, but then again none of the challengers are at all convincing, Spurs choking has long been a footballing inevitability, if Kane or Eriksen pick up an injury they could really struggle for goals, won a lot of games by the odd goal, that does suggest an increased mental fortitude but still uncertain how they will react to the pressure.

It would be anti climatic if City or Arsenal vultured it, that Arsenal team yesterday were disgraceful.
