I was thinking this the other day. In Liverpool's nearly season with Suarez and Sturridge scoring tons we totally relied on scoring more than we conceded (shit loads). Spurs seem to have the balance at both ends.

I shall say this only once... Come on you Irons!

When you keeper makes a full length save that then bounces of both posts and out, then I think you know the gods are on your side!

Mmm interesting refereeing- made a tough decision correctly but then bowed to the pressure to give Leicester a very dodgy penalty indeed. sorry Jah, we did our best.

[Jah Lush]

Pity, I had it as 2-1 to the Irons. Damn the fecking referee.

[maxxi]

Be fair Jah - we did manage to throw in a Vardy ban too.

What a silly, blatant dive it was too. Someone needs to have a word.

[Jah Lush]

Terrible dive. He should be really embarrassed about that. I hope he gets a three game ban for being so gobby to the ref afterwards as well.

Spurs gonna draw at Stoke though so Leicester edge nearer

Sign of pressure getting to them. Schmeichel was just as gobby walking off the pitch, effing and blinding knowing the camera was following him. If Spurs can come up with a convincing win tonight, could get very interesting...

On my way up to Stoke for the game.

Chilly week night at the Britannia. Can't wait for this.

Blimey doc - that's very nearly a Vardy!

Ha ha ha and a ha!

Outstanding performance from Spurs tonight. Absolutely superb. Leicester City - were coming for you. COYS!

[Alan Medic]

New game ????'s & maxxi. What's a Vardy though?

[Alan Medic]

If Leicester win two out their remaining four games, Spurs will have to win all four of theirs.It will be close.

[red devil]

Revisiting my earlier predictions, Leicester and Spurs are both 2 points better off than I predicted, so Leicester still on course to win by a point, but the momentum definitely feels like it's with Spurs after last night's great performance. Leicester's game against Swansea is now massive, win it and they should get over the line, a draw or defeat and I reckon it's Spurs' title...

[titch juicy]

Well that was fun. Didn't get home til 3am though.

[titch juicy]

It's not something I like to talk about, but while we're on the subject of Tottenham.

Harry Kane has more league goals this season than Neymar, Messi, Benzema or Aubemayang. And only two behind Suarez.

[titch juicy]

But hey, why just single out the forwards.

This just gets more incredible the more I read it.

In the premier league this season, the following stats are for least fouls conceded by centre-halves.

Alderweireld hasn't conceded a foul in the last 600 PL minutes.

What's even more incredible is how he wasn't nominated for POTY.

Fouls conceded this season

Toby Alderweireld: 9

Laurent Koscielny: 25

Nicolas Otamendi: 26

Wes Morgan: 27

Robert Huth: 31

Chris Smalling: 42

And Swansea's players are already on the beach (even though

they aren't mathematically safe) :( .

So missing Vardy shouldn't matter too much.

Toby's already my Player Of The Year. It's no coincidence that since his arrival at WHL we now have the best defensive record in the Premiership whereas last season we probably had the worst. He's been superb from day one. A Rolls Royce of a defender and the best we've had since Ledley King was fully fit.

For Jah and Titchy...

 

[titch juicy]

Haha! I suspect you're right. But it'd be some story if it happened. Especially if a second match ban for Vardy became a deciding factor.
