15 games to go. Looks like a 4 hours race. Leicester, Arsenal, Man City and Spurs in the mix. Looks like an entertaining finish for a neutral (If they even exist). I reckon most in here would like to see Leicester win it out of that lot and with them having no cup commitments they might be worth a fiver at about 9/1. Who do you fancy lads ?

So, a marathon then?

Would obviously like to see Leicester do it but still think it'll be City

Such a pity we couldnt challenge, a very low points total will be needed, hope leicester win yes, kind of nice to see spurs win it even though there a bunch of tory twats.

I was thinking Arsenal but thats a huge loss for them today. I'd be siding with City now but they're not looking great either. Spurs are interesting theyre looking good and steady. I thought Leicester would fall away but theyre still up there so you've got to take them serious now. I still think when it comes down to it the players that have won things before will get the job done so I'll go with City.

Garry_LFC · « **Reply #6 on:** January 24, 2016, 06:53:11 pm »

Leicester's next three are Liverpool home then City and Arsenal both away. They come out of those games still top or within 3 points and they'll be in the mix come May in my opinion.

XabiAlonsosBeard · « **Reply #7 on:** January 24, 2016, 06:54:37 pm »

I've got a feeling for Spurs.

I think they're solid in the key areas. Good goalkeeper, good back four (particularly centrally) and a good striker, who consistently scores.

They haven't yet, but I just feel that Leicester will drop off the pace a bit, although I think they'll get top 4 which, in itself, is a great achievement for them.

Arsenal are Arsenal. Superb on their day. Extremely soft and beatable when it's not their day.

City will be thereabouts. However, they need to keep Aguero fit. I'm not convinced by them defensively either.

I'll go Spurs, City, Arsenal, Leicester......Unless we make a late surge

Johnny B. Goode · « **Reply #8 on:** January 24, 2016, 06:55:34 pm »

I'd put good money on Arsenal (but I won't

). Thought they were really good at Anfield, and even today against Chelsea they showed some very incisive movement inside the box. They are aggressive and very quick, with a top keeper to boot. They look more inspiring than City, who on the other hand look a bit jaded and inconsistent.

I had taken it for granted that Leicester would drop off, but it still hasn't happened. I hope they make top 4 at least, it'd be good for the league.

Anywhichwayicant · « **Reply #11 on:** January 24, 2016, 06:57:32 pm »

I hope Leicester do it, but I think the other City will pull clear and win it by 6/7 points.

CallumLFC · « **Reply #12 on:** January 24, 2016, 07:00:04 pm »

Spurs are certainly challenging for the title. Bounced back well after the Leicester loss. It'll be crazy if they were to end up winning it. Always associated them with being losers.

This team though is very good and resilient. Classy squad they have. Good first team and back-ups too.

Think in the end City should win it. The likes of Aguero, Silva and De Bruyne will show their quality. Though if Aguero were to have another lay-off, then i'll go for Arsenal with Coquelin, Cazorla amd Sanchez all coming back.

Leicester won't win it. I just can't see it happening at all. The other three are the main contenders.

Yeah i think we all feel that way but at least its not Chelsea or Man United.

Adeemo · « **Reply #14 on:** January 24, 2016, 07:01:21 pm »

Pretty confident City will win it with Arsenal 2nd, who knows with both Leicester and Spurs, they're both still likely to stumble quite badly imo.

Spurs just seem to be getting the rub of the green so far this season. Big decisions going for them, no long term injuries to key players, a reliable goal scorer to call on etc...

Aye. Arsenal will no doubt go into their end of season meltdown and I can't help but feel Leicester are a Vardy / Manrez / Kante injury away from a collapse in form. Spurs could be the team to push City all the way.

Sincerely hope Leicester go on and win it, but City surely have the squad depth to see them through and win it.

Spurs luck with injuries will run out and if not they'll simply bottle it because they are not used to the pressure.
Arsenal have already started to bottle it, but they'll be in the mix until the end.
Leicester I don't see as viable contenders (I know it has been said before). They'll slowly drop off a bit and finish third.
City to win it by inertia and being less of bottlers.

Funny one. In normal years it would be say one of arsenal or Dity being the ones I'd want to stop Chelsea or United winning it. Now I hope Leicester do it. Don't want Spurs to, that would be depressing. Feels now or never for Arsenal and Wenger, wouldn't begrudge them winning it if Leicester do fade.

To hell with you'll be pleased with City winning it. You want to see that rat Sterling with a premier league medal? I'd rather Leicester or who I think will win it Arsenal.

DangerScouse · « **Reply #25 on:** January 24, 2016, 09:34:04 pm »

City's poor away record will be their downfall. Alexis back from injury is a huge bonus for Arsenal. They'll just squeak it imo.

Chris~ · « **Reply #26 on:** January 24, 2016, 09:35:39 pm »

City will win it. Home to Arsenal second last game of the season and then away to Swansea. Keep themselves within a couple points and they'll take

Leicester have already dropped off a bit, only 2 wins in six, just the other two have 5 wins from 12 combined. All three haven't been that great recently. Actually looking at it City are the only one out of them and Arsenal beat a top half team (10th place Watford) in the last 6 games as well, that's really quite bad.

Gifted Right Foot · « **Reply #27 on:** January 24, 2016, 09:38:57 pm »

If Aguero stays fit for City they win it.

Sir Psycho Sexy · « **Reply #28 on:** January 24, 2016, 09:43:18 pm »

I hope Leicester win it, but I voted Arsenal, and I'd rather them win it than City. Sanchez back for them now. Him and Ozil can get them by most of the time and Giroud has been alright. Probably isn't that long until Coquelin is back either. Leicester will finish top 4.

Alf · « **Reply #29 on:** January 24, 2016, 09:44:03 pm »

Whoever wins it this season will be the best of a bad bunch. If Spurs keep Harry Kane fit I've got a sneaky feeling they'll win it.

ScottScott · « **Reply #30 on:** January 24, 2016, 09:47:27 pm »

I hope Leicester do it. I really do. They deserve it. Played well, beat everyone (pretty much) and it'd be boss wouldn't it

I think Man City will win it though. Arsenal 2nd and Leicester will be 3rd or 4th which would be amazing in itself. If they don't win it then I hope they finish 3rd and get automatic qualification to the CL. Would be mental seeing them in there

Like others have said it's a massive shame we haven't been involved but we will be soon

Nick110581 · « **Reply #31 on:** January 24, 2016, 09:51:12 pm »

Fancied Spurs for a while despite getting mocked on here.

They win the next two (Norwich and Watford) meaning they can go to City near the top.

Leicester have us, City and Arsenal as next three.

Hope Man City or Arsenal win it, preferably Arsenal.

If Leicester or Spurs win the league everyone at LFC should hang their heads in shame.

I'll be pretty disappointed if anyone else makes top four from this point. Unless it's us obviously. I'd be fine with West Ham pipping someone too I guess.

I'll be disgusted if United do it, I guess is what I'm saying. Was hardly worth posting.

Arsenal to win it.
