If we're not going to really do anything now, I have to say Leicester bottling it and Blues getting relegated would make for a pretty fantastic end to the season.

Especially as we could be pinpointed as the start of it all.

I'm sure Vardy is still on 100k+ per week in the championship, which is crazy.

And some. I think he got put on >100k when Arsenal where sniffing about way back in 2016. He's probably on 200k or more (if they didn't build in a relegation clause).

The best positive to take from the weekend, at least we’ve not lost 3 in a row, like Lesta.

Would love to see them fall into the play-offs and then not go up, they'd be fucked!

Who are his fan boys? Curious.

I said I'm not willing to call him b tech pep cos ain't seen enough to judge. His stats were good(this would have been January time). If you think that's being a fanboy you are everything that's wrong with this forum and the internet in general.

I hope they fall away and don't get promoted too btw

Shame Norwich scored but other than that good set of results. We are bang in the playoff hunt! Come back into form and who knows.

Told you 'Enzo' wasn't all that he's cracked up to be though - if they do go up he won't last 5 mins in the PL. I'm pretty sure their wage bill is higher than a lot of PL clubs.

They are wobbling for sure. I dunno about in prem cos recruitment would be big factor. I dunno what their budget be like

If they fail to go up I imagine may be serious financial troubles? I'm sure I read a report

I do hope they fall out but only if covndont make playoffs. I don't want them to beat us in playoffs.

As for us it looks like 4 teams fighting for 6th

Our next 3 are winnable. If we do go on a run we could be in the playoffs by April.

Massive month for us. 4 games. 3 wins in any combination keeps the season super exciting

Yeah, if they don't go up, I think they'd be in some real trouble financially.

We didn't get into the top 6 until the second from last game last year, plenty of points to play for yet!

The only thing to sour this weekend other than our result is that them cave dwelling racist scruffy bastards are going to stay up - Sausage Rohl is too good for them hope he fucks them off for a bigger job in the summer

Yup

Think next 3 is bog though. We are point of season where a gap from playoffs could be something we don't recover from

5 is doable. Let's aim to be within 3 by end of month

I think I said before that he's similar to the other Pep protégé in Kompany - too inflexible and not pragmatic enough. It's easy to stick to Pep's principles with the quality of players he has at his disposal.

I wouldn’t mind us going for the striker Ugbo they have on loan, certainly knows where the net is.

On Leicester it would be hilarious if they blew this. Their owners might not be so keen to bankroll them if they stay in the Championship for a while

I am sure the way the parachute payments work is that any team who doesn't make it back up in the 1st year gets £40m (or maybe a third) so if one of them fails to go up they will have a decent kitty to start next season with.

If Jamie Vardy is really on £10m/year that won’t go far. Could see their fans turning as well and the overpaid players getting the hump. OK I’ll stop daydreaming now.

It's £44m this year, £36m next and £16m the year after if they don't go up.

Can they still mortgage it or has that been tightened up?

Lineker would never let that happen.
If Leicester go up they will be just like Burnley this season so id enjoy seeing that tbh.Im enjoying this season alot more than i would have been if we were having Luton's season . I fancy Luton Sheff Utd and Burnley will be down by easter pretty much. Lutons only hope is Everton get deducted 10 points or something on top of the current 6!!
