The way Leicester are grinding out results you’d think they’d been in this position a dozen times before. Not giving rivals a sniff of hope.

Leicester winning 1-0s shouldn’t raise any eyebrows. During Fergie’s later years we did the same thing. It’s 3 points that matter from here

In all honesty now, the league is won by the most consistent team, if Leicester win it will be somehow deserved. You can’t change that.
