Phenomenal run of goalscoring. Fully deserves every plaudit. (He's still a cnut though )

Unlike us when they get the ball they commit defenders, not laying it off all the time, making their pace count.

Leicester have the confidence of lions not foxes... Even danny f'n drinkwater is taking on the likes of Mata, Carrick, Smalling! Someone get what they're drinking up there and give it to our midfield.

Everyone is going to think I'm mental.
We have a very similar player in our ranks, he just doesn't play at the moment and when he does we don't get it forward quick enough.

Was quietly hoping he would get record and to do so against the shit is even better.
He really is the boy that done well.

Quiz question, who's scored more goals . . . a) All Stoke City players in all matches this season, or b) Jamie Vardy on his own in the last 11 games? Answers on a postcard.
Well done to Jamie Vardy, the archetypal rags to riches story.

Nothing to worry about here when Man United show up in a few weeks time.
They look piss poor.

Someone get what they're drinking up there and give it to our midfield. It's great (although very annoying as a local). High tempo, direct, mixed with some lovely skill from Mahrez and Okazaki. Kante hardly ever loses possession either. Just like when you're at the bottom nothing seems to go for you, when you're playing with confidence, things seem to drop for you; I guess that's what they mean by 'making your own luck'. Some of their fans are freaking deluded though and are quite insufferable at the moment

Even huth is running about on defense like old, I wouldn't underestimate their efforts. Most certainly not. They've been excellent all season and did really well to get a point at our place. Seen Man Utd several times this season and always been the same. Amazed they're as high up as they are. Arguably worse than last season having spent more.

The piece on Soccer Saturday today was inspirational for any kids watching
Nearly turned down signing for the team that made him out of loyalty to the pubesque team he was playing for

I spent years being jealous of Leicester when they were having good cup runs and playing in Europe. Then they got shit and I bet there fans spent a few years wishing they were Stoke. Now ........

It's amusing to see United confused but they give 100% every match and seem as if they aren't tired it is something to behold. A great feat for their club.

I Didn't notice Huth in the back-slapping huddle, I assume he doesn't get carried carried away by trivial girly things like goals, he knows that the only thing that matters is clean sheets.
So this week is the week that Jimmy Dunne becomes famous I guess?

Unfortunately you can't seem to give any of their fans any sort of critique about their play; apparently I'm just jealous and bitter. So I don't bother engaging any more but will just gently point out their weaknesses when they, inevitably, do hit a tricky patch of form.

Correct, think about it, they ain't too dissimilar Err, not really I think Diouf is an upgrade on SJW, Certainly quicker, and not afraid to chase lost causes, and will get on the end of enough chances to get a reasonable goal return, given the chance. But Vardy is a cut above IMHO. I'm pretty sure that Leicester fans have the same certainty of a goal when Vardy is bearing down on the keeper 1 on 1, that I've not had since the days of Mike Sheron. Certainly when Diouf (And I'm not knocking him), is in a 1 on 1 situation, I'm hopeful, and expectant, but never 100% sure. With Sheron, I was confident, and bizarrely almost relaxed.

Remember in the summer when I was ridiculed for suggesting that given his form he should be ahead of Rooney in the England pecking order...?
