    Who Will Win The League - 2

    I think this is a good time for a recount.
    It's so hard to call this year.

    Leicester - well, improbably they're still there and they've got the best run-in, I think. But do they have the legs for it and will they cope with the pressure of suddenly almost being favourites? And what has last Sunday done to them psychologically?

    Spurs - No, just...no. . They don't have a great run in but they are the form team right now. Being in the cup competitions could harm them though as they don't have that great a squad. They've got a chance but I still reckon they'll have a nosebleed at some point.

    Arsenal - Well, in theory I think we've got the best squad (better than Leicester and Spurs, certainly) and we've got players who have been there and done it at the business end of the season. We're getting our best players back from injury now - Sanchez, Ozil...Welbeck . But you can never really trust us and we have some tough away games. If last Sunday doesn't push us on then nothing will.

    City - Should be favourites but they're a squad of mercenaries and Pep in the summer may put them into holiday mode till he arrives. They've got the ability but maybe not the mentality for this season.


    Sod it, I'm going to say us. Very hard to call though.

    From the midfield back to the defense minus Cech, Spurs may have a better team than us. They definitely are more organized than us from the midfield to defense.

    Incredibly hard to call. Leicester and Spurs just don't seem phased by anything and they're very difficult to beat, which makes them quite dangerous. We have the weight of expectation and pressure on us to win it, our squad is superior but it will come down to how we manage that pressure. We've been wobbling for a while now but hopefully last weekend has breathed new life into our challenge. City seem to be too inconsistent to win it but with Aguero bailing them out I'm sure they'll remain in touch, after all their 2 recent title wins were built on late surges of form.

    In short; fuck knows. If we finish below Leicester or Spurs though, what an embarrassment that would be.

    Honestly we have no business making comments like this, especially regarding Spurs.

    Other than 1 more win than them, they've been better. So far, they've scored more goals, been the stingiest defense in the league.

    Poch addressed their major issue, which was their defense. Ive never seen a Spurs team this disciplined from the midfield to the defense.

    This aint the same ole Spurs.
