    <p>Big wins by Arsenal and Spurs yesterday to close the gap to leaders Leicester to only 2 pts.  Although Man City aren't out the title race it's probably a 3-horse race with 12 games to go.</p>

    <p>City certainly have the capacity to go on a winning run - but appear to be a little too dysfunctional to do it.</p>

      <p>You'd think the players would be out to impress Pep seeing as how he has allegedly been given an open cheque to sign whoever he wants.</p>
      <p> </p>
      <p>But the reverse seems true. Totally unmotivated in the main.</p>

        <p>There will be more twists and turns.  The top 4 teams all have to play eachother (excluding Arsenal and Leicester City), so points will be won and lost, and all play Man Utd.  Games vs Liverpool and Chelsea also lurk for most of them.</p>

                <p>Yes, my mistake.  They have the easiest draw of the top 4 and no other games like FA Cup and Champions League.</p>
                <p> </p>
                <p>Leicester still aren't the bookies favourites though.</p>

                      Love the way Leicester are tearing up the Prem. Plus Spurs are second and have conceded fewest goals in league. I'm not sure that's ever been written before at this stage of the season. Maybe the apocalypse is upon us.

                        This Spurs fan is loving this. My expectations are being massively exceeded, I feel like we're playing with house money. Why can't we win the first title since 1961? It's madness 🙂

                                          <p>It's my Spurs we're talking about Hooroo, we have been a study of mediocrity in the league for the greater part of that 55 years!!  I think there was one year back in the 80s when we were 2nd or 3rd only to lose out.  Apart from a couple of good years with Redknapp we have been varying degrees of poo</p>
