But as Mr Ferguson once said, you'd rather have the points than the games in hand. Given Leeds current form, one slip from Ipswich and they're looking over their shoulder. The further we distance ourselves from that, the more likely anyone from probably as low as 12th up to 2nd will be involved in a bit of a promotion dog fight. I'm the eternal pessimist and if you offered me 2nd before the season started, taking into account the uncertainty, the general negative feeling amongst the fan base, the untested manager, the horror show that was the tour of the far East and the performances in pre season, I'd have snapped your hand off Right now, nope, let's enjoy the ride and see where it takes us and just keep hoping we carry this on

I'm sure I read earlier that it's the 1st time in 50 years we've gone 4 home game without conceding a goal and winning all 4 games

That explains this image an old work colleague took on his drone then. I did wonder what was cracking off when I saw it

I sarcastically apologised for making noise at a football match. I once told everyone in SK4 to keep the noise down because a bloke in front of us told us to be a bit quieter 😂

Yeah I don't get why anyone would leave, consistently before the 90 minute mark, leaving any earlier than that is ridiculous. Even leaving then with 5 minutes of injury time just doesn't make sense. Don't get me wrong I have on the odd occasion, but that's when I've got something on that I need to get to. My favourite ever experience of someone leaving early was the Man City league cup game. A bloke behind me was in the phone to someone who had obviously left a few minutes early. We equalised, game went to extra time and all I heard the bloke saying was "what do you mean they won't let you back in?' 😂

I can't get my head around people who don't chant, shout etc but that's each to their own But I genuinely don't understand people who go to the football and expect there to be no noise and get upset when people are shouting, chanting etc

I don't leave early, but I do make my way down the stairs with 30-60 seconds left of injury time, this new thing of putting the clock on the score board is a god send. Just to put that into perspective, I didn't tonight, and that extra 30 seconds added 20 minutes on to my journey home

Sunderland were probably the best side we've played so far, certainly gave the best performance of any opposition side, but the 1-0 scoreline doesn't really tell the whole tale. For all of their huff and puff and the amount of times I've seen written that they "carved us open" Mads made 1 save of note. Their keeper has made 3 very good saves, 2 of which hit the woodwork, Casadei should have done better with his chance and we should have at least 1 stone wall penalty. The ref gave nothing all night for their players trying out for the national rugby side. On another day we've won that game by 2 or 3 and everyone would be feeling a little easier about the result It wasn't pretty at times, Sunderland set up fantastically against us and it was way more nervy than it probably should have been, but a win is a win, 36 points from a possible 39, 8 point cushion now on 2nd place with the pressure on Ipswich to close the gap, pressure that is added to with Leeds got on their heels. Can't grumble too much

I got moaned at tonight from a woman sitting in front of me that I was "giving her ear ache" that about sums up the average Leicester fan 😂

When you're crying you bring on the rain, so stop sighing be happy again

We had 3 players who became world class players that season, 2 who had hardly kicked a ball as a regular starter in the Premier League and 1 who hadn't played in the premier League at all. I get your point, but there's nothing stopping any player suddenly becoming a world beater in any given season. I take the comparisons as a compliment, any "under dog" with even the slightest sniff of doing something special will always be compared to the Great Leicester City side of 15/16, but our title win will always rank above anything that is achieved until someone completely unexpected trumps it, something that is highly unlikely to ever be done. The 'experts' will discuss it in years to come, and anything done by any other team will always rank below what we did. So let them compare, it goes to show what we did was special and will be remembered for a very long time

Enzo to go full Pep at full time and go put an arm around Jobe and tell him what a wonderful player he is........

We're better defensively because we starve the opposition of possession and run them ragged. I saw some stat earlier in the last 30 minutes of our games we've outscored the opposition 15-0. We tire them out because they've all set up, bar Southampton, to sit in against us and chase shadows. In essence we're the best defence in the league because we have the best, and certainly most talented, attack and it scares teams into changing their game before a ball has even been kicked. In our 12 games so far this season I'd guess at an average of 2-3 dangerous attacks against us per game

While I think we can all agree on his up turn in fortunes with us one thing that is still up for debate is this. He is no where near the best defender in this division, he's not even the best "defender" at Leicester. In his role, what he's being asked to do and the way the we are dominating teams he is undoubtedly a very good asset to have. As a defender he's still quite bad. The only reason he's a central defender is because at 15 he was probably a foot taller than anyone else and he was stuck there. His positional sense, his very apparent lack of pace, his ariel ability (for someone so tall) his physical presence are all hugely behind what you actually want from a defender when put in a pressure situation. He looks very good, and credit to him, because there haven't been many pressure situations. He's a very good footballer, that's never really been up for debate, but as a defender it's hard to make a case for him to be playing in a tier higher than we are now, or in a different system. I'm loving seeing him perform, he will end up as some sort of cult hero should he and the rest of the team carry on this rich vein of form, but he will go down in folklore with the likes of Hume, Benjamin, Kisnorbo

Huge difference between managing against complacency and implementing continuous improvement and just focusing on what went wrong and continuously telling them what needs to be improved by telling them so

I caught a glimpse of what looked like should have a penalty for a foul on Vardy, no mention of that on there I suppose?

Most goals scored Least goals conceded 11 wins from 12 - best start in the 2nd tier ever 6 from 6 away from home And you still looks at what needs to be improved? I prey you never make it to management in your line of work, your work force would be massively deflated😂 This isn't the old save and reset on football manager when a game doesn't go the way you want it to. We dominated a side, away from home, who were unbeaten in 5 games. Not every single chance is going to find the back of the net, believe it or not it's the oppositions job to stop that happening. I'm not sure what you can improve on from today's performance
