As for top 2, can't call it. Think Leicester are going up, its between us Ipswich and Saints. Should be us but it is us after all 😅
----------------------------------------------------------------------

why are leicester going up, they are starting to struggle.

last five

won 2, drew against bottom of league, spawning against WBA and two defeats

Can't see how you can be so sure about Leicester - of the top four, they're the ones who have been struggling to score. They've recently wobbled and are still not winning convincingly.

Can't be sure about Ipswich ending up in the top two either. Fantastic form to date, to be sure, but can they keep that up for the remaining 65% of the season?We've beaten both of them at theirs.

My only worry is Southampton, who are firing on all four, just like us, and they've managed to do us once already.

Reading the Leicester pages over the last few weeks even their fans aren’t sure they are going up.

I heard it here first and I think it's a good shout. Leicester look the least convincing of the top four at the moment.
Forget playoffs, anything could happen so Leeds for top two is imperative.

Leicester are the only team capable of topping 100 pts.

Whether they do or not remains to be seen.

We are a very, very good team though.

Is Rodon premier league level though? I'm not so sure. He reminds me of a young Cooper. He's our best defender, but I wouldn't want us splashing any more than 20 mil on him. Brighton wanted 40 for White .....

He's better than any of the centre-halves we had during our recent time in the Premiership. Would be terrific to sign him in January.

Bring in another top level centre-half next summer if we go up & we'd be a long way towards staying up.

If we keep chipping away I can definitely see us catching Ipswich. Not so sure about Leicester.

I'd like to see us sign a number 10 in January. If Rutter got injured I think that would be disaster for us. I know he's supposedly playing as a striker but everything goes through him.

Keep going as we are we will end up with 98-99 points i expect us to get better after christmas so the 100pts is possibly still on, its us plus one for automatic just a pity we gave the league 3 games start but averaging 2.25 pts a game since then.

Leicester were a minute away from ending up just 6 points ahead of us on Saturday. Had West Brom not been so gung-ho they would not have lost that game.

Fair play to Leicester though - they took their chance.

No matter my mood any given day re LUFC,
I'd still like to see you & LIW win your bets.

It'll mean we've gone back up.
