Villa played into their hands today. Teams will surely start to sit back and make them break teams down. Why would you play a high line against a vardy team? Still, we beat them at theirs and they're done me thinks.

Yep. They will get found out.

Leicester aren't going away. They have no European football to worry about and seemingly suffer no injuries so they'll carry on winning until they meet a top side or lose key players through injury. I really don't see them slipping up against a side not in the top 6. Have to credit Rodgers, this team and their winning run is scarily reminding me of our 2013/14 team that came from nowhere to nearly win the title.

Although at this point in 2013-14, we were only two points off of the top and a point ahead of the eventual champions. 
 

If we beat Watford on Saturday - and I think it will be trickier than it looks given that Pearson will have them up for a fight - Leicester are finished as title contenders if they fail to win at the Etihad.

I think what Rodgers is proving is that he really is great at making good players better. He has inherited basically that whole team and is getting so much out of them. We'll see what happens when the player turnover starts and when he needs to retool his squad but right now you can't say anything bad about him.

They are on the best run in their club's history, they are a little one dimensional to continue that. They may get second though - which would be hilarious.

Any of their first 11 gets injured and I think they really struggle - forget about the 32 year old Vardy, they are a muscle twinge away from having a 36 year old Wes Morgan in the center of their high line!!
