It’s happening. It’s actually happening.
Everyone was waiting for the wheels to come off. It would definitely happen sooner rather than later. October perhaps. Christmas maybe. February/March time surely.
But no, Leicester City march on with a fearless spirit and wild abandon to their play. In fact keeping the pressure off his charges is perhaps Claudio Ranieri’s greatest achievement.
But now, with only eight games remaining and the Foxes sitting five points clear of their closest rivals, everyone is starting to believe that the impossible is possible.
And fans across the country, of all affiliations, are desperate for the East Midlands club to fulfil their destiny…

Arsenal:
I think I've officially crossed to the 'dark side' now. Rooting for Leicester so that Spurs don't do it.
