5 of the last 6 teams to be top at Christmas have gone on to win the league.

I'm the total opposite. Not even slightly flustered, even when they scored late on. Just enjoy the whole ride, whatever happens.

If we suddenly reverted to the overall last season's form of just over a point a game to the end of the season we'll still finish about sixth.

That's well beyond my expectations so I don't care now.
 
I just can't stop smiling.

Now they just need to worry about all the teams above us......... Oh....... Ha ha ha

I'll admit, I went for a run at half-time as I couldn't watch the second half. My nerves are unbelievable at the moment despite our great run. The more we win the more I fear losing. This run of form is so fabulous I cannot put it into words. Beautiful times.

Micky, I'm the same. I stopped listening to Radio Leicester last season when we started our winning streak. Now I'm unable to listen during the game unless I jinx it.
 
It was funny to hear the commentator talking about how difficult it was going to be for Morgan and Was as they weren't used to playing with each other.

who was MOTM?

I was not watching or listening but Vardy got an assist and won a penalty, Okazaki got a goal and won a penalty and Mahrez scored both penalties...any of them in Contention?

I thought Okazaki was excellent. Morgan deserves a mention as well. But Kante, again, was absolutely everywhere.

Me three. Nervous as **** at the end.
 
What are the odds for us staying up? I'm tempted to put some money on that. Saw before odds on us going down at 18-1, Chelsea were 40-1. Must be doubts on us getting those 2 points.
 
It took us to the penultimate game last season to get to 38 points - and here we are at Christmas ! Incredible, just incredible !

The only team in Premier League history to be bottom on Christmas Day one year and top the following Christmas.

The same thing did happen to Norwich. In 1987, they were bottom at Xmas. In 1988, they were top at Xmas, albeit with five points less than we have (they'd played 17 and had 33 points).

By the end of the season, they'd taken another 29 points from their remaining 21 games and finished fourth. It was that season when Arsenal went to Liverpool on the last day to win it on goals scored.

1988? Before football was invented? I think not
 
Just got on the train. Cracking day out so far. Whilst they had more of the ball, their two goal came from ricochets in the box and it genuinely didn't feel like they were going to score outside of that. Fuchs was amazing, definite MOM. Happy days and my beers are tasting pretty good now.
 
MOTM was Wes for the 2nd game in a row for me!

Fuchs closely behind.
