Can Leicester start doing some Burnley level time wasting now?

Maybe then Atkinson can add 2 minutes injury time and blow the whistle on 91:54?

I'm not as bothered now that I truly realise how terrible Chelsea are. We should be making top 4, it's right there for the taking.
Yep, we have a difficult schedule but we have better teams than Chelsea and Arsenal. We should get the fourth place if we don't feck it up. 2 points in 14 games are nothing.

GD .. we are at 13.. the other 2 above us are at 17..

Basically 1 loss for them/ 1 win for us can wipe it away.

This is why Fergie was so great. This was out dominant period of every season. We would mentally break every other team in the league and coast in to the finish line.
Not in, to name a few, 1996 (last day), 1999 (last day), 2003 (one game to spare), 2007 (I think two to spare), 2008 (last day), 2009 (One? to spare), 2011 (one game to spare).

Bournemouth had the ball 32% of the time, took 12 shots, 7 on goal, 4 went in. Chelsea had the ball 68% of the time, took 11 shots, 7 on goal, 0 went in. Nice!

Twice in a row that Spurs did it. I am going to go to delete all my Pochettino posts to not look a fool.

ffs why couldnt we have won last night
Ah lad top 4 was a dream one month ago and it's in our hands now. We were never going to win every game. We done well to fight back last night against a Burnley team in good form and are annoying as hell to play against at times. I'd rather look at last night as being the wake up call we needed after a dream start under Ole. We're better than both Arsenal and Chelsea so I'm confident we will eventually overtake them.
