Over achieving

I don't think they're 'Over achieving' at all, personally. Leicester know what they do well, and they do it well.

They've gone back to the more traditional english style of play, and all these 'football fashionista' ponces don't know how to cope. There's too much continental, & other general bollocks contaminating English football these days.

"False #9's & 10's"
"4-2-3-1's"
"Goalkeeper coaches"
"Attacking full central defensive midfield wing backs"

All of it, sh1te, imo. Leicester have proved that basic things are essential to gathering points. You don't need to be fancy about it; just get out there, and do it - and cut the cr@p while you're at it.

That's exactly why it irks me.

I totally understand that my view on this is the minority view and that it would be a nice story. Sadly my brain thinks it's a awful reminder of where Everton sit.

I feel the same as you mate. I have no axe to grind with Leicester, but their performance just peeves me off in that it provides discomfiting reminder that my team is incapable of doing anything remotely similar.

Genuine question.

What is the stance on Vardy for the majority of Leicester fans? Does his racism ever get mentioned?

Hasn't been mentioned in months.

In my opinion though, I think it's fairly unfair to brand him as a racist for one drunken comment in a casino although it doesn't exactly fill me with pride. He trains and plays with Okazaki...

If Okazaki forgives him that's good enough for me.
 
I'll be very surprised if they keep themselves up there however I've said that all season now and they keep proving me wrong

Ok a better way of saying it.

their aims for this season was probably to consolidate a position, win a good few games etc and just have a good season for a recently promoted side. So on that basis, winning the league is probably far exceeding their aims, so overachieving.

right now they are the best team in the country and the table shows that in that respect so they are deservedly there, not over achieving being up there.
