    Rob tootel: And there was me believing Leicester''s target was to get 40 points this season...

    Tony, Spurs fan: The cliché "on the beach already" very much in evidence today.   

    Matt Harrison: First time I've been able to watch a whole #LeicesterCity, external game all season. They look every bit like title contenders.

    Title

    Leicester need five points to win the title. And that is only if Tottenham win every single match.

    "Leicester have answered Tottenham's 4-0 victory at Stoke with their own 4-0 win today. A brilliant, brilliant performance. Ulloa coming in for Vardy got two goals, resolute defending, another clean sheet. 

    "Eight points clear. Over to you Spurs."

    There is an air of joy mixed with slight disbelief at the King Power. A surreal season...

    "Fantastic play from Gray. He sailed past player after player on his way to chipping towards the far post. The three subs combine, Swansea woeful, Leicester are going to win the league. Can you believe it?!

    "This was the game I was nervous about. But Swansea have been blown away. Positive, exciting. And it looks like another clean sheet."

    Crystal Palace 2-1 Watford

    It will be Palace v Manchester United in the Cup final then. 1990 and all that.

    Someone get Ian Wright on the phone.

    GOAL - Leicester 4-0 Swanseapublished at 85 mins

    Marc Albrighton

    I don't think I even told you that Marc Albrighton had come on, but he has smashed in a fourth goal for Leicester. Wonderful play too down the right as Demarai Gray skins his full-back and sends in a cracking cross, Andy King heads it down, Gray meets it on the bounce and though Lukasz Fabianski is equal to his shot, he can do nothing  about Albrighton's emphatic follow-up.

    Booosh! Into the top corner.

    Leicester 3-0 Swansea

    'We're gonna win the league!' sing the Leicester fans with plenty of justification.

    It is not over yet though. Leicester's next three games look tough on paper.

  14. GREAT SAVE!published at 80 mins

    Leicester 3-0 Swansea

    Andy King has always had an eye for goal and he almost makes it four, galloping up on the overlap to get on the end of a counter attack but he sees Lukasz Fabianski save his first attempt before curling over the loose ball.

    King must be the first player to win League One, the Championship and [potentially] the Premier League?

    Especially with the same club. Definitely with the same club.

    Ben Jones, Essex: Am I right in saying Leicester are eight ahead and Spurs still have 12 to play for? Call me the eternal optimist or completely crazy if you like but it's not over yet! United & Chelsea away aren't a guaranteed six points. Stranger things have happened...

    Andre Ayew heads wide from a corner before Leonardo Ulloa comes off in clear pain.

    He is replaced by Andy King so there will be a change of shape. Looks like Jeff Schlupp through the middle.

    Martin Barrow: Kaspar Schmeichel likely to win Premier League just 17 years after dad Peter... a record?  

    Nick Green: Tactically brilliant from Ranieri today. With the absence of Vardy, Sclupp has provided pace and power.

    Ryan: Do you think Okazaki runs the bath for the rest of the team?

    Leonardo Ulloa is now in a bit of strife, he's holding his back after a heavy landing. Leicester need him to fit and firing, especially if Jame Vardy ends up with a lengthier ban. 

    Ulloa has some treatment but he's back out there. Worth the risk?

    The first lull in action and atmosphere. Maybe the fans have sung themselves hoarse. Swansea bring on Ki Sung-yueng.
