    "Leicester are just a complete team. Magnificent spirit, they head everything, throw their bodies at everything. How are Swansea going to score past this side that keeps clean sheet after clean sheet? 

    "The Swans are neat and tidy but there's no penetration, no threat." 

  2. GREAT SAVE!published at 41 mins

    Leicester 2-0 Swansea

    Danny Drinkwater breaks the Swansea flow with a trip which will allow Gylfi Sigurdsson to launch the ball in to the area once more. He can deliver a cross alright.

    Oh he shoots! From 35 yards. dipping and Kasper Schmeichel has to push it away.

    If Leicester win then five more points will guarantee the title for the Foxes.

    But if Tottenham slip up against West Brom on Monday then Claudio Ranieri's side will be crowned champions with victory at Manchester United next Sunday.

    Josh: Ashley Williams deserves a knighthood for contributions to football for this performance. #friendoffootball

    Smarty from Derby: Last week at work in Derby we asked 30 football fans who they wanted to win the league, 28 said they wanted Leicester purely to see a team everyone can relate to win the premier league, incredible.

    "I have to say, hand on heart, at no stage of the season have I genuinely believed that Leicester were going to win the title.

    Leicester 2-0 Swansea

    Let's not forget that Leo Ulloa is not some sort of plucky urchin plucked from the streets of Leicester.

    He did cost them a then club record £8m.

    Great header though. Took it brilliantly.

    "On a wave of fervour created in this thunderous atmosphere, Leicester City are currently taking another big stride towards writing the greatest story in Premier League history.

    "Foxes' manager Claudio Ranieri expressed total faith in Leonardo Ulloa after Jamie Vardy was sent off last week - and he has been rewarded with that crucial second goal."

    Leicester 2-0 Swansea

    Liverpool let a 2-0 lead slip yesterday, but can you really see Swansea scoring three times here?

    Ooooh and there's almost one! Another brilliant ball in, this time from Gylfi Sigurdsson, and Federico Fernandez heads over the top. He took it away from team-mate Andre Ayew to be honest.

    Plenty of wrestling in the box again...

    "Leicester are in dreamland! What a delivery there from Drinkwater. But the Swansea captain Ashley Williams again is at fault - he lets Ulloa in behind him. It's a great header, but Williams will be disappointed with his defending."

    Leonardo Ulloa

    Who needs Jamie Vardy? Stand-in Leo Ulloa heads the league leaders into a two-goal lead and it comes from a fabulous delivery from wide on the left.

    Danny Drinkwater whips in a delicious ball, Beckham-esque, and Ulloa gets the better of Ashley Williams to thump home a header. Right into the corner.

    Leicester 1-0 Swansea

    Riyad Mahrez wins a corner and from it comes danger. It's helped back in by Danny Drinkwater and left-back Christian Fuchs hooks an improvised volley goalward. Saved.

    Then Mahrez pops a pass through to Shinji Okazaki and his shot is deflected behind. Mahrez playing like the player of the year at the moment.

    "They do play nice stuff, Swansea, but they really need to move it quicker in the final third.

    "Leicester have been playing a high line because they know there's no real threat in behind. That means when they get the ball up to Ulloa there's plenty of players around him in support."

    Bored of a Leicester title win? Bored of life Chris. 

    The Leicester fans don't sound bored. It's still rocking inside the King Power. Can they force a second goal? It's been a game of few chances so far.

    "Riyad Mahrez's goal has settled any early nerves around The King Power Stadium but Swansea City still looking quite ordered and composed here. 

    "It was a horrible error by Ashley Williams that gave The Foxes the opening and their supporters are now responding to Tottenham's chant of "Leicester City We're Coming For You" with "Tottenham Hotspur We're Waiting For You."

    "Confident noises but still a long way to go here."

    Who are the neutrals out there backing to win the league and why? 

    Twiterati: Seen a few Leicester games recently and it's clear someone above is smiling on them. Such outrageous luck! #Spurs

    Jon Evans: Leicester haven't just been lucky, they've been the second most consistent team this season (behind Villa). Deserve to be top. 

    Desalegn Hailemariam: Leicester! Because it shows to the world that money can't buy everything.
