Can Leicester win the league guys? be great if they did.. Swans finally won again but its going to be tight, need to loan some quality players and hopefully win and finish above Chelsea  Great season as we said all clubs invested better (due to next seasons tv money) so the games are closer.. I am hoping Villa,Sunderland and Norwich go down and Leicester win the league. This week will be manic with transfers also.. Suspect Leicester will fade away and finish 6th. Good to see Swansea winning, it was much needed. Surprised they're not up there chasing Europe. Arguably it's more open then ever and feasibly possible for almost any team finish top 8 this year. With you on Sunderland and Villa to go down. Wouldn't mind Newcastle getting relegated again too. As for Saints, anywhere in the top 10 will probably do. good win against utd lettis Leicester still doing well, hell of a game at Norwich with 9 goals, results went our way today dragging hopefully more teams into the relegation mix. We never have beaten Everton, would be nice to start tonight, but can't see it. No players been brought in and we seriously need a striker. Austin and Naismith scored on debut, they would have suited us. I fancied Jordan rhodes a few years ago to come to us Hes still in the championship? Why though? Anyway anyone will be better than gomis.. |

Cmon Leicester!! Have checked the fixtures?? Last game of Season Leicester are away!!! Ranieri could lift the Prem title at Stamford Bridge!! What an embarrassment for Abromovich after their season Must say I doubted they would be even in the top 4 by Xmas but they have done it all season. Massive hats off to them and their fans unbelievable. Spurs def in the game now as well cracking season for them also |

Be great if they did it and today singing to city 'can we play you every week' swans play them in April and we'll be needing the 3 points, they totally outplayed us at ours and it could have been 6-0 we lost 3-0.. Credit to their staff as the fitness levels are so high they chase everything and start the same 11 every week with no big injuries. I haven't looked at the run in, but be good if Spurs and arsenal get on with a chance also. glad vardy signed a new contract also. Good for England with some great youngsters vardy,Ali,Kane,Barkley.. I am still praying for a Welsh upset in the euros |

C'MON Leicester OR Spurs.. to be fair the best two sides we (Swans) have played are these and are in the top 2. Leicester smashed us at our place, and we just got beat by Spurs 2-1 although our keeper had MOM it could have been way worse. The energy levels and work rate for both sides is so high. We need to get points quick and would be great to get a draw at Arsenal Wednesday, but I fear a heavy loss. As we all mentioned before this has to be the most exciting season for long long time..

Please beat or at least draw against the Woolwich, you were excellent at the Lane on Sunday and i was cursing the Arsenal secret agent between the sticks for most of the game. You can can get a result at the Library. Our next game isn't easy, West Ham were pretty poor against Sunderland and i expect them to be well up for this game..beating us will be like winning the league for them even more so if they dent our challenge. We must stop one of the players of the season for me in Dimitri Payet, he has been along with Toby Alderweireld the buy of the season. Then onto the biggest NLD for years, i don't have a ticket sadly but i'll be in a Tottenham boozer going a bit nuts (probably) |

t3c as much as their dislike for Spurs WHam also need to win as they are very close to Utd and the Europa league so big game for them as well. Could be a cracking feisty derby.

johnnyh The way the Chinese have gone about aggressively sourcing some pretty next level players has astonished me in recent weeks, more so that players went over there to play (the crazy $$$$$$$$ helps decisions like that i'm sure) No disrespect to the CSL, i'm sure it'll become a top league in time but it'll never surpass the EPL, La Liga, Bundesliga etc and the one fundamental thing it can never be entered into is the Champions League and let's be honest thats where every team/player playing at the highest level in Europe wants to be. It'l be really interesting to see how home grown players adapt to playing with their foreign counterparts and whether this will in time rub off on the national team

More importantly, over at The Boleyn – the majestic WHUFC did rather well against Spurs. If only Man U had got a draw at Watford... |

If only Man U had got a draw at Watford... Great result for West Ham, i thought Spurs would have beaten them by a few goals. When I saw we made 6 changes I thought WTF  then I thought may as well go for it, nothing to lose and have players fresh for Norwich on Saturday (huge game), fair play to the team (including a 21 yr old debut) as even though Arsenal hit the woodwork twice we missed a few also, another great win at the Emirates. Knowing us we will lose at home to Norwich on Saturday. Newcastle lost also which is great, they have spent big, really hope they go down with Norwich and villa.. More twists to come at the top and bottom. |

It'l be really interesting to see how home grown players adapt to playing with their foreign counterparts and whether this will in time rub off on the national team Yes Tis quite amazing but has been going on for quite a while in that lots of big managers have been here Scholari, Liipi , Sven etc. had lots of foruegners for a long time but now after the big guns as it were. They will never get the very top but good they are trying and they are serious. Will never out do the EOL globally etc but they do of course have a massive fan base to build on and crowds are quite big at the games. Eg if the CSL was in Europe it would come in around 3rd on average gates and will now get even bigger. There is a lot of buzz about all the new players etc. There is the Asian Champions League which the Chinese team Guangxhou Evergrande has won for the last two years. Final still a two leg affair games for the are massively sold out. Final tickets were official £150-200 and changing Hans at £300 -500 so big money at the top end. But smaller season tickets are around 50 - 300 for the season. Great atmosphere at the games etc. so Tis quite a good league. I actually run an international fan group for Guangzhou R&F who are known as the Fuli so we are known as the Fuligans. Around 49 of us attend their games it's one of the smaller teams in the CSL but a good beer shop outside the ground etc very oldschool |

A few years ago I went to watch Shanghai play Beijing, riot police everywhere went down the away end for a look and a beer, decent atmosphere. Shanghai won 3-2 and they had some decent Brazilian upfront, great game. I watched this guy not far from us smoke 20+ cigarettes during the game when i am over next I will try to get to another game. |

Arsenal Spurs was a decent game lads, lovely finish by Kane, but it's Leicesters to lose now, I think they have enough to keep going and win the title. swans beat Norwich..two poor sides, think we've done enough to survive. Newcastle lost again which is great, hopefully they go down. Can't believe they paid us 12m quid for Shelvey |

Well a massive massive day here in China it's the Guangzhou Derby day. Evergrande v Guangzhou R&F
60,000 will be at the stadium. I run the expat supporters group for R&F so 40 of us will be in attendance for the big one.
Evergrande are the top team in China so often a tough day for us but we always hope to turn them over.
We are away today so a result would be brilliant. Either way will be a big night here
