Will Leicester actually have a shot at winning the Premier League?

This is starting to become reality, Leicester on the road to win the title


We say the same thing every year. There are often one unexpected team around the top of the table. Well, this time that team is Leicester. And when we are into January they are still there. 

Even though they have had some problems with injuries, they keep their momentum going. They managed to keep their squad from being ransacked by the bigge clubs during the transfer window as well so far.

What is the secret? What has changed so much since last season?


Looking at the table, there are a few teams that you would think will finish strong. Liverpool is at 9th place at the moment. They should be able to climb some before the season is over.

Manchester United should definitely move up the table as well, but the way things are going it is not something to be taken for granted. 

Tottenham are fourth at the moment, they might actually stick around up there I think. West Ham was one of the teams performing really well last season as well. Will they be able to keep it up this season? If I remember correctly they are suffering some bad injuries that is not exactly helping. 

The big difference between the clubs in the Premier League is not the starting 11 players. The smaller clubs are having really good players there, not much different from the top clubs. 
The difference however is the reserves for the starting eleven. What happends when the season comes closer to the end and the squad is getting tired from all the games they have played over the entire season. Will they stay free from injuries on their key players?
