Manchester City 1 Tottenham Hotspur 2
City suffered there second consecutive home defeat and are in 4th place,6 points behind the leaders.
Harry Kane gave Spurs the lead with a controversial 53rd minute penalty then City equalised with 15 minutes to go.
Christian Eriksens 83rd minute winner moved the Spuds into 2nd place just 2 points behind Leicester and equal on points with North London rivals,Arsenal.
Sadly I think Danny Welbecks winner in the 5th minute of injury time could be the beginning of the end of Leicesters title dream but we will see.

Anyway,Share restaurant is a great place to watch the footie.I found these pics on Facebook which can even make a defeat seem like a victory......enjoy on this fine Udon Thani Monday morning. ;)

Most of the young ladies could well be trained in some sort of resuscitation technique,although they may ask for a 200k Thai Baht deposit before treatment is administered ! :D

The Gunners put on a poor show for a side looking to win the League.
United had what could, at best, be called a makeshift side & were beaten last time out by struggling Sunderland. However the visitors allowed them to score 2 goals before they even got started.
Youngster Marcus Rashford will get most of the headlines for scoring 2 & laying on the third but it was with Mata & Schneiderlin that United kept a brake on the Gunners.

Spurs continue to look like the side who are going to contest Leicester for the title. Swansea will probably feel hard done by yesterday as their efforts certainly deserved something out of the game.

You would have thought that this season Arsenal would never have had a better opportunity to lift the title but once again they seem to be blowing it when the going gets tough.
United are,actually,playing better with the youngsters and young Rashford is having a dream start to his first team career.
But,I agree,that Spurs are the main challengers to Leicester for the title.They have been very impressive this season,so far.

Bit of a slip by the Foxes, but derby games are never easy.
Chelsea continue to rocket up the table, now 8th. With Sunderland drawing the Norwich loss is enough to send them down into the zone. Can Big Sam really pull off another escape?? It is starting to look like it is 1 of Sunderland or Newcastle for the drop. Newcastle have a two game advantage over their North East neighbours, so it is vital that they get something at Stoke tonight..

Hopefully Leicester can get back on track after this setback. 'Spuds' could go top on goal difference if they win at West Ham tonight.

Quite remarkable.
Leicester drop 2 points on Tuesday to allow the pack to catch up & so all the leading contenders drop 3 points to make it a Foxes win.. :D

Even more remarkable, United are now behind Citi on goal difference only.
What a wacky season.. Come on The Foxes!!! :D

At the bottom it looks like a battle for 2 places between 3 clubs. Villa are surely down & out now & the Swans win at the Gunners has probably put them out of reach of the 3 sides below.

It seems like nobody wants to take the bull by the horns and make strides towards the title. Toon lost a winnable game which would have seen them three clear of the 'Mackems' with a game in hand. They lack confidence, fight and imagination and I won't be surprised if they are playing the likes of MK Dons next season. :oops: #-o

Its certainly the most interesting Premiership for a few seasons......just forget the quality.
A bit of a surprise that the Spuds lost but West Ham are a good side and,looking at the table,have Champions League aspirations of their own !
Arsenal seem to have imploded.....Hull,Barcelona,United and,now,Swansea.....very disappointing results.
Citeh just seem to be playing well when it suits them,with Pellegrini leaving at the end of the season.
United were a bit lucky last night but seem to have found a blend of youth and experience by default.Varela,Fosu-Mensah,Rashford,Weir and Riley are all good youngsters who have benefitted from Warren Joyce's shrewd management of the Under 21's,of which they are top of the league.Not quite the class of 92 but at least a couple of them have what it takes to have a good career in the Premiership......not forgetting that Martial and Memphis are also youngsters,although big money buys.
Leicester....not wholly convincing at the moment but they are still top and most neutrals will hope they get the title,surely ?
Chelsea....coming good now but a big ask for them to make the top 4.....certainly a good bet to lift the FA Cup.

At the bottom,Villa are gone......Norwich are on a dreadful run and its hard to see where they can pick up a win,at present......looks like its between Newcastle and Sunderland for the last relegation spot.When I've watched Newcastle they seem to have some decent players but the results dont measure up and you wouldnt bet against Big Sam.
Just when I thought our chance had passed,you go and save the best for last.
