Can Leicester win the league? Its the question everyone has been debating over the weekend. The Foxes stunning 3-1 win at title rivals Manchester City has propelled them into a five-point advantage at the top of the Premier League with just 13 games to play.Here, we round up views from across Sky Sports, including those of pundits, managers and journalists, on whether Claudio Ranieris side can go all the way… Thierry Henry, Sky Sports Thierry Henry has been impressed by Leicesters desire At the moment, for me, they are THE team to win it. Not only have they shown they can win it, theyve shown they can cope with the pressure. Theyre top of the league, they go to Manchester City and win the game 3-1 - and easily as well, it could have been four or five. They dont show theyre nervous. We see a good desire. They want to grab it.Claudio Ranieri, Leicester manager Leicester Citys 3-1 win has no significance at all, says Claudio Ranieri I dont believe the bookmakers. At the beginning of the season the bookmakers said, sack Ranieri. I hope one time they are right!Jamie Redknapp, Sky SportsCan Leicester win the league? I dont really believe in miracles but youre starting to believe in this one. The fact theyve got no Europa League, no FA Cup, means its pretty much Saturday-Saturday for them. For Ranieri that must be a joy. He can just keep them ticking over, there hasnt got to be too much training.Leicester have got every chance, and its almost becoming theres to lose.Alan Smith, Sky Sports They absolutely wiped the floor with Manchester City. Alan Smith Its right that they should be considered favourites. You beat Liverpool at home in fine style and then a few days later you go to the Etihad and do what they did to what were then the title favourites. They absolutely wiped the floor with City.Manuel Pellegrini, Man City manager Manuel Pellegrinis Man City have lost significant ground to Leicester If Leicester continue playing the way they are [then they are favourites for the title]. There are 13 games more so its difficult to predict.Oliver Kay, The TimesA lot of people, including Pellegrini, says this is happening because all the Premier League teams have a lot of money now and can buy top players.I have to say that is disingenuous. This is Leicester, theyre not shopping in the same markets as Swansea and Southampton, let alone the top clubs.They are out-performing, out-thinking, out-fighting, out-running teams who have got enormously bigger budgets. This isnt just a levelling out of the Premier League, this is a team doing something absolutely exceptional. John Dillon thinks there is a lot of substance behind Leicesters title push Graeme Souness, Sky Sports Im as amazed as anyone. From November, December youre expecting Leicester to drop off the pace. Fair play. Graeme Souness Im as amazed as anyone. From November, December youre expecting Leicester to drop off the pace, they dont have the biggest squad and the way they play football - they give the ball away more than any other team - which means you have to work hard to get it back and expend a lot of energy.Like everyone else, Im amazed. But I never saw them involved in a bad game last year. This year theyve turned those draws and losses into wins. Fair play.Garry Monk, former Swansea boss Garry Monk has been impressed by Leicesters approach Its an unbelievable story and great for the league. Its all on merit as well. Its not like theyre getting lucky or hanging on in any of the games. They have won every single game on merit.Theres only two games theyve lost all season. Whats clear in the way they play is they know exactly who they are and what their jobs are. Its very organised and they dont pretend to be something else or try anything else. They do exactly what they know they can do and its obviously very effective. The way they are playing, you cant put it past them going on a winning run again and maintaining what they are doing. The fact is, the difference between them and the other teams that are up there is its a bonus for them. The others are expected to be there and expected to win. They are playing without fear because its a bonus for them.Ian Ladyman, Daily Mail Daily Mail football editor Ian Ladyman thinks Leicesters success is helping Tottenham [Ranieri] certainly is in manager of the year territory. Finishing in the top four isnt a given, but from where they are, that has to happen now. I think from that point on he will start to think about winning the league.He suffered at Chelsea because he didnt look and sound like people expected a Premier League manager to look and sound. Hes showing now that he knows what hes doing.Saturdays game was absolutely uplifting. It really was. From a neutral point of view, the way they played, the belief they showed, the goals they scored, the commitment they showed… If that dressing room didnt believe beforehand that they can win the title, they definitely will believe it now, because that was a Championship-winning performance.Paul Merson, Sky Sports Paul Merson is expecting Arsenal to beat Leicester next weekend No [they cant win the title] because if Arsenal beat them next week theyre two points behind them - thats how quickly it changes. Theyre top four, and Ive just written Manchester United off today [Saturday]. I dont think Manchester United win the league now.Watch Arsenal v Leicester and Man City v Tottenham live on Sky Sports 1 HD on Sunday, or watch for £6.99 without a contract, on NOW TV Also See: First-time title winners Ranieri: Dont look down Arsenal new title favourites Ulloa: Everything is possible Cheap Air Max 1 Free Shipping .

TORONTO -- Canada is turning to Carey Price to start the World Cup of Hockey.Coach Mike Babcock designated Price as Canadas starter for Saturdays tournament opener against the Czech Republic.Price has always been the presumed No. 1 for Team Canada. The lone question was the 29-year-olds readiness after a long layoff. He started and completed two of Canadas three exhibition games, including his first game action in nearly 10 months last week.He looked predictably rusty in that 4-2 loss to the Americans, yielding three goals on 24 shots. Babcock said the performance wasnt Carey-like for obvious reasons: Price hadnt played since late November after a knee injury cost him nearly all of last season with the Montreal Canadiens.Babcock was satisfied with Prices second start, against Russia. The 2015 Vezina Troophy winner stopped 24 shots in a 3-2 overtime win.ddddddddddddThe Canadians looked dominant in winning two of their three tournament exhibition games. They outshot the two teams (playing the U.S. twice) by a combined 129-74, including 99-52 at even strength. Canada fired more than 40 shots twice, including a 48-shot barrage against the Russians in the pre-tournament finale.Still, the games were tight and Babcock said he believes that is how the tournament will be, too.Canada is seeking its second straight World Cup title, albeit 12 years after the last one in 2004.Game notes Defenseman Shea Weber sat out the final practice Friday but is expected to play against the Czechs.
