I just can't hate Leicester. Especially with Ranieri as manager. They epitomise team work and even though they have valuable players like Vardy, Mahrez and Kanté, it's evident that it's a team effort. They work their ***** off and don't revert to dirty tricks or boring tactics to win games.
They weren't even considered a top 6 team in the EPL at the start of the season which makes this an even more impressive feat. This isn't like a Tottenham, Lyon, Atletico, Roma or Dortmund winning the league.
Hats off to them.
What about the doping allegations? That would explain lots of things...
And what about the league investigating their money accounts?
That does seem a WHOLE LOT like the league doesn't want Leicester to win.
Leicester were 5000 to 1. Got to be the biggest upset in the history of sports.
I don't think cooking the books, if that's what happened, should be allowed to go unpunished, but let us not act like this practice isn't happening around the continent in multiple places.
It's not even close to be an all time greatest upset thing in all of sports. In soccer yes it's a pretty big one but overall not at all. People showing an incredible lack of historical knowledge. What surprise.

I've read that Nottingham Forest winning the league in 1977-1978 was more unlikely.
....no, Leicester was in the top flight last year. Nottingham was not in the top flight the year before they won.
