Spurs lost their heads big time there, they way they have been carrying on over the last few weeks it looks like they are trying to take over Leeds's mantle.
Congrats to Leicester though, you don't fluke the title, if you finish top of the pile after 38 games spread over 9 months, playing in all conditions, starting in late summer, then through autumn and winter right through to spring, then you thoroughly deserve to be called champions.

Hell of a season for them. I really hope they can keep as much of that team together as possible. It'll be hard to hold on to the likes of Mahrez, Kante and even Vardy with the big money that will soon be flashed in their face.

Amazing, won the league with 2 games to spare. They were consistent all year. There was no dip in form nor there was total dominance for a stretch. That's how you win the league. Credit goes to both ranieri and the players who all just put their heads down and went to work.

An achievement that transcends sport.

They are THE example of what it is to fight to the very end. Give it your all and never give up.

A truly inspiration story for EVERY single person on the planet to strive to be better than what they are right now.

I'm so happy that the oligarchy of clubs that has dominated this sport for a very long time has finally been broken.

Leicester City, people from all walks of life salute you. We are all in amazement at what we have witnessed.

Really happy to see a new team win the league. Well done Leicester.  :buttrock



Although I think it's reflective of how pish poor the league has been this year, rather than how good Leicester have been. If I was a Spuds or Arsenal fan, I'd be fuming.

Yeah there's quite a bit of truth in that, you wouldn't normally expect the previous seasons champions to be hovering above the relegation zone at Christmas that's for sure. Plus even if they win their remaining games they'll still accrue less points than what both Rafa and Brendan did when they finished runners up.
Still a hell of an achievement though all the same.

Terry sent off today, which means his last match in a Chelsea shirt is a 3-2 defeat to Sunderland  :laugh:  :laugh:

City only drawing with Arsenal means that United can clinch fourth place if they win their last 2 games.
Normally I'd be praying that United lose against West Ham on Wednesday but after seeing City's fans stream out of the Etihad en masse leaving Pellegrini to say goodbye to an empty stadium I'm not so sure now.
It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to see Guardiola and money bags City knocked down a peg or two.
