As the seasons gone on we've all gradually had more and more time to get used to the idea that Leicester might actually win the league this season but at the start of this season Leicester City were 5000/ 1 to win the premier league title, exactly the same odds as the Loch Ness monster being found.
Puts the enormity of what their on verge of doing right back into perspective, incredible achievement if they pull it off.

Teamwork mate, they have it in abundance.
11 players with the work ethic of Sanchez and you have a winning team.
Alas, this season, even Sanchez hasn't had the work ethic of Sanchez, hence why we are 11 points behind them.
But, as you say, incredible achievement and they deserve to win the league and fully deserve the plaudits that will come their way.

If / when Leicester win the league it will just show people on here who think wenger is not replaceable, he is, and someone has achieved more than him on a lesser budget against greater odds and with less fuss. Ranieri has just proved that its not about having the highest paid manager in the league and having the most expensive players on the planet either. Its about chemistry and if its right it works and if it isn't it doesn't. They may or may not follow up next year but whatever, they did it without politics and money. And they have a new stadium. Ironic that ranieri didn't win the league with money bags chelski and they this season are nowhere.

Steve, I would love to see Ranieri being as consistent as Arsene for the next three years, then I what you said would make sense.

Leicester have benefitted from the perfect storm. Mourinho leaving Chelsea, Man City replacing their manager next season and Man U having problems post SAF.
They have also benefitted from getting knocked out of both domestic clubs early and having no Champions League football. Next season when players may have departed, with CL footballl, the pressure of being Champions and the big boys back on the scene with new managers and players, I would be surprised if they are in the top six. I believe Tottenham will also suffer for similar reasons next season.
We will of course finish top four!

Sen what you got against Raneiri mate he seems like a really nice man to me? Why do you want to see him underachieve so much for the next 3 years :-)
