BlueStar Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Be funny for teams like Liverpool and Man U to try and buy some of these players and get turned down because they can't offer them Champions League football like Leicester can. That still seems like a weird thing to say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Us finishing 3rd after coming up takes some beating IMO. Different era though, Blackburn were champions three years after getting promoted. Runners up after two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 A team consisting of Danny Simpson, Robert Huth, Wes Morgan, Marc Albrighton and Danny Drinkwater have a genuine shout of winning the league But some people still think a decent manager can't make a difference They kicked on end of last season though winning 7 of 9 under Pearson. To me it seems they've just come across some kind of magic combination in regards to attitude, personality & ability re Vardy/Mahrez. Shows how much is down to attitude if anything.

Mole_Toonfan Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Even if they end up just qualifying for the CL, greatest managerial feat in the PL era? Second behind Kinnear winning the league 5 years on the trot with Wimbledon IMO. Us finishing 3rd after coming up takes some beating IMO. Leicester might as well have to be frank, this shits all over anything in the PL era and it's not close IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmonkey Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Even if they end up just qualifying for the CL, greatest managerial feat in the PL era? Easily if we're talking about a single season in isolation. Would love to see them win it. Ranieri would have a statue in no time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 After Arsenal next week Leicester have a pretty decent run to the end of the season: Norwich (h), West Brom (h), Watford (a), Newcastle (h) 5-0, Palace (a), Southampton (h), Sunderland (a), West Ham (h), Swansea (h), Man Utd (a), Everton (h), Chelsea (a). They could do this like, no cup games as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Leicester (the club itself) put us and the mackems to shame. If we had been where Leicester are have been since Xmas, Ashley would have peddled Vardy and Mharez by now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do get your point and hell what Leicester are doing defies all logic but the forest thing was in the era of Liverpool at their best and Forest had finished 3rd in the 2nd division before coming up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
