Nate Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Made the mistake of tuning into Talksport. The presenter: 'Poor Sam Allardyce has got nothing to work with here. There's got to be better players in the UK than these foreign mercenaries that have come to the Stadium of Light' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their football is a joy to watch tbh. The little triangles to bring the ball out and the way their players hold the ball under pressure is top notch stuff. Anyone who thinks they would be producing that football under Nigel Pearson wants their head checked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varadi Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 If Leicester win the league, where does it rank in terms of all-time footballing upsets? They were 5000/1 ffs - I'm genuinely struggling to think of anything that compares. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 West Ham is a difficult game. Will need to play better to beat them but West Ham will come out to play more. Really hope Spurs don't win in a bit. That will be that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, it's very different to even a cup upset, winning the league has shown that they have been the most consistent this year. Can't see them losing it now.

Guest firetotheworks Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Leicester City are going to win the premier league and with points to spare. I can't get my head around it, it makes the Mighty Ducks story look like Man City's. Even that as a comparison doesn't do it justice, it'll be nothing short of the greatest sporting achievement of all time. And they completely deserve it.

Greece '04 is the only thing that comes close in my lifetime, I think, unless there's been some crazy upsets in the European domestic leagues I'm not aware of. This is a substantially greater achievement than even that, however. A wonderful example to sport. Given the whole context, this has to be one of the greatest sporting achievements in modern history?

Forest winning the league and then the European Cup is probably the one to beat, but I think football has changed so much that this surpasses that. Any team can win a cup competition and Greece aren't really that different to Wimbledon or Wigan in the FA Cup imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I don't know enough about all sports to properly comment, but from my knowledge it's right up there as one of the greatest achievements surely. With the level of money involved and the level of ability within their team this is a truly sensational feat. They've shown that the basics of passion, determination, resilience, organisation and a good work ethic are the foundations for what makes champions, champions. That touch of class here or there undoubtedly helps and they have that in the likes of Mahrez and to a slightly lesser extent Vardy. Ranieri has proven just how good he is too. Top, top stuff from LCFC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
