Even as an Arsenal fan who wasn't always happy with how things went this season ultimately it's impossible to say that we could have deserved it more than you. Big congratulations, soak it up

gg Leicester, wp! Hope they keep all their players and add a fair few decent players to cope with all those extra games.

Only 3 teams in PL history have lost fewer games than Leicester did in 2015-16 (AFC 0 in 03-04, CFC 1 in 04-05, LFC 2 in 08-09).

10 - Only four previous PL champions have won the title by a greater margin of points than Leicester this season

While I think it's great what Leicester have done, I really hate the 'in Premier League' history stats.

Same.  Why are the pre EPL stats totally irrelevant when history is discussed?  Not much has changed apart from going from 42 to 38 games.

What will Leicester's magnificent achievement do for general managerial job security in the next few seasons?

Will the pressure increase on every manager to "do a Leicester"? Will the unrealistic targets of owners and fans just spiral out of control?

Well the LMA chairman is going to say that, it's his job to protect his members. I don't think Leicester's achievement is going to make much difference to job security. I don't think smaller clubs think they'll do the same. We all know it's a one off.
I think the issue is more with the bigger clubs. If a smaller club comes up and takes a piece one of 'their' spots, the pressure is on that manager. If Man Utd had secured top 4, I think Van Gaal stays. Now I don't think so.

Tighty, what are your, and Leicester fans generally, realistic expectations for next season? I know it's early days and I fully expect this transfer window to be the most insane in history but top half? Top 8? Top 6? Top 4 and challenging again???  Smiley
