Leicester have won it at a canter, something our so called superstars can't claim to have done. I am fuming with our disgraceful form in the league. Two years without laying a glove on anyone.

Our players need to get in at pre-season, shut the fuck up and start working. And I mean really working. Leicester are no world beaters but have a brilliant work ethic and togetherness that money just can't buy. City players should be sat at home embarrassed this evening.

Well done to Leicester. Can't wait to see them in the Champions League next season.

Congratulations to City on winning the trophy.

Unbelievable performances all season. No excuses for all bar about 3 teams in the premier league this season and definitely not for next. Time for managers to actually to start managing teams and coaching the best out of their players rather than just wanting new ones

A genuine well done to Leicester!

Perhaps they might now pay back the money to all those little local businesses they fucked over when they went into receivership? Just a thought.

They totally deserve it! I knew Claudio Ranieri when he was manager here in Torino and he's a true gentleman, but I'm very glad for our ex Bluemooner Kasper Schmeichel too!
From Torino, Italia to Manchester, Lancashire this City is always our City!

Carragher talking about Leicester players in twenty years walking down the street in Leicester and being stopped and congratulated for what they did all those years before. Not gonna happen to you, eh la!

Well done the Foxes. Well done Ranieri.

Always had a soft spot for them since April 26th 1969... (the days of wooden rattles and friendly banter!)

Perhaps a shout for Nigel Pearson who this time last year won the manager of the month as Leicester manager? (Might have had something to do with Leicester's new found resolve and backbone?)

Odd (lifted from Leicester fans forum)


'May 2nd 1993. Peter Schmeichel is 29 years old. His utd side don't play but their title rivals don't do enough and Man Utd win the league, his first Premier League title.

Fast forward 23 years...

May 2nd 2016. Kasper Schmeichel is 29 years old. His Leicester City side don't play but their title rivals don't do enough and Leicester win the league, his first Premier League title.

Funny how football works...'

City, Chelsea, and Arsenal should be embarrassed.

fair play to Leicester. they did what they needed to do by any means necessary.

but the 3 aforementioned clubs shouldve battling it out. think of all the money spent and you get back jack shit.

Well done Leicester City.

No grudge on them winning it but it makes the league look very weak at present.

Well done. When we won the league and people moaned at me I told them they were arseholes for thinking 2 or 3 teams should have a constant monopoly.

If we can't win it then im chuffed it wasn't United; Arsenal etc.

Yes well done Leicester, from just avoiding relegation to winning the league the following season. Almost unbelievable energy levels week in week out and helped by having hardly any injuries

A lot more teams than that - Liverpool, Everton, Newcastle, Sunderland, Villa, Stoke. All bigger clubs with a bigger budget.

And the obvious one you missed where there was a great stat last night - the rags have spent more in the last two seasons than Leicester has in their entire 132 year history.
