From this point in time, what's a bigger miracle, Leicester winning or Spurs?

Gotta be Spurs at this point. They have to win out, even drawing any of their final 3 games and title is Leicester's. Plus they need Leicester to go 1 loss and 1 draw at best.

lol no 3 games out of 38 does not diminish the scale of Leicesters achievement.

Right but I read it as "at this point, would it be a bigger miracle for which team". 8 points clear with 2 games remaining for them and 3 for Spurs, it's gotta be Spurs. If Spurs even draw at Chelsea today, Leicester wins the title without even stepping on the field again.

What an awesome first year to get the Premier League in the States. Ranieri is my favorite old man ever. What a fucking Boss.

Awesome result!
Full credit to Leicester for a fantastic achievement.

GG Leicester

God damn. I didn't think that year Aguero won it at the death would ever be topped. Gotta love the EPL.

Leicester City!

Unfortunately he's the kind of man that the richest European clubs are listening to, because he's going to make them richer. Anyone who spouts crap like "That [meaningless summer competition] is something they would like to integrate into their portfolio? when talking about a competitive sport should be banned from the game, but the problem is the people running the clubs don't want competition, they want income.

Europa League final tickets were ?290 online earlier today. Doubled in price by the final whistle tonight. Probably should have pulled the trigger as I could always have resold if LFC didn't qualify

we almost had four Spanish finalists this year...

Just pulled the trigger on two Europa Final tickets from a re-sale site - hopefully the transaction goes through and it's legit. I'm taking a Zurich based client so got work to pay for the tickets! Just need to cover flight and hotel myself

Anyone know how the champion's league spot? Is it an extra spot, or does it take the place of the 4th place team? That would be an even better result!

Actually they changed it so a league can have 5 max champions league spots.

Only way the 4th place team was missing is if EPL teams won the champions league and Europa league.
