the hype behind this team's story is getting nauseating. it's supposed to be "inspiring" and "one for the ages" when, really, nobody cares. this wasn't some historic cinderella fairytale where the scrappy underdog overcame all odds in achieving glory. the really didn't win the league at all.
the traditional favorites literally lost the league for them. has there ever been a year where the powers of english football have collectively been worse? you know it's bad when spurs and arsenal are the only teams considered to be in the race this late into april.
anyone else not deeply moved by this "epic triumph" and sick of the narrative the media and the league are trying to push. it just seems so forced.
to me, it just means the PL had a really shitty product this year.

kek "powers", all the powers are dead now, and the only reason Leicester is winning this year is because Chelsea is still on its hangover.
>>67070020
>really shitty product
average bait but then you had to go too far
>>67070020
So true. Leicester is a number 6 team but the top 4 literally played like shit in the early weeks
I think we get that impression because we're in America
I know the storyline would be different because they're actually good now, but I think the hype levels over in England are probably what the hype levels here would be if like the Cubs went and won the World Series or the Browns or Bills won the Super Bowl
Over here it seems like "oh everybody else was shit" but when you really look at the Leicester squad and how mediocre to shit they've consistently been for their whole history, then you look at the history of the Prem with pretty much 4 teams only ever winning it, then you look at the individual stories of each of these players and the working class shithole that supports the team............
Add all the together and you get this hype story. As Americans we don't get the full sense of it because we're not familiar with all those storylines so it seems pretty forced and like a media narrative when in reality it's the real deal
results like this is why the english league is superior to spain italy and france meme leagues where only 2 or 3 teams dominate
>>67070175
and the 9th best team is in the EL semi, kek
>>67070200
>Leicester would finish 14th in La Liga
I don't remember Barcelona being able to field 13 teams
Funny because I couldn't give a shit first, but now I'm willing Leicester to win it. Especially as I don't want spuds to.
ttttttttttttttttttttttttt.......... united fan
>>67070374
too bad united will be the one ruining the lester dream by winning 7-0 and injurying memehrez and kanté
>>67070020
Premier League is a very long race and every season, at least 4-5 teams are "technically" competing for it. The fact that some of the heavy favored teams failed to keep up, doesn't mean a team like Leicester shouldn't take the props for managing to keep up, especially with such a budhet difference.
Then again, looking at your flag I suppose you don't have any clue about football. You should probably fuck off.

literally this
Leicester aren't impressive
they've all but won the league with 76 points, which is damning of the state of the premier league's top clubs.
If Leicester were going to win it with 90 points just beating out the traditional opposition, okay, it'd be impressive, but really, in any other season a team of Leicester's quality would be challenging for 4th and being talked about as the new Southampton being plucky and challenging the big boys

We're witnessing a potential turn of the era and the collapse of the "top four" though similar to the Liverpool/Aston Villa/Nottingham Forest/Everton drops in the 90's.
Which is great because fuck those plastic pieces of shit. About time we get some proper competition even if it does fuck up our European places.
>>67070020
Nobody else stepped up. Not even Arse or your precious Liverpool. Not even the chosen ones have schlepped up.
This is what the entire world has been waiting for. The FA is going to licence the fuck out of every book, movie and capekino to come
>>67070020
>arselel
>"considered to be in the race"
you've literally never watched the premier league before this season. see:>>67071152
>>67070824
This isn't the 90s anymore, toto. For the past decade the league has been getting more and more competitive as mid-table teams have continued strengthening their squads with newfound money. A crunch in points-spread is the key symptom of a competitive league.
Thats what makes Leicester's run so impressive, the lack of 90 point top team(s) shows this isn't the 'easiest' year for them to win it, it's the hardest.
>>67070959

>>67072066
The city of Leicester will be happy about this triumph for decades to come senpai, just playing 6 group games in the CL and hosting Real Madrid at the KPS is massive for them. It doesn't matter if they finish 16th next year and leave the CL with 2 points, it's still a massive victory to have won the league against all odds. They won't become like Chelsea who expect a league medal and CL semi or better every year.

are you talking about Europe in general or just England?
>>67070233
England love Scrappy Underdogs. We have an 'As long as you leave everything you have out there, you can hold your head high even in defeat' attitude.
America love Dominant Champions. You guys have an 'Only winning matters, second place is the first loser' mentality.
That's the main difference in attitude, at least if things like Olympic Commentary is anything to go by.
>>67070532
No lie, the last El Classico I watched was one of the worst games I've sern at a top level in a long long time. The game was a mess.

HAHAHAH YES LETS LAUGH AT THE TEAM WHO DESERVES THE TITLE MORE AHAHAHAHAHA GREENTEXT AWAY LADS GOTTA LOVE THE FOXES LMAOOOO LIFELONG LIFELONG IM SUCH A GIANT CUNT
I fucking hate this place. Spurs are genuinely the best team in the league and none of you celebrate the fact. You all prefer the cheating, refballing, scummy cunts in Leicester over us. Just fuck off.
Here's a funny thing though, we'll be fighting for the title next season and where will ''''''based'''''' Leicester be? Fucking midtable where they belong. So enjoy this shitty title win you Leicester cunts, it's the last thing you'll ever win. Can't wait for your tears when your piece of shit club gets liquidated in 10 years.
Please continue with your SO EPIC posts about how '''''shit'''' Spurs are though. It's so fucking hilarious to me because I know that next season you'll be crying and your precious Leicester will sink like a fucking rock. It will literally be worse than Chelsea. Shove your dilly dong up your arse you fox cunts.

....aaaaand now it's already stale.
The once barely visible, now extremely prominent anti-Leicester contingent on /sp/ got me thinking.
What I've come to believe is, the reasons the fans of the established "big clubs" gave for their hatred of Chelsea and Man City(MUH OIL MONEY, MUH NO HISTORY, MUH UNITED EARNED IT) were never really genuine.The real reason they were so bitter towards these "nouveau riche" clubs coming in was the simple fact it upset their little boys club(United, Arsenal, sometimes Liverpool).It was another team stopping their team from winning the league, and they didn't like it.
No fans of big teams ever gave a shit about Fulham buying their way up the English football pyramid because the spending was only enough to get them to the Premier League and remain there, they were no threat to the elite clubs.In fact, I seem to remember most of the country rallying to support Fulham in their great Europa League run.Opposition fans loved "plucky, little Fulham", where they could go and outsing the quiet home support.
Leicester is a wonderful story, people are just pissed off their team isn't winning the league.

Somebody post the manga plot copy pasta.
Americans can't understand Leicester's story simply because it has no equal in american sports. Last season when Leicester were bottom with a dozen games left, they had to start playing better or they'd be fucked. An american team in a similar situation would be better off just losing all the last games rather than try anything
>>67080115
Exactly.
The beauty of English football and the romanticism that exists in hearts of every fan of every club, wether it be Crewe Alexandria, Barry Town or a Sunday league team from Norwich, is that it is always still possible, if you play good enough football, to climb the ranks and end up as champions of England.
Leicester are proving that dreams can come true and that if you battle hard enough and believe, nothing is impossible in the world of English football.

Don't be so dense. I know many americans who have finally started watching soccer and the premier league because of how fascinated they are by the Leicester story.
