I know it's all about opinions.....but are you serious??....Newcastle to finish in the top 4 is a greater achievement than Leicester winning it ??.....the mind bogglesYeah, they did and it won't matter one bit to a Leicester fan as it wouldn't to me if we ever won it. If anything knowing the odds were nigh impossible makes it all the sweeter.
It's just every time it's discussed how the Premier League is a closed shop* someone will pipe up with the Leicester example but only 7 teams have won the Premier League and only 4 have won it more than once. Only 11 sides have qualified for the Champions League of which 6 teams have qualified more than 5 times.
Manchester United - 22 times
Chelsea - 21 times
Arsenal - 19 times
Liverpool - 16 times
Tottenham Hotspur - 8 times
Manchester City - 7 times
Frankly, if Eddie is able to get Newcastle to finish in the top 4 then I'd say it's a greater achievement than Leicester winning it that time.
