    Three Premier League managers this season won trophies. Two of them are no longer Premier League managers.

    ... once he's delivered the Champions League he can go with everyone's blessing <whistle> ... in reality, I don't think any Leicester fan would begrudge him the opportunity to go and manage his country after what he has done for us ... although he has publicly stated that he would like a 7 year contract with us before retiring ... so really hoping Italy do very well at the Euros <laugh>

    Given their manager is going to Chelsea, it makes no difference how they do.

    I can't help but wonder if the media would've pounced on the fact Conte has left Pirlo out of the Italy squad for the Euros if he wasn't about to become Chav manager.

    No he's safe. We were meant to finish 20th so there should be 19 very embarrassed clubs and managers out there so whatever he does he is immortal!

    Exactly it wasn't just between Leicester and Spurs. Spurs just made the best fist of it.

    Them 18 clubs should be embarrassed. Though to be fair most of them like Leicester weren't expected to do much. I'd say Chelsea, city, United, Liverpool and Arsenal who collectively own English football (they think) should have blown Leicester away. Spurs were meant to be dithering around 5th, hoping for 4th. We did brilliantly.

    So basically the old Sky 4 and City should be ashamed.

    Shame on you failures. Well done to the rest for a great above your expectations or as expected season.

    Of course, rather than accept that they royally pissed away a great opportunity this season, Arsenal fans are merely content that they somehow finished above us.

    Says a lot about their mentality, doesn't it?

    There is not much to be happy about that Arse finished above us, but the only consolation I have it that is pissed off Piers Morgan as Wenger will probably stay on now.

    Tbh I felt around 14th-17th as I felt we'd finish above the promoted sides. Most pundits had us to be relegated but 20th was tounge in cheek. Spurs needent be embarrassed but the Mancs, Chelsea, Arse and Liverpool should

    So on the BBC sport website you can now pick Mourinho's starting XI for next season, including Harry Kane and a bunch of other players Man U do not currently own *and are not going to own*. WTF? Seriously, the Tories might be right about the BBC

    I'm sure that even Mourinho won't be allowed to bankrupt the club. Van Gaal tried, but was found out.
