34 thoughts on “First REACTION to The Leicester City Championship Story!***AGAINST ALL ODDS***”
Leicester City have had quite possibly the most insane and eventful past 10 years any football club could ever really have, in my opinion, and there are so many different stories involved along the way that it would literally be impossible to tell the story in any single YouTube video, let alone one that's ten or so minutes long. The NBC Sports YouTube channel has the full upload of "The Leicester City Story" which is like 45 minutes long and I HIGHLY recommend watching that, even if it's just in your own time, because it's an in-depth look at the year they won the Premier League and some of the key players that contributed to it, but again, that's only just ONE year of Leicester's insane decade, although obviously it's the most insane.
Seriously, from the Watford-Leicester semifinal where they failed to score a pen, then conceded at the other end at the very end of the match and failed to gain promotion to the Premier League…
…to returning to the Premier League in record-breaking fashion after ten years away…
…to becoming the first team in Premier League history to beat Manchester United after going down by two goals, in a wild and famous 5-3 result…
…to their historical "Great Escape," where they went from relegation in 20th place and only 19 points from their first 29 matches at the start of April to safety in 14th place and 41 points with seven wins in their last nine matches by mid-May…
…to overcoming 5000-1 odds and winning the entire Premier League and the very next season after off-season controversies led to a change in manager…
…to competing in the Champions League for the first time ever against European mainstays like Atletico Madrid…
…to the tragedy of the club owner and chairman losing his life in a helicopter accident just outside the stadium after a match…
…to beating Southampton on the road by a score of 0-9 and recording the largest ever away (and joint-largest ever) victory in English top division history…
…to being in position to qualify for the Champions League again for two consecutive seasons, only to fail on the last week each time (seriously, out of the 76 game weeks across those two seasons, Leicester were within the four qualification spots 74 times, and the 2 weeks they weren’t were the final weeks of each season)…
…to winning the FA Cup for the first time in club history and breaking the stigma of being the team that had reached the final the most times without ever winning the trophy…
…all the way through competing in other European tournaments and investing massive money in a new state-of-the-art training complex as well as beginning plans to expand the stadium. And all of this excludes the stories of Leicester's players, such as Vardy, who went from the eighth tier of English football to playing for the English national team, breaking the Premier League record of most consecutive goalscoring matches ("It's eleven, and it's heaven for Jamie Vardy!") and becoming the oldest ever Premier League Golden Boot winner (season's top goalscorer award).
It’s been a wild decade filled with inconceivable highs and depressing lows, and for a club the size of Leicester City, it’s only been magnified that much more. I know Luke was looking for an English team to support and he didn’t want it to be one of the big teams that just dominates through spending unending money, and I really do feel that with its recent history, Leicester might be the club he’s looking for. At this stage they can’t exactly be considered a “tiny” club, but they definitely have a tendency to punch above their weight.
…it’s a shame they’re a bit shit this season, though.
To put into perspective, someone said that jets winning the super bowl was less surprising than Leicester won the premier League. So in NFL itself you can have 50% win rate on regular season an still proceed to playoffs as long as the rest of the teams from the same division had worse records and won the championship as long as you won all playoff games. While in premier League model it is impossible to win the championship with 60% win rate
i think this is what you looking for https://youtu.be/4hLo1hfvyCM <<< The full story Fearless Foxes: Our Story | Leicester City's 2015/16 Premier League Title
You had to witness it to actually realize history was in the making. I remember January 2016 was when I realized Leicester are going to do the unthinkable, and they did. Nothing but the upmost respect for Leicester for slaying the giants in the toughest league.
The side story with the guy who made brokers panicking was funny too, he put some dollars on a win of leicester and during the season at same time that they were writing history, this guy was about to win something so big. Everybody wanted to see this incredible story of Leicester coming true, it was i think the only champion who won the league and "nobody" was angry about the winner.
Can you react to Alan Shearer? He is the premier league all time goal scorer, who despite only ever winning one premier league title, moved to a worse team at the time (From Blackburn rovers to Newcastle United) because it was his boyhood team, playing for them for 10 years only ever winning 1 FA cup with them and yet still being the hero of most recent Newcastle fans. Since retiring, he became manager for Newcastle for two seasons and has become a pundit for the BBC, and you can hear him speak during a few of your videos.
I remember nobody saw this team coming. Even though they're still a top 10 team in the premier league most assumed there a team happy to stay out of regulation and kinda keep staying in the premier league to get a extra years media payout. I think it's like $60 million dollars more of a yearly payout than the championship.
No one and I mean no one saw this coming. Every neutral wanted them to do it. An absolute fairytale and the reason bookmakers no longer offer such long odds on outsiders in football.
One of the most amazing sporting stories in history. David and goliath stuff
Ranieri is the type of manager you get, when you are with the back against the wall, he plays a catenaccio style out of a compact defense. with leicester he had the luck to have some, at the time, highly underrated attackers like Vardy who worked well in his system. he managed 23 clubs in 37 years. he got a bunch of clubs out of bad spots but not always, Watford for example didn't work out. at the moment, he is trying to get a italian team up into serie A, not going too well either.
These are the backbone players of Leicester on that particular season Jamie Vardy He was a factory labour when he was teenager, while most pro players are in football academy Riyadh Mahrez Before joined Leicester, he played in second tier (minor league) french league Ng'olo Kante On 2009 he was working in construction site Kasper Schmeichel Manchester City reject So basically these guys were band of peasants competing against multiple noble band of knights, yet they won the contest. Yeah this is football Cinderella tale
Dutch last names are rather on the nose in many cases to the point that there's a rather popular myth that when last names became a thing the dutch population just gave dumb last names to protest it basically.
Take a video about this , The world is now ruled by one community of people, the world Satanic elite, you can also call them the committee to meet the Antichrist and prevent the 2nd coming of Jesus, Trump called them the deep state, at the moment it consists of about 10,000 people, the main ones there are Rockefellers, Rothschilds, Windsors, Baruchs, they, their ancestors, descendants and other people who enter there have the mark of Lucifer, which, if they bring the antichrist and do not allow the 2nd coming, they will receive eternal life after the x hour, and the rest of humanity, for all the time that they have lived, they won't get anything, They won't stop themselves
That video youre watching is a bit rubbish really. This one is alot better produced – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOEJb5xausQ although 10 minutes doesnt really do it justice.

You could have picked a better Leicester video
His name is Danny Drinkwater, a Manchester United youth team graduate. In case you're wondering.
This is OLD NEWS now mate !
This season isn't going too well for them though.
No one and I mean no one saw this coming. Every neutral wanted them to do it. An absolute fairytale and the reason bookmakers no longer offer such long odds on outsiders in football.
One of the most amazing sporting stories in history. David and goliath stuff
Someone did actually bet £1 on Leicester winning the league that season, and they won £20,000 from it

These are the backbone players of Leicester on that particular season
Jamie Vardy
He was a factory labour when he was teenager, while most pro players are in football academy
Riyadh Mahrez
Before joined Leicester, he played in second tier (minor league) french league
Ng'olo Kante
On 2009 he was working in construction site
Kasper Schmeichel
Manchester City reject
So basically these guys were band of peasants competing against multiple noble band of knights, yet they won the contest. Yeah this is football Cinderella tale
Hi Luke you should check out the invincibles.
Can you do reaction on the football cinema?( goal, hooligan of green street)

Drinkwater is dutch.
Dutch last names are rather on the nose in many cases to the point that there's a rather popular myth that when last names became a thing the dutch population just gave dumb last names to protest it basically.
