I wouldn’t say so, no. I’d argue we won’t see another Leicester winning the league in the next 50 years.
When Leicester won the league, the table was very low in points achieved and ridiculously low goals scored:
72 points would have won the league that season, it’ll be 20 points above that this season and teams like City will score 90-100 goals (our current trajectory after 3 games is 114 goals scored!).
I don’t really look at the league table properly until about a dozen games in, no matter how much fun it’s been laughing at United being bottom of the league in the last week.
Our eleventh and twelfth games are Liverpool then Arsenal away. I’ll look at the table by then and I reckon things will be starting to take shape with a top of the table of City Liverpool Spurs Arsenal, you’ll have Newcastle Brighton Chelsea up there and West Ham and the Rags will have moved up the table n’all.
To have another season like 2015-16 you’d have to replace Pep Klopp Conte and Arteta with managers who had their teams either very unfit or a total lack of a plan and teams who were barely scoring goals.
I thought City were genuinely mediocre that season, we were only 6 points off finishing 8th, we were as close in points to Stoke in 9th as we were Leicester in 1st. City are now nowhere near being remotely mediocre in any department. City will achieve around 90 points, and that’s not a guarantee to win the league. There’s no way a team like Leicester from 2015-16 (don’t forget they were a bottom half side the season before and the season before that they were in the Championship, that’s like Brentford or Leeds winning the league this season) are getting anywhere near 90 points.
