is that the the only reason you think their performance will crash? and burn? are you really that naive?
remember this run of form started last season, last year, round about now really... out of nowhere.under a different manager,with a different footballing philosophy.

lets just look a little closer at the "every one of their squad has given 110% for 90 mins every single game " comment...
last season they were shit.till april. then they were unbeatable.then they sacked their manager. and still they were unbeatable.
has the fairytale evaporated yet mate?

Let's get it right they play Sunday league like football they have a center forward that has been diving for penalties all season and getting them! They have 2 big center halfs that have been fouling opposition players from corners all season! I thought I was watching a rugby team when they came to our place corners were like a scrum and they continually played for touch deep in our half! I can confidently predict they won't make top 6 next season!

why do you think that nobody knew their players were any good before this season started...?

Because they were a struggling team last season & nobody ws interested in anything they did. They may be able to keep the team together next season because of the new tv money but in years gone by the likes of Liverpool Utd etc would rip them apart & they'd end up with Charlie Adam & Adebayor.

They will find out that being champions is harder than it looks

Do you think their fans will give a shit. This is beyond their wildest dreams! I really hope they win it next week at the swamp. Would love that!

I wonder how many of the bottom half teams attempt a Leicester next year. I have a feeling 5 or 6 sides down there might attempt to mimic Leicester's play style next year. Buying young players who will run for 90 minutes, wouldn't surprise me if a lot focus on fitness training all summer and then make sure they have a couple of creative players up front to make the difference.

Plenty were happy when we won it in 2012, breaking the monopoly of the previous 15 years.

I'm happy for them to win it, its good for football, I hope West Ham get 4th too, (not at our expense obviously).
