5. The best is yet to come

5000-1 outsiders Leicester City are champions. The Premier league has just produced a storyline so preposterous that not even Hollywood’s cheesiest screenplay writer would have dared create it. Safe to say that by the same token, it has once and for all put an end to the debate as to whether or not it is the best league in the world.

And yet even with all that being said, there is an indisputable aura of inevitability that next season will bring an even more gripping narrative. With Leicester and Tottenham in the Champions League, Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, Mourinho potentially with Manchester United, Chelsea’s new chapter under Conte, and the Premier League’s insane £5 billion TV deal set to bring on a new audacious swagger…the best might just be yet come.
