One of the most memorable stories of the Premier League era was Leicester City upsetting the odds to win the title in the 2015-16 season.
It captured the imagination of football fans everywhere, because it seemed so difficult for anyone outside the ‘Big Six’ to get even close to being champions.

Since taking charge in 2019, Arteta has made a point of reiterating how much he values physicality and the demands he puts on his side to win duels.
But against Brighton, Arsenal were dominated all over the pitch and lost challenges which they would usually be expected to win.

Manchester United defender Harry Maguire is confident Marcus Rashford will have a significant impact at the club this season.
The 28-year-old started his first Premier League game for United in 21 months in the 5-2 victory over Ipswich at Old Trafford, and was one of his side’s main attacking threats.

Jamie Allen will look back on his seven-year Coventry City stint as a “big achievement” when he bids farewell to the Premier League-bound Sky Blues this summer.
Allen has been released by the club after contributing to two promotions during his time at the CBS Arena.
Arriving from Burton Albion in 2019, Allen went on to make 200 appearances for City, but the 31-year-old’s opportunities this past season were restricted
Those gloomy financial clouds will hopefully begin to lift as soon as next summer. That’s because that huge loss from two seasons ago will be in the irrelevant distance from an accounting point of view.
Patel, who has covered the club’s significant debts since his arrival, also revealed in his June letter that Albion started the 2024-25 campaign with the highest payroll of any team not receiving parachute payments.

Swede Elanga dispossessed Fulham defender Ryan Sessegnon before feeding Osula out on the right.

Amorim is right to be cautious – and United fan Frank Ilett would probably be wise not to get his hopes up that the haircut he promised himself – when the team win five games in a row – might only be three weeks away.
As highlighted by BBC Sport in the build-up to the Liverpool encounter, United have not managed a single point in two seasons from their corresponding
