Leicester City's 2015/16 title is the greatest upset in English football history — 5000/1 outsiders at the start of the season, champions by ten points. Claudio Ranieri's team thrived on a simple, devastating formula: defend deep, win the ball, and release Jamie Vardy in behind. Vardy scored in a record 11 consecutive Premier League games, and Riyad Mahrez was voted PFA Player of the Year.
The engine of the miracle was N'Golo Kanté, whose ball-winning covered the pitch of two men, alongside Danny Drinkwater's distribution. Wes Morgan and Robert Huth formed an immovable centre-back pairing in front of Kasper Schmeichel, and Marc Albrighton's crossing balanced Mahrez's cutting inside. In 38-0, Leicester 15/16 has a lower average rating than the super-club squads — but Vardy, Mahrez and Kanté are elite draft prizes hiding in plain sight.
