A FULL week has passed since Leicester City captain Wes Morgan lifted the English Premier League (EPL) trophy up high, and it still hasn't quite sunk in that the Foxes are champions of the most-watched football league in the world.
It's been an unusual and unpredictable season, to say the least, with all the more established teams somehow fluffing with regularity.
Last year's winners, Chelsea, faded from the title picture very early on, while Arsenal tried to muster a late challenge that failed miserably. The two Manchester clubs - City and United - fell far short of their usual high expectations, while fans of a below-par Liverpool have to continue their agonising 26-year wait for a first top-flight championship.
