#4 The Escape to Glory
Trending
The most well-known footballing fairytale occurred in the 2015/16 season when Leicester City miraculously clinched the Premier League title. But what makes it all the more special is that the Foxes escaped relegation just the previous season. And guess who predicted it? Football Manager!
In early 2015, Football Manager ran a simulation when Leicester were rooted at the bottom of the league table with just 17 points. The simulation saw them finish just above the relegation zone, similar to what happened in reality.
The Foxes had a great business end of the season, in which they won seven of their last nine Premier League outings and finished in the 14th spot.
The next season was, as we all know, madness.
