There’s a fine line between genius and stupidity, and this is right on it.
At the start of the season, Leicester were more likely to finish bottom of the league than to reach the top four, but the magic of Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez has them upsetting all the odds.
No one could have seen this coming…well, almost no one. Step forward Twitter user @WillKirwaan_, who will make a cool five grand if the Foxes are top at Christmas.

The 2-1Â victory over Chelsea leaves the Foxes two points clear of second-place Arsenal, while Manchester City are a further point adrift.
Leicester have the worst goal difference of the three, though, so if Will wants to cash in he’ll need Claudio Ranieri’s team to win away at Everton, or for Monday’s meeting between Arsenal and City to end in a draw.
It’ll be a nervous few days for sure.
