1. Leicester City

You probably guessed this was coming. For good reason, too. Leicester City have been incredibly well run, from the very top of the club to the bottom. The owners are willing to invest; the scouts find hidden and talented gems; the manager implements a clear playing style.

Leicester City have gone from strength to strength in recent years. Safely a mid-table side only a few years ago, club executives have shown the desire and ambition to challenge for titles. This ambition paid off as Leicester secured a 1-0 FA Cup final success over a rejuvenated Chelsea side.

Brilliant recruitment and selling of players has led their push for the top four year after year. Caglar Soyuncu has developed into a stalwart at the back and Wesley Fofana, though expensive, has solidified an already firm defense.
