Leicester winger Riyad Mahrez has labelled the collapse of Tottenham's Premier League title challenge as the funniest moment of last season.
The 25-year-old was named the 2015/16 PFA Player of the Year after enjoying a season to remember as the Foxes completed a remarkable rise from relegation candidates to Premier League champions.
Tottenham had kept pace at the top, but threw away a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 at Chelsea in May to hand Leicester their first league title in their 132 year history.
Mahrez and some of his Leicester team-mates watched the match from Stamford Bridge at Jamie Vardy's house and the Algeria international has revealed what his feelings were on that historic evening.
"The funniest moment [of last season]? I think it was when Tottenham were 2-0 ahead of Chelsea," he told FourFourTwo.
"All the team were at [Jamie] Vardy's house thinking 'we're probably not going to be champions tonight.
"I was like, 'What's the point of coming?!' and then 2-1, 2-2. It was funny."

All this talk of wage structure, does anyone actually know what the upper limit is meant to be? I've read loads of articles over the years and not one mentions it as far as I can see.
Yeah Levy is a tight-arse but £100k a week is still a bargain for someone like Harry Kane in the current market IMO.

According to the Evening Standard article:
Evening Standard said:
Standard Sport understands Kane’s basic wage will fall within Tottenham’s wage current structure and will be similar to the £80,000 a week paid to goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.
Yet it is thought that this deal has been constructed to take Kane into the same bracket as Jamie Vardy and Daniel Sturridge – as long as he meets certain targets. Vardy collects about £120,000 a week at Leicester while Sturridge is paid about £140,000 a week by Liverpool.
