Time to play 'spot the underdog' in this crazy Premier League season

You don’t hear a lot about ‘The Tinkerman’ anymore. But then you don’t hear much about ‘The Special One’ either.  

So, at least in terms of reality eclipsing reputation, it’s honours even between Claudio Ranieri and Jose Mourinho, as Leicester City prepare to host Chelsea on Monday night.

But in almost every other way, their respective positions in the Premier League make this managerial head to head look like a particularly fanciful version of ‘Stars In Their Eyes’, with old Claudio telling Matthew that tonight he’s going to be Jose Mourinho while, plaintively, Jose declares that he only wishes he could be Jose Mourinho too.
