The last time Leicester were top of the Premier League

“It’s a joy to play in that team”. However the 2013/14 season brought about a reverse in his form.

They don’t have to be British, I don’t get that argument, just a willingness to run, fight, and not give up, would be a start. Form that would have any fan planning next season’s trips to other Championship clubs. But this was a miracle. Can Tottenham reached the promised land of a top-four finish and a place in next season’s UEFA Champions League? It signified one of the greatest escapes in Premier League history. But without Vincent Kompany and David Silva, Manchester City is vulnerable, and other teams bite at the chance to snatch points from the weakened Premier League power.

After another disappointing result, Arsenal missed another opportunity to become league leaders and slid all the way down to fourth in the EPL Table after both Leicester City and Manchester United won their matches. I’m not sure what he said to the players after plodding onto the pitch at 16:55, but whatever it was, I doubt it was much help at that point.

Spurs are on a roll, and Harry Kane is scoring freely again. Last season, the Foxes had lost seven of their opening 13 games of the season to languish in the lower reaches of the table while Chelsea were on their bike towards establishing a domineering lead at the top of the table. Injuries to any of Seamus Coleman, John Stones, James McCarthy and Ross Barkley could have a major effect on the Toffees’ season, but Lukaku is capable of bloodying the noses of any defender you care to mention, something which simply cannot be said of Arouna Kone. What does the future have in store for Vardy?

Seven years on, things have barely evolved for Ranieri; Leicester’s calling was one out of necessity, to instill a wiser head to do away from the politically rash and brazen Nigel Pearson.

Whilst the team undoubtedly has ability going forward, defensive reinforcements in January are an absolute must if we are to get out of this mess, Mbemba can’t do it all on his own can he?

Between those games though he also played for England against San Marino where he failed to score. Perhaps the weight of too many tournament failures will not weigh on Vardy’s shoulders like it has done, and continues to do so for so many English players. Not one outfield player was signed by Wenger in the summer transfer window. Chelsea are in desperate need of goals with their expensive offence struggling in front of goal.

Gary Neville challenged red-hot Leicester City forward Jamie Vardy to prove another point when his side face bigger clubs in coming matches.

“It’s about hard work and the players that I’ve got around me getting me into positions where I’m able to put the ball in the back of the net, it’s as simple as that”, Vardy told Sky Sports.
