“They are as disappointed as I am, hopefully”. You can lose, but you have to believe that anything is possible.

Labelled “the Tinkerman” from his previous spell in England with Chelsea a decade ago, Ranieri’s return has actually been notable for his lack of changes.

Vardy has revealed that the club are now going through a positive spell as the forward aims to pick up even more points when his side face the Potters this weekend.

Leicester V Aston Villa – view commentary, squad, and statistics of the game live. Why not 11? We can bring a lot of players to the bench and chose between them. I say “seemingly” because I could’ve swore I saw him knocked out for at least a few seconds but Leicester City felt that he “didn’t” have a concussion and left him in for the rest of the game.

“We played well for an hour and couldn’t wrestle the game back”.

Leicester are second in the table, but Ranieri is only concerned about survival. At this level it should be dead and buried, but unfortunately we made unforced errors and it has cost us. This is our goal only at the moment. I think he will be a great player for the future.

Moore, a Bodymoor Heath Academy graduate of the past scored on his league debut back in 2002 but was unable to kick on and fulfil his potential.

And Ranieri reserved some special praise for his latest signing.

‘He’s (Albrighton) in very good condition.

The England midfielder latched onto Erik Lamela’s through ball before dinking over the onrushing stopper to see Spurs record their first Premier League win of the season.

But Ritchie De Laet’s header gave them hope, with his near-post flick headed clear by Ashley Westwood only after the ball had crossed the line.

As a result, he has been sent out on loan to Villa Park this season in order to gain Premier League experience and to finally get back on the pitch playing. I’m gutted for everyone who’s associated with this football club.

STAT: Leicester have now gone nine Premier League games unbeaten (W6, D3) – their best ever run.

“The first goal was a killer because that gave them the lift”. “The only way you stop momentum is by keeping the ball off the opposition and we just turned it over stupidly”, he said. “It was not good enough”, said the Villa boss.
