Table-topping Ranieri still plays down Leicester chances
The Blues fired back through Mirallas and pushed for an equaliser but their soft centre let them down again.

“Then, when I arrived here at Leicester, he was the first to send me a welcome message”.
There are also grounds for optimism for City supporters, whose side are now six adrift of Leicester, as their run to the title in 2013-14 saw them down in third after 17 fixtures – could history repeat itself?
The game was 10 minutes old before the first real threat was posed as Leicester’s Marc Albrighton fired in a low cross that Okazaki reacted to quickest but his flicked effort flew over Tim Howard’s crossbar. It looks like we may be entering a new era in the Premier League, sooner rather than later.
The festive period has traditionally been a strong time for United, as it tends to be the time of the season where they really make a push for the title. “We will just carry on playing, carry on winning and see how far we can go”. Everton are a good team, they move the ball so quickly and we had to be concentrated to make sure we didn’t leave them much space.
Martinez now needs to ring the changes to a side has been largely unchanged for four matches now but has only delivered three points from the 12 available.
The England global undoubtedly brings more leadership to the central defence where two young centre-halves continue to perform well enough individually but who aren’t cutting it as an effective and watertight partnership and are being punished for any lapses.
Leicester’s charge is being spearheaded by red-hot forwards Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez, who have smashed 28 goals between them already. They have the best goalscoring threat in the league and they are the best team on the counter-attack.
“When we achieve 40 points we’ll stop for one second and have a meeting”.
“They are decisions you rely on the referee”.
And Ranieri insists his players need to stick to what has got them this far if they are to remain successful.

They aren’t the first or last to compliment this side but Leicester knew that for all the problems Everton would cause them, the Blues would also offer up chances.
