But nothing was going to rain on this Leicester parade. His manager Claudio Ranieri stated that the dashing winger still needs to learn Leicester’s style. They have one point from two games as they have drawn one and lost one. It’s good because after the worldwide break there is another tough match against Liverpool. “We are just delighted to get the three points”. Of course some season a little more, some season a little less, but the goalscorer never forgets the way. The goalscorer always scores goals.

“Of course it is important to score a goal for strikers because it is their life but for me it is important that the performance impress a lot and the first half was very, very outstanding for us”. Swansea’s next match will be at home to Chelsea on September 11th, and the Welsh side must do everything they can to try and get something out of what will be a tough game. It was like water polo!
Leicester’s world has transformed dramatically over the past 12 months and the Champions League draw was a moment to savour.
“The internationals can go away, hopefully get some minutes in and we can start preparing for the next game”.
Amartey came in as a replacement for the injured Nampalys Mendy in Leicester’s 2-1 victory over Swansea on Saturday.
The Premier League title holders have been slow off the mark this season, losing their opening fixture against Hull before being held to a goalless draw against Arsenal. Danny Drinkwater’s lofted pass sent Vardy clear and he raced past Jordi Amat to fire in off the post.
Swansea manager Francesco Guidolin hopes to complete a deal to sign Barnsley centre-half Alfie Mawson before the transfer window closes on Wednesday. Playing at a high tempo and looking much more like the Leicester of last season, the home team pinned Swansea back and kept probing for the breakthrough.
Wayne Routledge has created nine chances in this season’s Premier League – more than any other player, prior to this weekend. The second, however, saw him haul Vardy down and pick up a yellow card in the process. It’s OK for me. Now I speak with both the lads.
Summer signing Ron-Robert Zieler replaced him to make his debut for the club.

It was a unusual ending to a game that finished in farcical conditions, with the incessant rain causing the ball to get stuck in puddles of water on a surface that was close to unplayable in the final five minutes. Leicester played very well, they were strong like last season.
