City’s Kompany Set For Another Month Out
Ultimately neither side could find a way through, despite having shared 74 top-flight goals between them this season, and Pellegrini’s charges remain without a win on the road in the Premier League since September.

“We are in a good position and the two teams above us deserve to be above us”.
Another Sagna pass sent Sterling through again and after controlling the ball on his chest his volley was saved by Schmeichel.
After withstanding waves of pressure, Leicester should twice have led in the 40th minute.
A defensive error from Fernandinho gave Jamie Vardy what turned out to be the best chance of the game, as he tore through on goal but blazed over.
But Leicester will now have to reassess their aims for the second half of the season as they continue to last the pace with the big boys.
Vardy and Mark Albrighton both just failed to get a touch to Fuch’s superb low cross that skidded right through the six-yard box.
Joe Hart needed to pull off a magnificent save from a Christian Fuchs shot in the 77th minute to keep Manchester City in the game.
In the end a draw was a fair result.
“Come on you Foxes!” With a few minutes left in the first half, the Foxes converted a couple of Manchester City mistakes into quick chances that, frankly, should’ve been finished. Organised his back line well too.
Leicester abandoned their normal 4-4-2 system and started with Gokhan Inler as an extra midfielder alongside N’Golo Kante and the returning Danny Drinkwater, who was back from a hamstring injury.
Fuchs had a free kick tipped round by Hart as Leicester kept plugging away before Otamendi threw himself theatrically to the ground when barely touched by Huth’s outstretched arm.
Leicester City have concluded an unbelievable year tied first atop the English Premier League after a 0-0 draw with Manchester City at King Power Stadium. “There’s nothing won in December”, he told BT Sport.
As the game went on, Leicester made the game more hard for the Citizens as this exciting contest ended in a surprise stalemate.
“We started the season strongly, but we have not been great over the last 12 games or so”.
He added: “They had some chances and we had some decent chances as well, we’re slightly disappointed, but that’s the way it goes. We need to take victories where we can and enjoy it with our fans”.
Riyad Mahrez, Vardy and Marc Albrighton all pressed high up the pitch and recognised the frailties of the Manchester City defence in the absence of Vincent Kompany.

Meanwhile Claudio Ranieri took pride in his player’s reaction after losing against Liverpool on Boxing Day, their first away defeat this season: “We played well, we created some chances”.
