Claudio Ranieri wants Jamie Vardy to shine vs Gunners

Leicester City and Arsenal are still searching for their first Premier League wins of the season after sharing a 0-0 draw on Saturday, with the champions left fuming after two penalty appeals were denied.

Arsene Wenger was also said to be in the hunt for N’Golo Kante, who did leave the Premier League champions, but opted to sign for rivals Chelsea instead. Not only for Riyad but for all my players.

Meanwhile, Arsenal is coming off a hard-fought 3-4 defeat to fellow contender Liverpool FC at their home ground of Emirates Stadium last Sunday, Daily Mail Online reported. A year ago sometimes I overplayed him a little bit. “I can not answer for him”.

They only lost three games all season and two of those defeats were inflicted by Arsenal, who ended up finishing behind the Midlands club in second spot.

Ranieri shifted from his safety-first stance to issue his team a points target that surpasses last season’s 81, a tougher task after losing the opening match to Hull.

Claudio Ranieri believes Leicester star Jamie Vardy is ready to land another body blow on Arsenal. Last year, we won the league.

Should they fail to win against Leicester, it will be very hard for Arsene Wenger to placate fans, who are already on his back following a lack of transfer activity this summer.

“If you consider the number of goals and assists he had, he had the best combination in the league”.

“What matters is that once you commit somewhere you give 100 per cent, that is what it is to be professional, he has chose to stay at Leicester and I respect that fully”.

It was a huge coup for Ranieri after the England forward scored 24 goals last season to propel them to their shock Premier League title. Now it’s important to stay together. We lost the first match [2-1 against Hull] and now we have to fight to get something good.
