The Foxes secured a crucial 3-1 win at Manchester City on Saturday to build up a five-point advantage over Tottenham and Arsenal, who are level on 48 points in second and third respectively.
Claudio Ranieri and Leicester City have climbed heights they would never have dreamed of this season and they can not look down.
Celebrity fan and club shareholder Morgan believes that only Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez would be guaranteed a place in Leicester’s first-team.
Leicester’s Leonardo Ulloa claims anything is now possible after the unexpected Premier League leaders sensationally thrashed Manchester City to establish themselves as title favourites. “For me the important thing was that they all ran hard as I had seen them do towards the end of last season”. “It’s fair to give the merit they have, they’re playing well”, he further said.
However, what makes the title chase really interesting for the rest of the pack is the fact that the Foxes have some really big matches left, against the likes of Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea. Of course, they are nervous but it doesn’t matter to me.
We were very concentrated though and we wanted to try to win without pressure.
“Hopefully now we can take away this momentum and come away with a victory (over Leicester) as well”, midfielder Aaron Ramsey said, per Neil McLeman at the Daily Mirror.
“We are sitting pretty and I want to play in Europe”, he added. A lot of us have played in the lower leagues and we are in the Premier League now.
Leicester’s lead is not enough of a cushion to ensure the title.
“There are other players in that position but I think he is showing he can be of incredible value to any squad, and clearly for his national team, he could be a real help”.

“The spirit is fantastic, but we said this from the beginning of my moments here in Leicester. There is a fantastic dressing room”.
