Leicester talking down title chances

Maybe the people say: ‘If my team don’t win, I’m very happy if Leicester win.’ And this is a good thing.

Chinese Teen Pulled From Rubble 60hours After Mudslide
He said the teenager was in stable condition and had undergone surgery at the Guangming New District Central Hospital. He believes his wife was still alive and repeatedly insisted he could show the rescuers her location.

Yet it is the team ethic and the camaraderie that pleases Ranieri most.


Raiders’ Woodson to retire at end of season
San Diego wrestles with an old foe in the Oakland Raiders on Christmas Eve, in what could be the Raiders’ last game in Oakland. Woodson himself started his winery in Napa – just an hour north of Oakland – shortly after being drafted by the Raiders .

They are, unsurprisingly, top of the form table as well, picking up 16 points from 6 games while their recent form on road has been impeccable – 5 wins in 6.


Seven migrant children, six adults drown off Greek island
Another 706 people are known to have died trying to cross the Aegean between the Turkish coast and a number of nearby Greek islands.

Leicester reburied a medieval monarch and then its soccer team came back from the dead to become surprise contenders for the Premier League crown.

“I would sign now a guarantee to stay above Arsenal at the end of the league”.

As the halfway point of the soccer season approaches, the city’s only professional soccer team tops the world’s richest soccer league. Obviously they must have seen something in me, but they knew I was nowhere near the fitness levels required.

Chelsea, the reigning Premier League champions who seemingly rewrote all the rules when Roman Abramovich took over, parted company with Jose Mourinho for a second time after one of the most spectacular collapses in the history of modern football.

The Foxes, beaten just once this season, can cement their position as shock title challengers when they travel to Liverpool on Saturday and then host Manchester City on Tuesday. “If not at the top, very close”. By sacking him! In his place, they brought in Italian Claudio Ranieri, whose lack of experience with small clubs (not to mention generally posthumous aura) made him a unusual fit for Leicester. “The Tinkerman” rarely gets his tactics wrong and is one of the best at allowing his players the opportunity to enjoy their lives while remaining focused on their on-field performances.

Leicester’s consistency is in stark contrast to the erratic results Liverpool have witnessed as a 6-1 battering of Southampton in the League Cup preceded a loss to Newcastle United, a home draw against West Bromwich Albion and an away defeat against Watford.

But Campbell does not believe the time is right for Wenger to stand down – because he and Arsenal are “perfect” together.

Ranieri said: “I’d like to maintain everyone but I understand if somebody wants to go”. The Foxes travel to Liverpool on Boxing Day before entertaining Manchester City at The King Power Stadium three days later.
