You don't always need time to gel with new players. Leicester have 6 new players plus changed manager.

Well done Leicester, never gave up, always believed. 👏🏼
Villa, that's what we need to do. Not switch off because we're not that good!

Jamie Vardy has Leicester fans having a party. Great response from #lcfc. Footage of that steward celebrating wildly could prove popular.

When Leicester counter-attack it's frightening. They're the only team in the world right now that use the Mighty Ducks Flying V Formation.
