Gareth Barry: Leicester City 'not the team they were this time last year'

Everton midfielder Gareth Barry believes Leicester have lost their fear factor.

The 35-year-old insisted the Toffees were confident of victory even before their 2-0 win at the home of the defending champions on Boxing Day

Kevin Mirallas and Romelu Lukaku scored to earn Everton their first away victory in the Premier League for three months.

Leicester went over a year without losing a home league game but have now lost two of their last four at the King Power Stadium and half of their 18 league games this season.

They won a shock title by 10 points last term but are now just three points above the relegation zone and Barry can tell the difference after Everton secured their first win in Leicester for 19 years.
