'There is a good mentality in the squad': Claude Puel hails the attitude of his Leicester players after dramatic late equaliser against Bournemouth

Leicester boss Claude Puel remains proud of the attitude of his players during what has been a trying period for the Premier League club.

The equaliser, which came seven minutes into added time, means Puel's side have not won any of the five Premier League matches since the approach for Mahrez.
