Leicester go TOP of the Premier League after inflicting a SIXTH defeat of the season on Chelsea as strikes from Wilfred Ndidi and James Maddison pile pressure on Frank Lampard

There are few more pleasing sights in English football than Leicester City in full flight. They play brisk, incisive football that brings with it a threat just about every time they have the ball.

Beautifully coached by Brendan Rodgers, the 2016 champions sit top of the Premier League for the second time this season. If they keep key players fit, Leicester can have a say in the destination of this year’s trophy, for sure.

Few teams, on the other hand, will be so compliant as desperate, deteriorating Chelsea. Decent enough with the ball, Frank Lampard’s team were quite awful without it and you simply cannot be that way against a team like Leicester.
