Leicester 3, Arsenal 0, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report
Brendan Rodgers fielded a team with a few surprises. Would have thought that Harvey Barnes would start instead of Demarai Gray, but both were dropped to the bench.

West Ham 2, Leicester 2, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report

The odds were even higher than 5000/1, a weekend with Leicester City and meeting Youri Tielemans
To be a Leicester City fan is something special. As a fan from abroad “flying in”, you plan your trips in advance and you have always a route to follow. This time we had several highlights to look forward to. We were invited to a party in Wolverhampton, and at the Wolves nest at Molineux…
