Foxes promise no let-up

Leicester's Danny Drinkwater has insisted there will be no change in the club's approach as they eye a remarkable Premier League title success.

The Midlands club were 5,000/1 outsiders to be crowned champions of England before the season started.

Yet they now lead England's top flight by seven points from second-placed Tottenham Hotspur and head into this weekend's match at home to West Ham needing just three wins from their final five league games this season to complete a stunning title success. Foxes manager Claudio Ranieri has fostered a strong bond within the squad at the King Power Stadium, but Drinkwater -- one of several Leicester players to have gained England recognition on the back of the club's performances this season -- said there was no great mystery to the team's unity.

"There isn't a secret to the dressing-room camaraderie, it's just that we're a bunch of lads that get along," said the 26-year-old former Manchester United trainee.

"We're all willing to work hard for each other on the pitch and it shows by how well we graft out results," he added, with Jamie Vardy's late double sealing a 2-0 victory against Sunderland last time out.

"We're guaranteed a top-four place and that's massive," the midfielder explained.
