 | Johnny Evans on Lester`s odds for title: We have to wait for the games around Christmas12-11-2019 |
Leicester defender Johnny Evans said it was too early for his team to be considered a contender for the title, despite an impressive 2-0 win over Arsenal. The 2016 champions have climbed to second place in the standings at the moment and remain there after defeating Manchester City Liverpool 1:3.
Goals from Jamie Vardy and James Madison at King Power Stadium have secured the sixth win in their last seven games, their only defeat of the interim Liverpool leader in this series.
It is curious that now under the leadership of Brandon Rogers they have one point more than their assets at the same time in the 2015/2016 season, when they won their sensational title. But Irish defender Johnny Evans refuses to answer the challenging questions, explaining how busy the winter program is.
`I don`t think our chances can be weighed before and after Christmas in the same way, ` Evans told reporters. `We`ve shown that we can win battles. Now we just have to keep doing what we`re doing so far and see whereWe have good confidence, we are showing good games during this period, but we really have to wait for the games around Christmas, which is the test for each team, said the experienced defender. The next five fox games are against the last five teams in the standingsbefore the fights with Liverpool begin againand then with champions Manchester Siti- ever in December.
