Claudio Ranieri tries to explain Leicester’s perfect Champions League start after their Premier League struggles
The Foxes now have more points in Group G of the Champions League than they have in the Premier League
CLAUDIO RANIERI explains the difference between Leicester playing in the Champions League compared to the Premier League this season.
The Foxes are top of Group G with three points, with a 100 per cent win record in Europe, whilst the champions currently sit in 13th place in the Premier League with only eight points.
Ranieri believes his side benefit from the fact that this season is the first time Leicester have ever competed in the Champions League.
The Italian said: "The difference is because it is the first time we have played in this big competition.
"In my career it's often been the same, when you play in Champions League, your mind is more concentrated.
