da betcris： Leicester star Wes Morgan believes that the 2-1 defeat to Arsenal will not dent their confidence in the race for the title, according to reports from the Express.
da bet sport： The Foxes were seconds away from holding on to a brilliant point at the Emirates on Sunday after defending for 40 minutes with just 10 men, but Danny Welbeck rose highest to a Mesut Ozil free kick and scored a last gasp header to give the Gunners all three points.
However, despite the loss, Claudio Ranieri’s men still sit on top of the league table two points above Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, and club captain Morgan is adamant that the loss will not affect their confidence.
Morgan said: “That defeat will not affect our confidence. We have to take heart from that game.
“We’ve shown our endeavour, our togetherness and how well we can stick in there when things go against us.
“Everyone loves an underdog and that’s us at the moment. We’re delighted to have that backing.
“You have to relish and enjoy it. There’s not many people who get to be top and fighting for the title. We’re the type of team where the pressure won’t get to us. We just want to prove how good we can be.
“Our aim at the start of the season was to go off the back of the previous campaign, when everyone saw how we avoided relegation. It was to do more of the same.”
Teammate goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel had a similar attitude, backing the team to bounce back and continue the campaign with the same self-belief that brought them so much success thus far.
He said: “We have only lost three games this season so we will not get bogged down by this, in the same way we do not get too ahead of ourselves if we win. It is a loss and we will get on with it.
“People were maybe getting a little bit ahead of themselves outside of the club – not within.
“But we will keep going. Why shouldn’t we bounce back? It is a loss, we move on and we will have the same attitude.”
Leicester will host struggling Norwich City in their next league game on the 27th of February.
