That’s why Carra’ gets paid.
The entire football world is still waiting for Leicester City to fade away in the title race but it seems like the Foxes are only going from strength to strength.
Claudio Ranieri’s side returned to the top of the Premier League after a memorable 2-1 win against champions Chelsea at the King Power Stadium.
Once again, it was their fantastic front-two that did the damage as goals from Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy inflicted a ninth league defeat on Jose Mourinho’s side.
The Blues look far from impregnable in defence but they also have problems scoring goals as seen by Diego Costa’s poor form in front of goal so far this season.
Mourinho interesting on Diego Costa. Says the striker has lost so much confidence he's now making virtually all his runs to the wings

The Spanish striker scored 20 goals in his debut campaign at Stamford Bridge but he has only managed to net 4 goals in all competitions so far this season.
At half-time, Carragher was asked to comment on an incident where Costa appeared to be complaining to some of his teamamtes.
Take a look.
Mourinho’s post-match press conference was equally interesting as seen by these tweets that sum it up.
Mourinho criticising his players in public, feeling "betrayed" and writing off top-4 hopes. End-game nearing …

Mourinho: "I want to stay. I hope Mr Abramovich and the board want me to stay."

Listening to Mourinho after tonight's loss at Leicester seemed he was saying: I was brilliant last season, the players are crap this season.

Mourinho says "one possibility" for downfall is last season he "did an amazing job and brought players to a level that is not their level."
