    Stay up to date with all the latest from the King Power Stadium in our live blog…
    AS IT STANDS
    Very good reading for Arsenal fans, especially as they were bottom of the table after three games.

    WAXING LYRICAL
    BT Sport pundits Emile Heskey and Martin Keown are full of praise for Aaron Ramsdale’s performance today – and why not.
    Heskey: “He was fantastic today. Not just with the saves he made but in distribution as well. A lot of Arsenal’s play in the first half came from his distribution.”
    Keown: “He has stood up and his character has been outstanding. When he was called upon today he was outstanding.”
    STREAK GOES ON
    Seven in a row unbeaten for Arsenal now – only Man City (8) and Liverpool (19) are on longer Prem unbeaten streaks.
    They’re up into fifth place in the table.
    FT: LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    And there’s the final whistle. Three points for an very impressive Arsenal side.
    They were quicker out of the blocks than Leicester and put them to the sword in the first 20 minutes.
    And a very resolute defensive display against a really good attacking team as well will please Arteta.
    Special mention to Aaron Ramsdale. Special performance from the Arsenal goalkeeper.
    .Credit: EPA
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    90, FIVE minutes of added time.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    87, Leicester are running out of puff now and Arsenal are also home.
    They had numbers breaking on the counter-attack, too a minute ago and want to make this 3-0.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    84, Change for Arsenal as Pepe comes on to replace Saka.
    Another very good afternoon for Saka and he takes the applause from the away end as he jogs off.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    81, The home fans aren’t happy as Odegaard goes down and the referee stops play while he receives treatment.
    Plenty of frustration inside the stadium at the moment.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    77, Arsenal have just taken the sting out of the home side a bit.
    But a goal now sets up a grandstand finish. Leicester have to keep on coming.
    .Credit: Reuters
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    74, CHANCE for Barnes with the header, but it’s agonisingly wide of the far post again.
    Lovely cross from Tielemans and Barnes flicked his header towards the far corner, but just wide of it.
    Yellow card for Vardy as well for catching Ben White with a slightly late attempt to win the ball.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    71, CHANCE for 3-0, but Schmeichel denies Aubameyang at the far post from point-blank range after a corner from the left.
    Another change for the Foxes as Daka replaces Maddison in a final throw of the dice.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    69, First yellow card of the game and it’s for Jonny Evans as he wrestles Aubameyang to the ground.
    Arsenal just politely enquiring whether that was a clear goal-scoring opportunity. Yellow card is the verdict.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    66, Tielemans with the ball in towards Vardy… but he can’t get his header on target.
    That was a chance by Vardy’s standards from 10 yards out.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    62, Barnes is in this time! And Ramsdale spreads himself to make the save again.
    Brilliant from the Arsenal goalkeeper, he’s having quite a day.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    60, Crowd are really getting behind the team now.
    Arsenal need to weather this storm, Leicester are playing much better.
    .Credit: Reuters
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    58, Vardy with a backheel to Lookman, who gets his shot away from a tight angle.
    But he can’t get it past the massive frame of Ramsdale.
    Good chance, good save.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    58, A change for Arsenal and I think it’s because Lacazette is still getting back to full fitness.
    He’s off and replaced by Odegaard, so a like for like change.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    55, Tielemans with a lovely ball into Thomas… but his shot is jussssst wide.
    That was close. Thomas found some space on the left of the penalty area and prodded his shot towards the far corner.
    Unfortunately for him it’s just rolled wide of the far post.
    Rodgers applauds, better from his team.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    53, And Barnes with a half-chance, but he scuffs his volley wide.
    Good spring forward on the break and Vardy found Barnes with the cutback to the edge of the area, but his shot was wide.
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    50, Barnes already looking more lively than any Leicester player did in the first half.
    He’s going up against Tomiyasu down the left hand side and swung in a dangerous cross just now that nobody was on hand to attack.
    .Credit: Getty
    LEICESTER 0-2 ARSENAL
    47, It’s Arsenal who have started faster again and Smith Rowe is almost in behind.
    Leicester are going to leave a few more gaps at the back as they press on and the likes of Saka and Aubameyang could see more joy.
    PEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPP
    And we’re back underway with the second half.
    CHANGES
    Two of them for Leicester at the break as Rodgers looks to get back into this game.
    Barnes and Lookman are on, Amartey and Iheanacho off.
    YOUNG STARS
    It’s been said a couple of hundred times before, but how vital are Saka and Smith Rowe to Arsenal?
    Here’s how vital…

    WHAT A SAVE
    Here it is again in all it’s glory from Aaron Ramsdale.

    BT Sport accidentally use FAKE Man Utd crest for coverage of Atalanta comeback as eagle-eyed fans spot ‘leaked’ logo

    BT SPORT were caught out after they used a FAKE Manchester United crest for the coverage of their Champions League clash against Atalanta on Wednesday night.The Red Devils produced an impressive comeback to recover from 2-0 down to beat the Serie A side 3-2 thanks to a late Cristiano Ronaldo header.
    This is the logo which was used by the BT Sport Football app
    This is the official Manchester United logoCredit: Getty Images
    But some eagle-eyed football fans spotted the mishap from broadcasters BT during their updates of the game.
    Instead of using the official Man Utd crest, the BT Sport Football app actually used an emblem from Design Crowd’s unofficial Manchester United Logo Contest in 2013.
    The fake badge looks incredibly similar to the real club logo but with some subtle changes, namely the shape of the middle section, and the style of the footballs on either side.
    After creating the unofficial crest eight years ago, the designer said: “The Manchester United logo is one of soccer’s most recognized logos, therefore, I tried to keep most components similar.
    “Perhaps fans do not really want a totally new logo, so instead, I have just modified and created an ‘upgraded’ one.”
    Bizarrely, this is not the first time this has happened to Man Utd.

    Back in 2016, the club used another logo from the unofficial contest to promote a Deadpool film.
    Meanwhile, on the pitch it was a dramatic night at Old Trafford for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side.
    Under pressure following a poor run in the Premier League, the Red Devils went into half-time trailing 2-0 as some of the crowd booed them off at the break.
    But second half goals from Marcus Rashford and Harry Maguire got them back into the contest.
    And Ronaldo produced another European moment late on as he headed in the 85th minute winner to hand Solskjaer a second win from three Champions League games so far this season.
    Next up for United is a home game against fierce rivals Liverpool on Sunday. More

    Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury: Date, UK start time, live stream, TV channel and undercard for blockbuster clash

    JAKE PAUL is set for his return to the ring toward the end of the year as he prepares for battle with Tommy Fury. Fury, half-brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson, has called for a clash with YouTube sensation Paul for months.

    And now he will finally get his chance, as SunSport recently revealed the pair are due to clash in a December bout after a breakthrough in negotiations.
    Paul last fought in August, beating Tyron Woodley by split decision, while Fury outpointed MMA fighter Anthony Taylor on the undercard.
    Paul vs Fury will represent the former’s first dalliance with a fully-fledged pro boxer in his short career so far.
    And although Fury has predominantly fought boxers throughout his career, many regard Paul to be one of his toughest tests yet.
    When is Paul vs Fury?

    What channel is it and can it be live streamed?

    Although a TV channel has yet to be confirmed, it’s expected Paul vs Fury will be shown live on BT Sport Box Office.
    BT Sport Box Office broadcasted Paul vs Woodley in August and they already have an afinity with Fury through his promotional contract with Frank Warren.
    You can live stream events on BT Sport Box Office from the app, which is available for download onto your mobile or tablet device.
    Paul vs Woodley cost £16.95, but it’s likely Paul vs Fury could set you back £19.95.

    Paul vs Fury FULL CARD
    Undercard to follow…

    What has been said?
    “This is my official response to Tyson Fury,” Paul said after Tyson told Tommy he should change his name if he loses to Paul.
    “He just said that if his little brother ‘Timmy’ Fury loses to me that he will make him quit boxing and he’s gonna have to change his last name.
    “He will no longer allowed to be Fury. So you know me, I’m a betting man I like to make bets. So I’m putting my money up right now. Tommy, if you beat me I will give you an extra $500,000.
    “However, if you lose you have to change your last name for one year to Tommy ‘Fumbles’. Deal or no deal? I’m putting my money up. Sign, seal, deliver it.”
    “This is an easy fight for me. A real easy fight,” Fury said. “I’ve been doing this job since I was 7.”
    “He’s not a boxer. He’s gonna see that when we fight.
    “I will end his boxing career. There’s no more Jake Paul after we fight. That’s it.” More

    Glenn Hoddle reveals ‘it was tough to come back’ to BT Sport studio where he nearly died after birthday heart attack

    AS one of the greatest passers of his generation, Glenn Hoddle made many great returns.But none were ever as daunting or harrowing as this.

    The Tottenham and England legend did not know if he would ever be able to go back to the TV studio where he suffered his near-fatal cardiac arrest.
    His heart stopped for at least 60  seconds when he collapsed during a live BT Sport broadcast on his 61st birthday, on October 27, 2018.
    After being given CPR by sound supervisor Simon Daniels, Hoddle was rushed to hospital where he underwent a quadruple heart bypass.
    Almost exactly three years on, the pundit’s return to the studio is captured in a new BT Sport documentary on his life, due to be screened next week.
    And as Hoddle went back to the place where his life almost ended, he had to ask for filming to be halted as he understandably became overcome with emotion.
    Speaking to SunSport in the same studio, he said: “I knew it was going to be hard but it was probably harder than what we see in the documentary.

    “Did I think about not doing it? Good question.
    “It was tough coming back here. To come back to this point wasn’t easy. A lot of people speak about where we were born.
    “You say the place and whether it was at home or in a hospital, whatever.
    “But you very rarely get to talk about, or see again, the place you might have died.
    “And there is a spot a few yards over there and that is nearly where I went.
    “If it wasn’t for Simon who saved my life, I would have died that day.
    “So it was tough to come back here. Am I pleased I did it? Now I am.
    “But I was only pleased after I had done it.”
    I was very lucky to be here in this studio, so it makes you look at your life completely differently.Glenn Hoddle
    The 63-year-old, now back on-screen as regularly as before, admitted he did have second thoughts about coming back.
    He said: “There was a time before when I was asking myself why I was putting myself through this.
    “Growing up as a young footballer and then as a professional, there are many adversities you have to overcome.
    “You have to be strong-minded and go into that mode.
    “That was never really me as a person but I knew I had to do that to make it in football.

    “So I became an actor, in many ways. And I possibly had to do the same to get back into the BT Sport studio.
    “I wasn’t looking forward to doing it.
    “I can’t say I enjoyed it but I was happy I did it. In some ways, it has helped me.”
    Hoddle insisted making the documentary also helped.
    He added: “Incidents like this do change your life.
    “My outlook on life was always a bit different . . . well not different, it was just what it was.
    “I don’t believe we are here and that’s it. I do believe that we go on anyway.
    “But when you’re that close to it, you realise there are so many facets to it that were fate or luck or good fortune, however you want to put it.
    “I was very lucky to be here in this studio, so it makes you look at your life completely differently.”
    Glenn Hoddle: Extra Time airs next Tuesday on BT Sport 3 at 10.30pm.
    The programme looks at all of his life and career.
    I am proud of the 53 caps I won — although had I been from another country, I probably would have won 153Glenn Hoddle
    From his playing days at Spurs and Monaco and with England, to his career as a manager.
    He remains one of the most technically gifted footballers this country has ever produced.
    Yet criminally, having played in the long-ball 1980s, he won just 53 England caps.
    Hoddle said: “It was ‘Get the ball forward as soon as possible’ and that was hard for a creative player.
    “I go back to the era before mine in the 70s — Alan Hudson got two caps. He was a wonderful footballer.

    “Tony Currie, Peter  Osgood… there were lots of great players just overlooked.
    “I love to see the way football is played now.
    “I am proud of the 53 caps I won — although had I been from another country, I probably would have won 153.”
