Claude Puel: 'Leicester City must move on from Southampton win'

Manager Claude Puel says that Leicester City must focus fully on their upcoming games rather than taking 'too much satisfaction' from thrashing Southampton.

By Darren Plant, Senior Reporter | 15 December 2017

Manager Claude Puel has admitted that Leicester City need to build on their recent results in the Premier League.

Since Puel's arrival at the King Power Stadium, Leicester have won five of their eight matches in the top flight, including a 4-1 victory at Southampton on Wednesday night.

The Foxes are one of the form teams in the division, but Puel has acknowledged that he faces a "challenge" to maintain the club's results and performances over the Christmas period.

The 56-year-old told reporters: "We must not be too satisfied about this game [against Southampton]. A good result, good play, but important to continue this work.

"We started a busy period. It was a good challenge to see the possibilities and performance of other players. We cannot play every game with the same players.

Leicester play host to Crystal Palace in the East Midlands on Saturday.
