Marc Albrighton: 'Claudio Ranieri has brought fresh ideas to Leicester City'

Claudio Ranieri has brought "fresh ideas" to Leicester City, says Foxes winger Marc Albrighton.

Leicester City winger Marc Albrighton has praised the Foxes' new manager Claudio Ranieri after the Italian's first game in charge ended with a 4-2 win over Sunderland.

Goals from Jamie Vardy, Albrighton himself and a Riyad Mahrez brace sealed all three points for Leicester, despite a late Sunderland fightback.

"Ranieri has come in with fresh ideas to add to the way we were playing. He didn't want to change too much but he has new ideas and we are taking them on board," Albrighton told BBC Sport.

"It is too early to say what the season will hold but if we can take confidence and pride in the way we play we will do well."

Leicester City continue their Premier League season when they face West Ham United at Upton Park next Saturday.
