    "What a lovely little backheel by Jamie Vardy. 

    "Leicester have got a totally different attitude.That's lifted the crowd here again - this is more like the energy we've seen from them this season. Aston Villa haven't come out for the second half." 

  2. CLOSE!published at 47 mins

    Leicester 0-1 Aston Villa

    Much better from Leicester! Jeff Schlupp powers on down the left wing and delivers a low cross Jamie Vardy gets to the near post and delivers a cheeky first-time backheel, it has Brad Guzan beaten but drifts into the side-netting.

    Schlupp then shoots wide from long range. Energy in the house. 

  3. KICK-OFFpublished at 45 mins

    Leicester 0-1 Aston Villa

    Back in play. Leicester need a boost. Nathan Dyer has gone extremely wide right, with Riyad Mahrez more central. Marc Albrighton has an instant shot saved by Brad Guzan. 

  4. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 17:03

    Leicester 0-1 Aston Villa

    Here is Nathan Dyer, on for his Leicester debut in place of Shinji Okazaki. 4-4-2 is dead after all.

    By the way Villa fans - seen this?

    Tottenham striker Emmanuel Adebayor has been released from his contract by mutual agreement.  

    Will he be seen at Villa Park any time soon?

    Villa's subs also warming up with some vigour. Tim Sherwood will be delighted with his side's showing so far. More of the same!

  7. Shake it up?published at 16:56

    Leicester 0-1 Aston Villa

    The home side have looked a bit sluggish, and new signing Nathan Dyer is going to be on soon to try and change that. A very thorough warm-up from the former Swansea man.

    Harry, Leicester:   Leicester City are tired. Lots of players hurting from international duty, Jeffrey Schlupp especially. Don't think this game is anything more than a blip.

    Well, now you mention it Ed, I don't particularly like it but it's excusable for a player who has played about four minutes of Premier League football. Fringe so far.

    Jack Grealish played 24 times for Villa last season. Got to be moving down the numbers.

    If Iheanacho plays a lot this season, let's have a number under 30. It's not the NFL.

    Villa on the charge in the as it stands table. Who - if any - out of those clubs will be in trouble at the end of the season?

    "Leicester just aren't showing the same energy and confidence they've had since the start of the season. They seem to have lost their way but Aston Villa have come back from the international break looking a completely different team. They're enjoying themselves." 

  13. HALF-TIMEpublished at 16:48

    Leicester 0-1 Aston Villa

    Jack Grealish's first Villa goal is the difference in a very decent first-half. Villa could have had a couple beforehand as Leicester have been uncharacteristically sluggish for long spells.

    Yes Matt! Let's make it happen. Scott Sinclair can put the number nine shirt away while we're at it.

    Sam Foster:  Tim Sherwood deserves a lot of credit for giving Jack Grealish his chance... England should do the same and quickly!   

    Matt Richards:  Squad number nonsense annoys me too! Bring back 1-11! Or else 25 man squad must have 1-25.

  16. YELLOW CARDpublished at 45 mins

    Leicester 0-1 Aston Villa

    Leicester now forcing the pressure, but Villa are set up to counter well with plenty of pace up top. This is all working out nicely for Tim Sherwood. Leicester winger Marc Albrighton crudely chops down Carles Gil to stop exactly that - and he's booked.

  17. Jack off the markpublished at 42 mins

    Leicester 0-1 Aston Villa

    That's Jack Grealish's first Premier League goal and his first goal for Villa full-stop.

    Leicester look for a quick response and Riyad Mahrez's cross is almost flicked in by the lurking Shinji Okazaki.

    "A fantastic finish from Jack Grealish, he tucked it home through a sea of players. A confident finish from a really confident player. 

    "And he went straight to Tim Sherwood to celebrate. That's no ordinary hug either - he lifted him off the ground. Grealish was hardly used under the previous manager."

    GOAL - Leicester 0-1 Aston Villapublished at 16:39 British Summer Time 13 September 2015

    Jack Grealish (39 mins)

    Well now they do have a goal! Aston Villa into a deserved lead and it's the game's brightest player, Jack Grealish, who has it.

    Leicester can't clear a corner, Carlos Sanchez and Micah Richards both have a swing at it but when the ball rolls out to Grealish on the edge of the box he opens his body out and curls it through a host of bodies and into the net. Not unlike Daley Blind's goal yesterday.

    He celebrates by sprinting over to hug manager Tim Sherwood.

    Villa still on top as we tick towards half-time.

    Now may not be the time to tell you that last season they only scored 31 league goals...
