Gary Lineker is getting excited about Leicester’s hopes after a good start to the season, where have we heard that one before?The Foxes legend has every right to be over the moon with how his local side have begun this campaign, as Brendan Rodgers’ team have lost only once in their opening seven Premier League matches.

The Foxes now sit third in the table behind Liverpool and Manchester City, and Lineker had a message to send to both of those clubs after the Foxes beat Newcastle 5-0.

Lineker clearly has his sights set on another Premier League title for the East Midlands club.

This is quite a strange tweet to interpret. On one hand, Liverpool and Man City are far and away the best teams in the division, amassing a combined 195 points last year.

However, Leicester City have a history of causing these types of upsets. They’re only two points behind Man City, and they’ve got a young and talented squad that could feasibly beat any team in the division.
