PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE IS THE WORTH OF LEICESTER CITY FANTASTIC SEASON SAYS ALBRIGHTON
Leicester City midfielder Marc Albrighton says the Foxes' "massive transformation" will mean nothing if they don't with the Premier League this season.
With a seven point advantage over closest challengers Tottenham, the Foxes are the bookmakers' favourite to lift the trophy. And the 26-year-old says anything less than a Prem crown won't do.
"It has been going on so long that we keep saying a year ago today," Albrighton told the Mirror.
"Where we were to this, it is a massive transformation. We will never get away from that fact.
"But we have got to concentrate on where we are now. Although it is fantastic it will be worth nothing if we don't see it out."
Given Leicester's familiarity with both the Premier League relegation and title races over the past year, Albrighton said the pressure at the top isn't as intense.
"That was totally different. There was a lot more pressure last season but I haven't felt any pressure this season.
"I can't see why there is any on us. We are in a position no one expected us to be in.
"If we don't go on and achieve something now then don't get me wrong, we would be disappointed.
"We are aiming for the top and if we can achieve that then fantastic but if we don't then it is not a massive loss."
