I put it to you that players are sometimes judged on their looks. That's why I think Sterling may be more highly rated with this new look

Jamie Vardy missed the best chance of a cagey first half:

Am prepared to bet Vardy will not score another goal this year.

The second half started equally uneventfully, leading the home fans to reflect on a brilliant start to the season:

Usually the player gets the ball when it’s a ‘great tackle’ Aguero goes down in the box…no penalty. #LCFC #MCFC pic.twitter.com/Kin0Zx5mVb

Leicester survived, and one man in particular received all the plaudits:

"

Leicester's N'Golo Kante is such an influential player. A superb athlete who never stops hunting.

"

This dude Kante's still running like the match just kicked-off. Beast.

The game's final bit of entertainment came courtesy of some less-than-impressive theatrics from Nicolas Otamendi:

"

Shame on you, Otamendi. Went down like he was shot, but replays show there was minimal contact.. with his shoulder. pic.twitter.com/HwPkPiI1Yk

BREAKING: Otamendi ruled out for the season!

And that was just about it—a goalless draw taking Leicester level on points with Arsenal at the top of the table, while City move above Tottenham Hotspur into third.
