SQUAD STILL UNITED BEHIND FOXES BOSS

LEICESTER winger Demarai Gray insists the Foxes are still behind boss Claudio Ranieri despite their season unravelling.

The champions’ title defence is in tatters and they are just a point above the Premier League relegation zone.

S u n d ay ’s 3 - 0 h o m e defeat to Manchester United was their fourth straight t op-flight l oss without scoring and Leicester are yet to net in 2017.

Kasper Schmeichel branded their season “embarrassing” following the game while reports have suggested dressingroom unrest despite last year’s improbable title win.

But Gray says the squad remain united with Ranieri, who led them to the Premier League crown last May despite being 5,000-1 outsiders.

“Yeah, of course,” he said. “We’re all together, we’re all behind each other. We have to back each other in the changing-room.

“We’ll stay together, get back on the training ground, work on what we need to and keep doing our best on the weekends.”

Leicester go to fellow strugglers Swansea on Sunday with t he hosts below them on goal difference and j ust two points separating the bottom six teams — and Gray knows the game at the Liberty Stadium is vital.

“It’s massive. The lads have already said we understand how big that game is,” said the England U/21 international.
