Sven: Leicester "deserve" to win the Premier League

Former Leicester manager Sven-Goran Eriksson says "all football fans are hoping" the Foxes win the Premier League title and admits their rapid rise has surprised him.

"The spirit they have is incredible and the pace they have when they start to counter attack is incredible," said the former England manager, who managed the East Midlands club from 2010-2011. "It's not one or two players, it's the whole team."

Eriksson, who was talking to Lee James for Sportsworld, also said the club deserved their success, adding that the owners were motivated by trophies, not just with making money.
