Leicester City will be ready on time

Leicester City may have not had enough in them to be able to beat Liverpool, but they were mostly up to the challenge for the better part of 90 minutes, and that’s still good at this time of the year when you are playing a top side.

With a few more pre-season games to play, this team will also get better as they are made to play more high-intensity games, as indeed they did against the Reds. More additions, a bit more effort, and they’ll be ready for the Premier League.

Next up for Leicester City are Luton Town at Kenilworth Road on July 26
