LEICESTER, England -- Three quick thoughts from Leicester's 2-0 win over Everton at the King Power Stadium...
1. A fine start for Puel
After a short, but uncomfortable period considering the implications of relegation, Leicester City are on the rise again. Those who feared that new manager Claude Puel would usher in an era of slow, boring football can relax -- for the moment at least. The Foxes won this game the same way they won the title, with brutal counter-attacks that left their opponents reeling.
Puel's side made all of the early running against an Everton team that really should have known better than to leave so much space behind them that could be exploited.
