The revelation of the Premier League won again. This time his victim was the defending champion , and climbed to the top of the league English.

Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez This are the names of each match Leicester City and now could not be otherwise . Both maintain his scoring pace. Vardy opened the scoring against Chelsea but not only starred for his goal, but for injuring Blue Star. Defeat those of Jose Mourinho that evidence, once again, the lack of attitude, skill and performance of the workforce as a whole.

The worst news for the London club is not defeat but the injury of Eden Hazard . Vardy input in the first half silenced all fans of Chelsea until the worst was confirmed. I had to leave the pitch injured by a sore hip that was only the harbinger of the fateful night that he would live this equipment.

Just three minutes later the change, Vardy opened the account . A cross between plants with adequate power and placement, so that the front fusile to Thibaut Courtois literally unopposed. With the match already on track, they left the break but the second part still give more excitement to shock.

Mourinho tried to reverse the situation exhausting their changes in the second half and was one who pulled one back, but was insufficient. Loic Remy put the final 2-1 in the mail to make up the result . In vain the Blue effort facing no opposition from the staff throughout the 90 minutes. In fact, Diego Costa protested their peers in both Vardy his team was 'asleep'.

Drop shadow already beginning to glimpse at Stamford Bridge . Mourinho is not being able to lift the slump that dragged from earlier this season but coach insists on claiming that the results are due to bad luck.

The surprising Leicester has returned to the top spot, two more than Arsenal and three points on Manchester City, backed by stellar couple who are shaping this season Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy, authors of many that the home team ahead twice.

English, top scorer in the Premier with 15 goals, finished off the network in the first part of the Algerian center, who beat in the second half to Thibaut Courtois with a perfect thread to put the 2-0 on the scoreboard. With the entry of Pedro Rodriguez and Cesc Fabregas, both alternate boot, Chelsea improved, but did not help to claim the draw.

The Canaries striker left his marker and put a pinpoint cross to the head of Loic Remy , who scored at will and gave hope to his team in the absence of a quarter hours. However, the team coached by Jose Mourinho had no strength to more and gave his ninth league defeat.

His first reaction was that I could not but wanted to try. Then he said he could not and it was his decision. It is clearly injured. I have time to understand what injury was. He tried but felt he could not. "

The team's performance is not as expected. Faced Leicester fell again after losing start and go 2-0 on the scoreboard in the second half. "We were the best durtante a maximum of 30 minutes, but they were an hour. When one of your players does not reach the level that is able to provide, it is hard to see."

The coach of Chelsea also spoke about his continuity at the helm. It is showing blunt about his decision, and hopes that the president supports him. "I want to continue. I hope that Abramovich and the board want to continue".

The level shown by the team is not ideal for the coach. Mourinho hopes his players are used as they do in training. He complains of what happens on the field. "I know no other way to work at the highest level as I do every day. In training, I have no complaints. There are differences between workouts and parties. "
