Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger on Sunday said that he believes all neutral fans want Leicester City to lift the English Premier League trophy this season.

The Foxes moved five points clear at the top of the points table having won 3-1 at Manchester City on Saturday.

"Of course. And it's natural. It's normal," Wenger was quoted as saying by ESPNFC when asked if the whole country was behind Leicester.

"The advantage they have until the end of the season, apart from our fans and the City fans and Tottenham fans, the rest of the country is behind Leicester.

"You reproach me about not buying big names but you will support the team who have no big names," he said.

 

Wenger added that Leicester this season are a fantastic example that football is not only about roping in big players with huge money.

"Leicester are a fantastic example that football is not only about just spending the money.

"It's the quality of work and it's important to think that the quality of the work can get you there. Leicester are a very good example for our league," he said.
