It's been such a good season for Leicester up to this point where we've had to suspend football.

What have you been doing in the intervening time?

And when you're in contact with the players, what kind of things are you discussing with them?

But you have to sort of trust the players a lot here.

Do you keep an eye on their social media to see what they've been up to?

So you haven't been across it and we're not telling tales because it's all positive, but we've been keeping an eye on them for you, particularly Jamie Vardy's social media account.
