This is the place for all the social media posts as Leicester City host Tottenham in the Premier League

Before the match, Tottenham manager Antonio Conte told BT Sport: "We have recovered Sergio Reguilon and Steven Bergwijn, he has been training but is not 100% to start the game so now he is available to come into the game.

"We have come here to win and we're playing against a really strong team. Leicester last season finished before us and won the FA Cup so we have to try our best to get three points tonight."

This was his pre match press conference.

Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers told BT Sport: "It has felt a long time. It's a big game and hopefully we can produce a good performance.

"We will always try to play how we play and look to attack the game but against top players you need to defend well. It's a great chance to start off the new year and see if we can continue from our last two performances."

Club sources from the club have reportedly suggested that this was a difficult decision but a unanimous one among all the key decision makers.  The club exercised a one-year extension in Ten Hag's contract after their FA Cup final win against Manchester City in May . However, just over three months later, he has been dismissed.

Alejandro Garnacho contributed his fifth goal of the season , and captain Bruno Fernandes had a bit of luck with his free-kick, which deflected off Leicester’s James Justin and into the net. Defensively, United weren’t flawless. Some familiar issues allowed Bilal El Khannouss and Conor Coady to pull goals back for Leicester before the break. Coady’s finish, a firs
