Jamie Vardy insists Leicester will 'blank out criticim' and enjoy respite from dire league form as Foxes gear up for Sevilla clash with light session

Jamie Vardy has called on everybody at Leicester to work harder to drag the club to Premier League survival.

Speaking on the eve of the first leg of Leicester’s Champions League last-16 tie against Sevilla, the striker spoke before his side took to the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan for a training session.

The reigning Premier League champions are deep in relegation trouble, just one point and one place above the drop zone, but Vardy believes the pressure is momentarily off in Spain.
