Despite the club's owners being moved to publicly endorse their manager, the Italian tactician has played down the Foxes' Premier League struggles
Claudio Ranieri says Leicester City are not experiencing a crisis and claims a public vote of confidence from the club's owners on Tuesday was not necessary.
Surprise Premier League champions last season, the Foxes have endured a difficult defence of their title.
They sit 16th in the table, one point above the relegation zone, ahead of the FA Cup fourth-round replay at home to Championship side Derby County on Wednesday.
Prior to his news conference to preview the game, Leicester released a statement insisting Ranieri has the club's "unwavering support".
