Intro:

Leicester City coach Nigel Pearson looks ahead to his side's latest fixture in the English Premier League a home game against fellow strugglers West Bromwich Albion.

Script:

SOUNDBITE (English) Nigel Pearson, Leicester City coach:(on whether results gained against teams in the bottom half of the table - such as Saturday's opponents West Bromwich Albion - will determine Leicester's position in the table)

"Possibly, yes. But you know, you don't come across poor sides in this league. That's the bottom line, so we're talking about the difference between playing sides who are capable of competing in the Champions League and then very, very competitive Premier League sides and... there is going to be an difference, yes, but you play against a lot of very, very good sides. We've got to make sure that we're competitive enough to win enough games."

SOUNDBITE (English) Nigel Pearson, Leicester City coach:(on the contribution to the side made by Leonardo Ulloa and a percieved lack of goals from the Argentine striker)

"He (Leonardo Ulloa) has got five. He hasn't got a lack of goals."

Question: 'None in the last four'

"That's not a lack of goals. He's got five goals and he's played exceptionally well for us. I think the concern for us in terms of goals is a lack of goals away from home recently and we've played some games where we've created chances and not taken them and in last week's game we didn't really create enough, so... strikers have to have the right number of opportunities for them to be a success in front of goal. Leo's contribution to the team so far has been very good in terms of his goals return and also his overall game, so he hasn't got a shortage of goals, for sure. We're nine games in and he's got five."
