A return of 4 points in 4 games is certainly not something the Premier League champions will be happy with. But while it’s true that a lot of their players performed out of their skins last season and might not be able to replicate it again, it’s also a fact that they have diversified their attack pretty well in the transfer market.

Managing to hold on to both Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez was a great bit of management, given the wide interest in both players, and adding Ahmed Musa and Islam Slimani gives them one of the most impressive attacking options in the division.

The question is, how is Claudio Ranieri going to fit them together to maximise their potential?

With the addition of Champions League this season, it isn’t going to get easier and at some point in the near future, Ranieri has to figure out a team combination and tactic that could give his team a stable footing in the league.

While Jamie Vardy still seems sharp, Ranieri also needs to get the best out of Mahrez again.
