Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri has praised his side and insisted that they are "playing well" after they recorded their second win of the season with a 2-1 victory over West Ham United.

A first goal of the season from Shinji Okazaki and another strike from Riyad Mahrez were enough to take the Foxes back to the top of the Premier League table.

"All the match was good for us. We are playing well. All the players play like a team, they play with the ball on the ground and it is important to increase our stamina and fitness, and also our mentality," Ranieri told BBC Sport.

"We are working very hard with the defensive line. I have very good players in front, very fast but it is important we all stay together.

"I didn't want to defend too deep but when you see your players go deep it is better to help them with their mentality."

Leicester continue their season when they face Tottenham Hotspur at the King Power Stadium next Saturday.
