Leicester defender Moore delighted with Premier League start

Leicester City defender Liam Moore is delighted with their Premier League start.

He said he is full of belief after City's opening to the campaign, which has seen them take points from Everton and Arsenal, and go toe to toe for an hour with Premier League title favourites Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

"It's been a great start, but a difficult one with three of the top five teams from last season," Moore told the FA website.

"As a team I think we've done really well and could possibly have had a couple more points on the board than we've got.

"But that can only be a positive because of the top teams that we've faced. It's been a good stepping stone for me, in the order that I've played football, and it's worked out pretty well.

"I was playing regularly in the Championship and then made the step up to the Under-21s and played a few games to get some experience, which I could take back into the Championship.

"What I've learned with the Under-21s has definitely helped me out in the Premier League, as the football there is a bit more similar to the Under-21s football."
