David Nugent admits Leicester City players have enjoyed proving the doubters wrong.
Nigel Pearson's side, who won the Championship last year, have taken eight points from five matches.
Given that they have already played Arsenal, Chelsea and 20-time champions United, the Foxes are taking delight in silencing their doubters.
"When the fixtures came out, with the start we were given, no one expected us to get any points, so we are proving everyone wrong," said Nugent, who has played in the top flight before with Portsmouth.
"They can write us off all they want, but we know in this squad we have the spirit, the energy, and the players to cause teams problems as we showed against Manchester United."
