Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson is delighted with the support he's received from the board.

Even in their current predicament, Pearson has continued to receive the backing of his club's board, unlike Crystal Palace counterpart Neil Warnock and, most recently, former West Brom boss Alan Irvine.

Pearson said: "The longer disappointing results go on for it is clear that people will be under pressure.

"I'm very proud to be here, I work for people who I have a huge amount of respect for but I understand they will always make the right decision for the club.

"I don't need public assurances. I understand the situation I work under here and we are all trying to work for the same outcome."
