Brendan Rodgers played down any title talk surrounding Leicester City after Sunday's thumping win over Aston Villa.

Jamie Vardy continued his incredible season by adding another two goals to his tally, while Kelechi Iheanacho and Johny Evans also got on the scoresheet at Villa Park.

"I don't think anybody expects us to be anywhere near the top," Rodgers said after their latest win.

"After Manchester United won at Manchester City, a caption came up after the game about how far Manchester City are away from Liverpool.

"We respect that and we just get on with our job, get on with trying to play and improve our performance levels.

"It's just natural - Manchester City and Liverpool are both incredible teams in the league and have shown last year how good they were.

"For us, we know that we are constantly trying to improve and look to close the gap. But I thought today we looked like a top team."
