Leicester started the afternoon at the bottom of the Premier League and ended it four places higher in 16th after a 4-0 win against Wolverhampton on Sunday gave a big boost to Foxes manager Brendan Rodgers.

Manager-less Wolves dropped a spot to 19th after losing the Midlands derby that was also an early relegation fight between the two teams.
