Leicester City hero Neil Lennon was impressed by the Foxes on Monday night.

The Foxes took a point from Newcastle to keep their Premier League survival hopes alive going into the final game of the season.

Lennon told BBC Radio 5 Live: "You just wonder is it too little, too late?

The Foxes will be relegated, regardless of their result at home to West Ham, if Everton beat Bournemouth at Goodison Park on Sunday.

"For Everton, it's in their hands," Lennon continued.

"It might put a little bit of added pressure on the already humongous pressure on Everton to win the game. It may play in Leicester's favour, but I would always rather have my own destiny in my own control.

"All Leicester have got to do is concentrate on beating West Ham and keeping their fingers crossed that something goes wrong for Everton at Goodison Park.

"The favourites will be Everton to beat Bournemouth. All Leicester and Leeds can do is win their home games and see what the outcome is. My fingers are obviously crossed for Leicester, but it's out of their hands. It'll all be on Sean Dyche and his [Everton] players to get the result."
