Leo Ulloa - Interview with "La Media Inglesa"

Leo Ulloa said some really interesting things said in an interview he did with a Spanish YouTube channel focussed on English Football -  'La media Inglesa'. He said some great things about the great escape year  and the title season. I love the channel itself because I keep my Spanish sharp whilst listening to discussion of a a topic I love, English Football, so if you're learning or have learnt, i'd recommend subscribing. Anyway, this will be paraphrased as I took notes on things that would be great to share whilst watching it. I don't believe they have English subs available, but if people request / really would like to watch it, I'll painstakingly write them for the video in it's entireity :).

•  He was happy that although we were in the relegation zone in the PL, fans were coming asking for autographs and photos, seemed happy, upbeat.
•  When he signed for Leicester, the lead physio told him 'Leo, there aren't any stars here' meaning big name players (at the time he was our most expensive signing).  
• After losing against tottenham 4-3 in the great escape season, Cambiasso sent him an image at 2am of all the fixtures they had left and all the fixtures of the rivals. He had tabulated how many points could be gained against certain teams, and how many the rivals were likely to gain. Esteban said 'I think we can do this' (survive). During breakfast at the next training day (whilst drinking Mate, a traditional argentinian drink - think a cuppa but for argentines) they again looked over the fixtures and potential points that Esteban had been working on. "I think I'm going to take this to the boss' Esteban then said. Later that day, all the players were shown on a big screen the theory / data that Esteban had put together. They never mentioned that it had came from him. Leo then goes on to say that many of the fixtures ended up coming out how Esteban had calculated. (What a legend Cambiasso!!)   
• The team was very united, like a close family in the title winning season
• When Ranieri Arrived, he asked who was the most talented player with the ball. They all said Mahrez. Ranieri then said 'Okay, so we're going to play for him, we'll help him and he will help us win games'. He said that this really raised Riyad's confidence.
• On Vardy - "tiene calle, tiene barrio" literally 'He has street". I think we all know what he means by this! He also said Vardy was contantly playing jokes in the dressing room, some of them frustrating.
•  On a day out in Dublin whilst playing for Brighton, they ended up in the same pub as the Leicester team. The Leicester team were all in costume, with Wes Morgan and Wasilewski as Rocky and Apollo. 
• In a team full of players supposedly from the second division, they all wanted to prove what they could really do.
• There was no direct financial bonus for winning the league that they were playing for, although of course they did recieve a BMW each, and im sure other bonueses must have come their way after actually doing it. He requested his with left hand steering for when he'd go back to Spain.
• Around Christmas time is when they really believed they could win the league.
• He'll never live something like that season again. When asked which photo symbolises the season for him, he cited the one of Drinkwater jumping on his back celebrating as he had scored again West Ham.

He seems like a really humble, likeable guy.
