Striker Chris Wood is backing his manager Nigel Pearson to mastermind Leicester's path to promotion.

The Foxes sit seventh in the Championship table, just a point behind Bolton after a four-game unbeaten run.

"He does the business. We just need to make sure we do the business."

"He gets his teams set up right and gets everything prepared well. We just have to go out there and execute it because Nigel gives us all the tools to do it."
