Schneiderlin: 'Man Utd must stop Vardy run'

Morgan Schneiderlin has insisted that Manchester United will do everything to stop Jamie Vardy scoring in an 11th Premier League match in a row for Leicester City.

The England international tied former United striker Ruud van Nistelrooy's record of 10 straight games with a goal last week, scoring in the 3-0 win over Newcastle United to send the Foxes to the top of the table.

The midfielder told United's website: "He's been brilliant, it's amazing to score that many goals for a team but especially a team like Leicester, who last year secured their safety in the last few games.

"What they're doing is very good; to be top at the end of November and start of December, it's very good for their club but now they have a difficult period. We'll do our best to expose them and make sure Vardy doesn't get the record.

"It's not only one player in a team. He gets all the rewards by scoring goals, but I'm sure his team-mates are doing a great job. I know they have good, strong players and their manager is a good organiser. He's an Italian coach who organises teams very well, so it will be a hard game but we know that if we play at full strength, with our quality, we can be first."

United will replace Leicester at the top of the standings if they win at the King Power Stadium tomorrow.
