Everton is showing the proper amount of respect for the new king of England.
Ahead of Saturday's fixture against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium, which is more a celebration of the Foxes' remarkable achievement than an actual football match, the Toffees players walked onto the pitch to form the customary guard of honour for the newly-minted champion.
Moments prior, the stadium was serenaded by iconic Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli, who put on a spine-tingling performance for friend, and Leicester boss, Claudio Ranieri.
