Leicester City must learn the art of ruthlessness

The 2-0 scoreline doesn’t simply do justice to Leicester City’s five-star display against Brighton and Hove Albion. Craig Shakespeare’s side were far more dominant than that, and they should have made the final score look more emphatic, but they simply couldn’t.

It was a case of not being able to exploit a shambolic defensive performance to the full, as the Foxes regularly missed their chances, the best of the lot being Jamie Vardy’s miss. They’d need to be more ruthless going forward.
