Leicester City 0-3 Chelsea: 3 Things we learned
By Will Kennedy
Leicester City faced a tough game on Saturday as they played host to league leaders, and current Champions League holders, Chelsea, in the Premier League. With the injury to Youri Tielemans and with Leicester’s mixed form of late, a result against the Blues was always going to be hard, but Leicester delivered one of their worst performances so far this season and allowed Chelsea to breeze past them in a 3-0 loss.
Watching this game was very frustrating. Many fans would have taken a point going into today’s game, just as long as the performance was something to be proud of. It wasn’t. Sloppy passing, no pressing and amateur defending meant that the game was done and dusted by half time – even though the score was only 2-0.
Here, FoL will analyse three of the big talking points from the game, will look at what went wrong and will explore what this all means for the Foxes.
