Leicester 1-2 Southampton: 3 Things we learnt at King Power

I just don’t get it, how can you be playing such beautiful one-touch football and playing so well for 60 minutes and then just go in completely the opposite direction, I’ll be honest but in those last 30 minutes the team playing before me may as well have been a completely different team, the difference between the two was just astonishing.

After James Maddison’s outrageous free-kick, we started to just sit back rather than carry on with our nice pressing football, we invited Southampton into the box and allowing them one too many chances to score by not pushing out of the box and up the pitch. Eventually after pressing Leicester time and time again we allowed the Saints into the box for Leicester lad Che Adams to equalise and eventually also score the winner.

I just don’t get how after scoring a goal you can suddenly play so bad, I know it was partially down to Brendan Rodgers substitutions, all three; Tielemans, Iheanacho and Daka didn’t seem to make much of a difference and by taking Perez and Barnes off we lost the width on the wings and to be honest at many times I couldn’t even tell who was meant to be playing there and even what formation it was supposed to be!

It was frustrating as a fan to watch because you’d seen how good they’d been in the first 60 minutes and how much potential there was but yet again there was no clean sheet. Boos echoed around the stadium at full time, and rightly so.
