'Confidence is on the floor' when goals go in

BBC Radio Leicester's Owynn Palmer-Atkin says "it's actually quite incredible to watch" the belief leave Leicester City's players when a goal goes in against them.

Speaking on the latest When You're Smiling podcast, he said: "When they concede - their confidence is on the floor.

"As soon as that first goal [against Crystal Palace] went in and as soon as the substitutes were made - which were very, very unpopular in the stadium - you could just see the confidence draining out of the players."

The Athletic's Leicester City correspondent Rob Tanner agrees, and thinks although some players don't seem to take it as badly as others, it cannot be long before it takes its toll on them.

"You look at the youngsters - like [Facundo] Buonanotte and [Bilal] El Khannous - and they look like lads who are not affected too much at the moment," he said. "But, the longer this goes on, they will be affected.

"If I'm thinking I've not got the confidence they won't keep it out of the net... how are they feeling? They're the guys who have got to do it."
