Brendan Rodgers has conceded that he could lose his job as Leicester City manager following their thrashing by Tottenham on Saturday afternoon, while James Maddison has urged his team-mates to take responsibility for the loss.
Leicester were beaten 6-2 by Spurs as Son Heung-min came off the substitutes’ bench to score a 14-minute hat-trick which condemned the visiting side to a sixth defeat in seven Premier League matches. The Foxes are rock bottom of the table having taken just a point so far.
Youri Tielemans’ penalty and James Maddison’s inventive finish saw them go in at half-time at 2-2, after headers from Harry Kane and Eric Dier, before Tottenham took control. Rodrigo Bentancur punished a Wilfred Ndidi mistake to make it 3-2 before Son’s stunning impact wrapped up the points for Antonio Conte’s side.
