Roy Keane slams Brendan Rodgers after Brighton humbling leaves ex Celtic boss on verge of Leicester sack

Roy Keane has labelled Brendan Rodgers ' Leicester side as 'disgraceful' after they whimpered to a 5-2 loss at the hands of Brighton on Sunday - with the result edging the former Celtic boss closer to the sack.

Despite leading in the first minute, the Foxes were not at the races at all throughout the afternoon with Brighton dominating possession, limiting them to almost nothing. Scoring twice flattered the away side, and the Seagulls should have had at least six goals; which would have been a formality but for a farcical VAR call which saw Fife-rooted Alexis Mac Allister robbed of one of the goals of the season.

Just six shots to Brighton's 23 summed up the gulf in class between the pair, leaving a beleaguered Rodgers looking glum on the touchline - with shouts from the Foxes' fanbase to relieve him from his services exponentially increasing. It is a far cry from their previous endeavours where Rodgers won them the FA Cup just 15 months ago, with European football becoming commonplace at the King Power Stadium in recent years.
