“I’m disappointed with the performance, although I wasn’t disappointed with the fact we improved in the second half and gave ourselves a chance.
“In the end, we were slightly chasing the game and a bit of bad defending for the third goal really put the game to bed.
“I felt as if we’d got ourselves right back in it, but in a way went chasing it a little bit when we should probably have waited to try and get it. We got picked off once or twice, but as I said I thought Leicester played well today.
“We have been doing okay, so tonight was disappointing.”
However, he was delighted with the performance of returning Michail Antonio declaring: “Antonio gives us something, he allowed us to play the ball forward and maybe get in behind a bit more.
“We hadn’t had that in the first half at all – we struggled to get out and struggled to make enough good passes.
“In the second half, we got the ball forward a bit more which gave us the opportunity to get up the pitch. It was good to get Michail back because he is so important to us.
“We won’t make any excuses [over the result], we’ll get back on the training pitch and work to be better. We’ve been good – tonight was probably the worst I’ve seen us defensively at different times, but overall we just need to do much better.”
