Ranieri: Leicester lacked character, but I have clearer ideas now

Claudio Ranieri has questioned the character of his Leicester City squad after the Premier League champions suffered the heaviest defeat by an English team in Champions League history.

Andre Silva's double, wedged between strikes from Jesus Corona, Yacine Brahimi and Diogo Jota, secured a thumping 5-0 victory for Porto in Group G.

Having already secured top spot in the group, Ranieri made 10 changes to the starting XI at Estadio do Dragao on Wednesday, but was furious after another abject display from his side, who are looking to arrest their dismal domestic form when they take on Manchester City this weekend.
