Liverpool failed to adapt in their defeat to Leicester City, bemoans Georginio Wijnaldum: 'We were not ready at the beginning of the game'

Gini Wijnaldum lamented Liverpool's failure to adapt to the renewed intensity of a resurgent Leicester City in Monday's 3-1 defeat at the King Power.

Jamie Vardy scored either side of a Danny Drinkwater wonder goal as Leicester picked up their first league win of 2017 - just four days after the sacking of Claudio Ranieri.

Philippe Coutinho netted a late consolation for Jurgen Klopp's side. But their poor start to 2017 continued as interim Leicester boss Craig Shakespeare picked up three points at the first time of asking.

The Champions flew out of the blocks - with Jamie Vardy's heavy challenge on Sadio Mane within a minute typifying their renewed intensity.
