One step forward, two steps back for Foxes

That's now nine games without a clean sheet for Leicester under Martí Cifuentes.

The most alarming aspect of Saturday's game at QPR wasn't simply conceding four goals, but the manner of them. Three came from crosses.

They were clearly targeted by Julian Stephan as part of the R's game plan, and the hosts were dominant throughout.

Leicester were exposed repeatedly out wide. It was far too easy for Rangers to deliver balls into the box, with really little resistance from the City midfield and backline.

But the bigger picture for the Foxes under Cifuentes this season: it's one step forward, two steps back.
