Leicester’s feeble marking in the 4-1 defeat at Manchester United was in sharp contrast to the Foxes’ solid defensive work throughout the 2016-17 season. Before Tuesday’s Champions League matchagainst Porto, Claudio Ranieri says the Foxes must get physical, accusing his defenders of being “scared.”
Huth got away with WWE-levels of grappling last year, and since they were minnows through December no one paid much attention. I suspect there is a very long highlight reel of Leicester fouls that made the rounds last summer.
