They also deserve better results in Europe from the performances they have put in so far. I wouldn’t say one’s better than the other, they are equally good but give you different problems. But while there are similarities to the current team, there’s also a different approach and tempo.

Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers said he accepts that his job is under mounting pressure after his side's 6-2 defeat at Tottenham.

I understand the game. We got punished for mistakes," Rodgers said. I totally understand the frustration of supporters.

"I asked the players to play with courage and be brave and they were certainly that. I really feel for the players, because they didn't deserve that, but we just have to be better in key defensive moments. "It has been a really difficult start. Brendan knows, he knows the game, he's been in it long enough, if they were to sack him, 'well, look at the run I'm on'. He told Sky Sports: "The easy option, sometimes for owners, is to change it. The statistics are damning and Redknapp admits he could see a change coming.

LEICESTER manager Brendan Rodgers is under intense pressure after the Foxes were beaten 6-2 by Tottenham.

I understand the game. "Son comes on, produces a couple of moments of magic, the game gets stretched and it ends up 6-2 which looks like a ridiculous scoreline. A couple of individual mistakes of our own which ended up making it too much for us to do." It's painful and it hurts when you see a manager who you have a lot of respect for and who you've built a brilliant relationship with, get so much heat and so much negativity. But I don't think that was the case.

"I don't think the score was (a fair reflection).

“Whatever team he puts out, there’s unlikely to be an advantage for us in that selection. “I think they’ve been superb – they’re just non-stop and I have to say that their energy levels are incredible. “Our boys have been magnificent ever since I came in and they’ll all be up for this one.

"If you need to do that in a winning team then naturally you would look to do it with other teams. It is that hard work and aggression that will bring back the confidence and [gives us a] much better chance to succeed." We have looked a few times like we would get over the line, then we haven't and it is a spiral. Now we move on, onto the next game and we just look to focus and look to bring our best and get a performance." "The immediate future is focusing on getting the players winning consistently. I remember talking to Sir Alex [Ferguson] about it and he did it with a winning team. You have to break that cycle and that is so important but to do that we have to play to our strength. "We suffer but not in the real sense, we want to win games for the supporters, for us to feel good. Rodgers has called for bravery from his team as the club look to find that performance.

[Rodgers gave a subdued interview](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/brendan-rodgers-leicester-sack-fears-28018047) after the match, in which he conceded he understood the pressure on him, and Redknapp thought that he sounded like a defeated man. I’ve every confidence that the team can push on and if they play like they did for large parts of this, we’ll climb higher in table” Asked whether he wished to continue, Rodgers said: “100 per cent.” “The owners will do what it is that they feel they need to do. “I feel in the team you watched them play in the first half, you can see the confidence in the team, the creativity in the team, the pressing in the team, it’s just cutting out the mistakes. “There’s no doubt in the first seven games, we’ve had a tough start.

Especially after the summer that we have had. It [the international break] has probably come at a good time to reset everything and break the cycle of the summer as well. The Foxes are rooted to the bottom of the table and have conceded 22 goals this season, which is the most by any side in Premier League history after seven matches. Leicester have taken just one point from seven matches so far – their worst start to a season since the 1983/84 campaign. In his post-match press conference, Rodgers admitted he could be sacked before the next game, against Nottingham Forest on October 3. But Rodrigo Bentancur’s measured finish and Son Heung-min’s 14-minute hat-trick off the substitutes’ bench ruined Leicester’s day in north London.

LEICESTER currently sit bottom of the Premier League putting Brendan Rodgers' position at risk.

The German seems keen to make a swift return to the dugout following his Chelsea sacking so could see benefits in a move to the Midlands. Pochettino would be received very well at the King Power stadium and would instantly help the troubled defence without sacrificing too much in attack. He is also said to be admired by the club’s hierarchy and would join fellow Dane and new set piece coach Lars Knudsen in the dressing room. He would also help improve the poor defence, with the Bees posting a solid defensive record. The former Celtic boss appears to have resigned himself to his fate, confirming he will accept any decision made following his side's 6-2 defeat to Tottenham with the team languishing at the bottom of the Premier League table. This is something that could appeal to Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha given the Foxes’ well-documented financial restraints this season.

LEICESTER CITY are without a win in their first seven Premier League games this season.

Rodgers was left frustrated during the summer with Leicester doing little to bolster their squad in the transfer market. "The owners will do what it is that they feel they need to do. A solid start to the new campaign, during which they have only been beaten once, has left the Bees in the top half. It means the Foxes have now conceded 11 goals in their last two Premier League games, having been hammered by Brighton earlier this month. Spurs found another gear after the break, however, with Rodrigo Bentancur's finish preceding a superb Heung-min Son hat-trick to leave Leicester scratching their heads at a damning 6-2 scoreline.

He also led the Foxes to the FA Cup and Community Shield in 2021 and to the semi-finals of the Europa Conference League last following season. "The two centre-halves [Jonny Evans and Wout Faes] were fantastic today but in that last little period of the game we were so keen to try and get something back that we left them isolated, so the score then looks a lot worse than what the actual game was," he said. "I really feel for the players because I didn't feel they deserved that," added Rodgers. "I understand the game, I understand football. "I come in every day and do my work and I can see the players playing with confidence, however you've got to win.
