Leicester: 'Big, big decision' to make at the King Power Stadium

Since then, Leicester have been in woeful form, losing to Arsenal, Southampton, Chelsea, Manchester United and Brighton, who thrashed them 5-2 on Sunday.

Leicester also needed penalties to beat League Two Tranmere Rovers in the Carabao Cup last month.

As a result, Rodgers’ job has come under serious threat, with Leicester potentially facing a relegation battle less than 18 months after the Northern Ireland manager guided them to fifth and won the FA Cup.

But Rodgers’ case hasn’t been helped by their lack of transfer activity, with Wout Faes their only outfield incoming all summer, while they lost Wesley Fofana to Chelsea.

Despite their wretched recent form, Jones doesn’t think that sacking a manager of Rodgers’ quality would be a good idea.
