Petr Cech has faced the media after plenty of our away defeats this year and he had another one to digest on Wednesday night.

The goalkeeper was in inspired form to keep Leicester at bay in the first half and then watched his team-mates launched a second-half rally before Leicester won the game late on.

Here’s what Petr said after the game:

on conceding and going down to 10 men early on…

Yeah, we obviously gave them an advantage to play quite a long time against 10 men but I felt that we dug really deep and we obviously needed to defend at times and be compact and wait for our opportunities to counter-attack.
