‘I always felt it after our summer, that we were going to have to fight our way through this season’: Brendan Rodgers blames crushing summer transfer window for Leicester’s plight following 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace

Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers has claimed that his side's poor transfer window has left them needing to 'fight through' the season, as their Premier League struggles continue after a 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace.

The former Celtic manager believes their poor window - in which Wout Faes was their only outfield recruit - is one of the main reasons for his side's struggles, which have left his position open 'to criticism'.

The Foxes showed glimpses of their quality, but were ultimately wasteful in attack, squandering several opportunities to find the breakthrough.
