We asked for your views on Leicester's performance against Bournemouth, and their season overall.

Here are some of your comments:

Lindsay: I feel terrible. The manager never dramatically changed his style or first XI and left out in-form academy stars that were proving themselves in their squads. Ruud van Nistelrooy has to go and we need a proven manager who can bring in fresh players and merge them with the young stars of the academy, as long as PSR allows it.

Martin: We spent far too long chasing Graham Potter, but Harry Potter couldn't have kept us up this season. If Ruud wants to stay, I'd stick with him and give him the opportunity to build something. The clearout needs to be substantial, though.

Chris: Been going down the City for over 50 years and I'm certain there were more miserable seasons - but I can't remember one. Hollywood managerial signings very rarely work out well.

Phil: The longer it takes to make the change we all know needs to come, the poorer the pool of replacements will be, and the weaker the group of free agents will be. I would get Russell Martin in quickly so he can revive the squad with fresh blood.

John: Absolutely rubbish all season. Top needs to replace both Jon Rudkin and Susan Whelan straight away so the club can start afresh next season. I feel sorry for Ruud.

In what could turn out to be Ruud van Nistelrooy's final game in charge of Leicester, this was a meek performance.

They did not manage to muster any efforts on target and registered just three shots. Bournemouth kept Jakub Stolarczyk busy with 19 shots, seven hitting the target.

The Foxes managed to hold on until Antoine Semenyo finally broke the deadlock, but the goal had always seemed to be coming.

Apart from the earlier VAR intervention, only a stunning fingertip save from Stolarczyk shortly after the restart, when he denied Marcus Tavernier what would have been a superb goal, kept Leicester on level terms.

Leicester's only major chance came in the second chance when they counter-attacked after Bournemouth gave the ball away, but the hosts rapidly tracked back and Jordan Ayew eventually scuffed his effort at the back post.

Late chants of "Leicester till I die" from the visiting supporters rounded off the season before they return to the second tier after a campaign in which they finished 18th, 15 points adrift of safety.

Ruud van Nistelrooy spoke to BBC Match of the Day after defeat against Bournemouth: "I think the turning point was the first goal because we were in the game, it was a very level match. Off the ball we controlled but we weren't able to create an awful lot but some okay spells.

"When you look at the players we had to miss today it was 10 or 12 players but the players did well and very, very young players came on. In the end, I see these positives. The run of results and run of form that we were able to show in the last five six weeks we take that into the next season, that's what we wanted. It's time to rest now."

On what he thinks will happen to his future this week: "I hope to speak with them."

On whether he would like to stay: "I would like to talk and that's the first thing that needs to happen. It's been silent and it's something towards the end of the season and get things done with and then I expect to hear something."

On whether the difference of being in the Championship to the Premier League is a worry: "It's important to start talking and to see how we look into the future. It's what you need to find out. So far there hasn't been any conversation but I'm waiting for that to happen."

Leicester lost 25 Premier League games this season (W6 D7), they've never lost more in a single league campaign in their history (also 25 in 1994-95 and 1977-78).

So the curtain has come down on Leicester City's season with a defeat against Bournemouth at Vitality Stadium.

After their relegation fate was confirmed over a month ago, Ruud van Nistelrooy's side will be glad to see the back of a dismal campaign which has seen them record 25 defeats in 38 league games.

The Foxes were on a three-match unbeaten run going into the final day of the season, so how are you feeling after that performance?

What are your thoughts at the end of a long campaign for the Foxes?
