'No hiding' for Foxes - Cifuentes

Leicester City manager Marti Cifuentes spoke to BBC Radio Leicester following Saturday's 2-0 defeat by Blackburn Rovers.

"It was definitely a poor performance, there is no hiding from that," he said.

"There is more in this group of players, I'm sure, and we now need a reaction. I understand that we cannot keep waiting. I expect much more from them.

"When a club like Leicester is in the Championship, the expectation is that they are always at the top. And at the moment we are not achieving those standards.

"It's very hard as a manager to come into a place that I knew would be a difficult situation. But I do believe in my strength and quality as a manager, and do believe in the club project.

"I'm aware as well that this would not be easy and that it would not be quick. But we do have to get better, there are no excuses or hiding. We need to raise our standards."
