Leicester fans rip into another ’embarrassing’ Danny Ward performance and vent out critical chants aimed at manager Brendan Rodgers.
Much of the travelling fans made their feelings known after the final whistle blew on the defeat against Bournemouth.
Leicester went into the game with some hope that their side could at least build on what was a morale-boosting 4-0 Premier League victory at home to Nottingham Forest just five days ago.
That win lifted the Foxes off bottom and relieved some of the pressure on manager Brendan Rodgers.
However, just five days later, they fell to their 7th defeat of the season despite taking the lead at the Vitality Stadium.
Patson Daka’s first half goal had put the away side 1-0 up by half time, but two quick-fire goals from Philip Billing and Ryan Christie turned the game around and gave the Cherries all three points.
A video uploaded onto social media also shows sections of the away end chanting ‘we want Rodgers out,’ after full time.
It’s also not the first time that the chant has been heard, with it also used by sections away at Stockport and Brighton too.
The Fans At Full Time!!👍 #lcfc pic.twitter.com/QRFXmnHOPM

Speaking after the game Rodgers said that he’s concentrating on the upcoming games.
“It’s a really disappointing result for us. We controlled most of the game in the first half but maybe we got too comfortable and you cannot get comfortale in this league. In the second half, we weren’t aggressive enough and that invites pressure.”
On the loss of momentum: “It was great against Nottingham Forest on Monday where our play had everything in it that we want: intensity, pressure, aggression, desire. The players’ attitude was good in this game but technically we weren’t right, we misplaced too many passes and made mistakes. We never did enough against the ball or with the ball.”
On the pressure he is facing: “It’s not about pressure. I know if you’re in the bottom three, there will always be pressure – I understand that. For me though, it’s about focusing on process of getting the results. Ultimately we lost this game but we’ve got two home games and we really need to focus on them.”
🗣️ “We invited pressure and lost too many balls. A disappointing result for us.”

As mentioned, Leicester fans rip into ’embarrassing’ Danny Ward and vent out chants aimed at Brendan Rodgers…
@Jakebroadwell2: When the fans start singing Rodgers out. That’s when you know it’s time to go
@coolasleicester: Speaks for itself really. And he was nowhere to be seen at the end. #lcfc
@luke_palmer15: When it gets to this stage it’s hard to see a way back. The chairman will see and hear this. 🦊 #LCFC
@JoshhhDixon: Top are you listening 🗣
@I_Am_Salabim: Never wanted to see a digital picture of a corner flag more than I do now. #rodgersout
@Ashleypp1986: Rodgers is not elite, he is a complete fraud! #LCFC #rodgersout
@ajwatchLCFC: I will now spend the rest of the weekend mardy as fuck after another shit show ffs pass me some cider #lcfc #rodgersout
@nickz360: We’re fucking shitttttt…. We’re fucking shittttt…. We’re fucking shit We’re fucking shit We’re fucking shitttttt…… #lcfc
@LCFC91: Whats gone so badly wrong with Brendan. First 2 seasons he was tactically spot on most of the time. His subs made impacts on the game. Since last season he just watches and the game passes by and then makes bad subs. #lcfc
@Jmunny81: He has got to go!! Do the right thing Top 🙏🏼🦊 #rodgersout
@JonathanLCFC: I can genuinely see a scenario where we look back on 4-0 victory over Forest as our WORST result of the season. The scenario being that Rodgers clings on to power for a few more weeks, we eventually sack him too late, recover under a new manager and get relegated on GD #lcfc
@Watto_T: Too slow to react – Rodgers. Too slow to see we had a set piece problem, too slow to make meaningful substitutions and too slow to drop underperforming players. If it carries on, it will be too late to save our season. #RodgersOut #LCFC
@Wadey313: Can’t help but feel like Danny ward will single handedly relegate Leicester 😂
@EiFSoccer: Just seeing the highlights from the Leicester and Bournemouth game. Danny Ward is not a serious footballer. How Leicester possibly thought they could go into a season with him…blows our mind. Might be the worst GK in modern PL history.
@ReeveTom: Fraud someone tell me how he made it professional
@guruofgloomlcfc: Just seen the winning goal What fucking goalkeeping manual has Danny Ward been studying to come up with that pathetic effort ?!!
@markhallam9: That is an embarrassment. What a pathetic goal to concede.
@Sarahhh09: How is Danny Ward still starting what is this? Clown!
@BenBarnwell: My days what is that 😂😂 there is no way this mong is the best keeper at the club.
@devo_lcfc: You have to laugh or you’d cry right 😂 #lcfc
@sam_lcfc11: He’s fucking shocking
@dac_1994: When did Leicester sign Cal the Dragon?
@bifoldsplus: I wonder how many people who cursed Kasper regret him leaving. I genuinely believe we would have far more points today with Kasper in goal
@Fish10Phillip: It’s as though he’s done it on purpose
@RodwayMichael: How can you not pick Iversen over this clown
