BOSS SEEKS A RESPONSE TODAY

- By JORDAN BLACKWELL

THE Leicester City players were forced to face the music after their woeful display at QPR and Marti Cifuentes hopes that will generate a response against Watford this afternoon.

City capitulated at Loftus Road and went in at halftime 4-0 down, Cifuentes describing the first period as "unacceptable".

Despite his strong feelings towards the showing and despite staring at a heavy loss, the Spaniard surprisingly chose not to make any changes to his lineup at the interval. His first substitutions of the game did not come until after the hour mark.
