The statistics tell a damning story of Ruud van Nistelrooy's reign as Leicester City manager and they got worse after a limp English Premier League loss to West Ham United on Feb 27.

LONDON - The statistics tell a damning story of Ruud van Nistelrooy's reign as Leicester City manager and they got worse after a limp English Premier League loss to West Ham United on Feb 27.

Since taking over from Steve Cooper in November, the Dutchman has won only two of 14 league matches and has now lost 11 of the last 12.

The former Netherlands striker netted 95 EPL goals for Manchester United, but his Leicester side have now gone four league games without scoring, conceding 12 in that time.

He cut a gloomy figure at the London Stadium watching a 2-0 defeat by West Ham and the question now is whether he will still be on the touchline when they travel to Chelsea on March 9.

"What do you want me to say?" he replied, when asked whether he expected to still be in charge. "I keep working, I keep going."
