Finally, you admit it 😡😡: Russell Martin has finally admitted it as he makes this comment about today’s game against Oxford United. This is what he said.

Russell Martin has described Leicester City’s 4-0 defeat to Oxford United as “unacceptable” after a miserable afternoon at the King Power Stadium.

The Foxes were comfortably beaten by Oxford, with Leicester unable to find a response as the visitors took full advantage of a disappointing performance.

The heavy defeat leaves Martin facing increasing pressure after a difficult opening to the League One campaign.

Leicester have now won just one of their opening five league matches, a record that will do little to ease concerns among supporters who expected the club to challenge near the top of the table following their return to the third tier.

Martin was understandably unhappy with what he saw from his players and made his feelings clear when reflecting on the result.

Describing the 4-0 loss as “unacceptable”, the manager acknowledged the severity of the performance and the frustration it will cause among Leicester supporters.

The Foxes struggled to impose themselves on the game and were punished repeatedly by an Oxford side that looked sharper and more decisive throughout the afternoon.

Conceding four goals at home will only increase scrutiny on Leicester’s defensive organisation and overall approach.

Martin now faces the difficult task of lifting his squad ahead of the next fixture. Leicester need a response quickly, with supporters demanding a significant improvement in both performances and results.

After five league games, the pressure is firmly on the manager and his players to turn things around.
