​Barnes bemoans slow Leicester starts

Leicester City star Harvey Barnes hopes the team can improve on their slow starts.

Once again, Leicester dug themselves into a hole early against Manchester United at home.

Marcus Rashford put the visitors ahead in the early stages, a lead which United held onto for the rest of the game.

While Leicester have secured many points from a losing position this season, Barnes knows it is a trend that is not sustainable.

"Obviously we are very disappointed with the result in the end," he said to LCFC TV.

"Another slow start which has happened a few times in the last couple of games.

"We know we need to improve on that.

"I thought we grew into the game really well, we had some great chances of our own, but unfortunately we couldn't get that first goal to kick us off."
