Leicester urged to sack manager Brendan Rodgers

Leicester City have been urged to sack manager Brendan Rodgers.

Gabby Agbonlahor believes that a change in the dugout is required to turn results around.

"Maddison played inside right, which is not his preferred position; Daka didn't look sharp up front; Barnes didn't look himself," Agbonlahor told talkSPORT after Saturday's 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace. "Defensively, they don't look great with Amartey at the back.

"They look like a team that's going through the motions, Leicester, and that's a game today, and last week against Bournemouth, that they need to be picking up six points from because there are tougher games to come; they've played 10 games and got five points. That's relegation form; they're in a relegation fight, Leicester."

Agbonlahor went on to add: "If it's 20 million, 15, 10 million, whatever it is for Brendan Rodgers to pay him off, I would do it and bring in someone fresh with different ideas because they've got the players."
