"Strong, competitive, really fluid when we had the ball and so many great attacking moments. You have to be consistent in all parts of the game. We struggled a lot after the first goal. "We turned off and in this league you can't turn off.

Ben Davies’ loose pass was cleared by Wout Faes to Iheanacho, who turned and found the unmarked Maddison to sweep in his ninth goal of the season. Harry Souttar launched a clearance upfield and Iheanacho was given too much space to run at Eric Dier. The error-strewn performance left it a point adrift of the top four having played two games more.

Antonio Conte returned to the Tottenham dugout but that failed to inspire Spurs as Leicester came from behind to record a stunning 4-1 home win.

Spurs attempted to respond after the break when Bentancur, who later limped off injured, tested Danny Ward from distance only for Leicester to put the result beyond doubt nine minutes from time. Mendy emphatically opened his account with a thumping 20-yard drive into the roof of the net after Spurs only half-cleared a corner. Tottenham missed the chance to climb into the Premier League’s top four as Leicester humbled the visiting side at the King Power Stadium.

Aussie Souttar bags assist in Spurs upset; Gunners boss rages as refs 'change the rules': PL Wrap.

In the team something has to change, not individually. It’s about the desire.” Kelechi Iheanacho scored Leicester’s third in first half stoppage-time with a curler into the bottom corner after a long ball played forward by Australian Harry Souttar on his home debut. After we scored the goal, something changed. “They are a good group and we are excited with the team and the potential but it is still a work in progress,” Potter said. Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers said: “Big Harry Souttar was a class act today. Graham Potter admitted Chelsea are still “a work in progress” after their winless Premier League run extended to three games as Joao Felix’s first goal for the Blues was cancelled out by Emerson in a 1-1 draw at West Ham. Tottenham assistant manager Cristian Stellini said: “To be consistent is a long process, it’s a mental process, you have to be better mentally and better with the approach. “Now we’ve got balance in the team and now we’ve got players coming back.

After going behind early, the Foxes bumped the intensity and showed flashes of the side they once were, which eventually led them into the lead with two quickfire goals in the 23rd and 25th minutes. Arsenal’s lead was short-lived, however, when Toney got his head on the end of a poor shot. The goal was thoroughly reviewed by VAR and despite what seemed like Toney being in a clear offside position, the goal stood.

It's about the team, and the way the team has to play after a game we won against City, we have to forget this and continue to play with the same desire. "We didn't start badly, we started well and scored, but after that we probably thought it was a bit easier than normal. "The players played with great bravery to press the game, be aggressive in the right moments, and tactically we were outstanding. "It happened last season too - we beat Man City, then we lost to Burnley. With the ball we looked back to what we've been in previous times, dynamic, creative and a real threat to the goal. "Without making excuses, there's a reason behind where we've been lacking and we weren't able to bring in players until January. And quick as a flash, the Foxes were in front. "It happened last season too - we beat Man City, then we lost to Burnley," Stellinig added. "We started well and scored, but after that we probably thought it was a bit easier than normal. A resurgence of some kind was expected from Spurs after half-time but it never materialised. From that point, though, stress levels began to rise in the away dugout. The effort and our strength went down."

Tottenham's season could be about to unravel as injuries to key men bite hard in a critical stage of the campaign for Antonio Conte's men.

But given their injury issues and defensive struggles, Tottenham might be hoping for damage limitation from their first leg in the hope of being healthier for the return on March 8. With skipper Hugo Lloris out for at least six weeks and their best centre-back Cristian Romero banned, Tottenham’s back three were all over the place against the Foxes, while right wing-back Pedro Porro had a debut to forget. Recent results looked to have signalled a turnaround in Spurs’ form, with the 1-0 victory over Manchester City arguably one of the best performances of the season and also their third clean sheet in a row.

Milan owner Gerry Cardinale is flying back to Italy to watch the first leg of the Champions League Round of 16 against Tottenham and carry several projects.

Last but not least, Cardinale will get the latest updates on the stadium’s project. On February 14, the Serie A giants will host Antonio Conte’s Tottenham at the Stadio Meazza. Sporting CP’s fine remains an issue and if Leao is sold this summer, Cardinale expects to get at least €100m.

Recent results looked to have signalled a turnaround in Spurs' form but that all came crashing down at Leicester, with injuries also starting to bite hard.
