Leicester defender Ben Chilwell has asked the Foxes faithful to get behind the team as well as under fire manager Claude Puel following defeat to Manchester United on Sunday.

Leicester have won just four home league games this season and sit 11th, six points behind Wolves in seventh following the 1-0 defeat to the Red Devils.

Frustration continues to grow at the King Power Stadium and boss Puel was jeered by a section of supporters after he substituted James Maddison in the second half.

But Chilwell has asked the Foxes faithful to trust Puel.

“Of course, him, us, everyone at the training ground are all trying our best. It would be nice if they were patient with us but you can understand they expect results with the quality we’ve got,” said the England left-back.

“It’s a learning curve for us and we are learning and improving. That’s the main thing you have to take from the past few weeks.

“If you look at the team now from the team which won the league it’s pretty much a different 11 and it’s a very young squad.

“The fans expect results which is understandable but it’s a young team which is learning. We’re not scrapping in a relegation battle.”
