There's been too much talk about Leicester having to "relearn" defending from corners as a result of the rule changes. No other teams are consistently giving away goals from corners like Leicester are. Wes Morgan looks a shadow of his former self.

Referees apparently clamping down on holding etc.

It's some bullshit excuse the media made up earlier in the season when Leicester dropped a few points, but now it's clearly a pattern of poor defending from set pieces.

Not so much rule changes as much as the referees were instructed to give penalties if they saw grappling in the box on corners. This is presumably why Stoke is conceding so many from set pieces, too.

They improved their squad depth but it's still not amazing and they've had a poor start to the season already. If it was like Sunderland or something it'd be more reasonable not to just play their 11 strongest, alternatively I guess if they're fine capitulating and letting Chelsea win...

He's pretty good. If Conte sticks with playing wingbacks, he's perfect for that.
