Burnley 1 Leicester 0 : The stats say it all.

Levein was quick to blame the failure of the strikers to take their chances as we slipped to another defeat against mediocre opposition. Speaking after the game Levein said:-

"It was like we were the home team. We were on top, controlled the match and had chances but missed them.

"We defended reasonably well, and particularly in the second half we did everything but put the ball in the back of the net and that is something we have spoken about recently as our goals for column is not great.

"If we weren't making chances it would be more of a concern but it might be that we have to bring someone in on-loan."

It was a game that City did control for long periods, especially in the second half. The match stats also appear to back up Levein's claims with City having 19 shots compared to just 7 from Burnley. City also enjoyed 58 percent of the possession (stats from The Longside).
