Premier League: Nigel Pearson frustrated as defeat at QPR sends Leicester to the bottom

A frustrated Nigel Pearson says he feels for his Leicester players after they were beaten at QPR despite a good performance.

The Foxes created a host of chances and took a deserved lead before conceding sloppy goals to lose 3-2 at Loftus Road.

Leicester are now rooted to the bottom of the Premier League after a run of eight games without victory.

But Pearson told Sky Sports: “There were lots of positive things. Throughout the game we looked dangerous and created lots of chances.

“That’s a positive thing for us moving forward because providing we go about every game the same way then we’ll turn things round for ourselves.

“But we ended up losing a game we shouldn’t have and that remains very frustrating, even more so when we go out there, have a go, deservedly lead then concede two poor goals.

“I feel for the players because they’ve done so many good things and it’s not turned out the way we would have liked. But it’s important that we don’t look too much at other people around us in the table.”

Jeffrey Schlupp scored his second goal of the season to haul Leicester level in the second half before Charlie Austin scored a dramatic winner.

“We feel hard done by but we’ve got to convert our chances,” Schlupp said.

“We’ll pick ourselves up. We’ve got to take the positives because we played well and hopefully we can get some points from future games.”
