Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha must have enjoyed better Bank Holiday Mondays. But the Leicester owner, who saw his side ripped apart by a rampant Fulham side that were unlucky to only find themselves 3-0 up at half-time thanks to goals from Willian, Carlos Vinícius and Tom Cairney, may fear that the worst is yet to come.

While Dean Smith pointed to the way his players briefly fought back after Cairney made it four through consolation goals from Harvey Barnes and a James Maddison penalty, a missed spot-kick from Jamie Vardy and another goal for the evergreen Willian only rubbed salt into the Leicester wounds.
