Leicester City's 2-0 defeat to West Ham United was the latest game in which the Foxes showcased how bad they are on live television. The takeaway from the game, barring the imminent relegation, was the lack of effort from Ruud van Nistelrooy’s men.
After a brief spell on the ball for the opening five minutes of the game, West Ham took control and Leicester simply failed to release the pressure. Then, two calamitous goals followed which perfectly summed-up how the season has played out.
Boubakary Soumare's half-hearted effort to pinch the ball from Jarrod Bowen was poor, Viktor Kristiansen's 'clearance' was just as bad and Facundo Buonanotte's decision to use the outside of his foot to clear his lines gave West Ham the advantage.
After replacing Caleb Okoli in defence Jannik Vestergaard's passive defending, to not only keep two West Ham players on with his awful positioning, allowed Mohamed Kudus a free shot and Tomas Soucek with the easiest goal of his career.
The second was just as bad. Jamie Vardy's tame header at the front post from a poor corner was followed by Bowen breezing past the City captain, on the byline, like he wasn't there. Another piece of luck went against Leicester when Bowen's strike hit Vestergaard and past Mads Hermansen.
The TV cameras panned to Ruud van Nistelrooy, who looked exhausted and out of sorts all evening, frustratingly returning to his bench after another abysmal goal was conceded.
Issues on the pitch are one thing and Leicester are destined for relegation. However, for the supporters, the downfall of the football club falls at the lap, mainly, of those running the club upstairs - as was displayed in the protest against Arsenal.
However, one problem that continues to pop up is the constant criticism from outsiders, with many questioning why a club which has enjoyed so much success under the current ownership is 'spitting their dummies' out. It's a stance that is quickly rubbished by fans.
And on Thursday night, TNT Sports' monologue on the club will be one that angers thousands. As the TV cameras recorded the away end at the London Stadium, former Foxes midfielder Robbie Savage and commentator Darren Fletcher discussed City's current issues.
On the anniversary of Leicester's 1999 League Cup win, Savage, who played in that game, spoke of his pride of lifting the tournament with the club. "What times they were," Savage said, before turning to recent history. "But listen, who would have thought that Leicester would have gone on to win the Premier League and an FA Cup in the way they did?
"If you ask any Leicester fan, I know there's frustration now, but if you'd have said to any Leicester fan 10 years ago, there'd be ups and downs, but you'll win the Premier League and FA Cup." Darren Fletcher interrupted to add: "And play in the Champions League and reach the quarter-finals against Atletico Madrid"
Everyone has their opinion on this and just because City won the Premier League - which was ten years ago next May by the way - and the FA Cup four years ago, it does not mean failure should be accepted. It is another damning stance from outside the club that is miles from the real feeling from those who love it dearly.
