Two Leicester players jeered by their own fans during Wolves match.

Ruud van Nistelrooy’s team found themselves trailing by two goals at halftime after strikes from Goncalo Guedes and Rodrigo Gomes gave Wolves control of the game.

It was a familiar tale for Leicester City, with defensive errors proving costly.

Jannik Vestergaard allowed Guedes to drift free while Conor Coady was too slow to react for the opener.

For Wolves’ second, James Justin misjudged a crossfield pass, gifting Gomes ample time to extend the lead before Mattheus Cunha added a third goal.

Frustration boiled over at the King Power Stadium as the home crowd booed the team off the pitch at halftime.

During the game, specific players faced the brunt of the fans’ anger.

Danny Ward and James Justin targeted by boos

Danny Ward and James Justin have been focal points of fan dissatisfaction this season.

Ward’s selection against Wolves was met with anger, and his performance only fueled criticism as he conceded three first-half goals.

Ward’s recent form is alarming, with six goals conceded in just 90 minutes of play—averaging a goal every 15 minutes.

Justin, meanwhile, has been a consistent presence in the lineup but has drawn ire for his role in the defensive lapses, particularly down Leicester’s right flank.

Fans appear to have run out of patience with both players.

Ward and Justin were booed whenever they touched the ball, and the entire team was jeered off at the halftime whistle.

Leicester players must step up

The dismissal of Steve Cooper was meant to spark a revival in form, but for Van Nistelrooy, the situation is becoming increasingly challenging.

Cooper’s tactics failed to resonate with the squad, leading to his departure and leaving no margin for error.

Yet, Leicester’s performances have worsened, with the players being the consistent factor in the decline.

Accountability now lies squarely with them as they face mounting pressure to turn their season around.
