But for who, Chris Kamara?

[Henry Winter @henrywinter]

Shocking and sad to see so many empty seats in home sections of the King Power. Shows level of frustration and anger with the mess Leicester are in on and off the pitch. Cifuentes will get the grief and possibly the sack for another loss but problems run far deeper. Leicester need stronger leadership from dressing-room to boardroom.

More spirited second half cannot hide the shambles and surrender of the first and the troubles within the Club. Threat of possible points deductions, issues around Top, Rudkin and too many players overpaid and underperforming. Wout Faes has played 28 times for Belgium in last three years so he must be decent but he rarely exudes much authority or security with Leicester.

It’s about concentration and attitude as well as ability. It’s about taking responsibility and remembering Leicester’s identity and that Foxes never quit.

Recruitment a huge issue. Lost some leaders, didn’t replace them with strong characters, fighters needed in times like this. Why did they start playing only when 3-0 down to Sheffield United? Pulled two goals back, bit more enterprise, Mavididi having a go, Soumare a good sub, James’ outstanding strike, Monga brings trickery and hope. But too late. Damaging defeat at home to a team who started the day 22nd in the Championship (and Chris Wilder, a leader, has got Sheffield United going).

Leicester have to wake up. They’re heading towards celebrations of the 10th anniversary of the great Premier League title triumph. Leicester have also to beware they’re not heading to League One. They have to fight back and win back the fans. #LCFC 🦊 #LEISHU

[Test Match Special @bbctms]

One of the all-time great Test matches comes to a close, and it's India who have won by six runs.

The series finishes 2-2.

Test. Match. Cricket. 🤯

[Henry Moeran @henrymoeranBBC]

Supposing Jimmy Anderson's run-up is about 19 yards, and he's bowled 40,002 deliveries in Tests...

Well that's 760,038 yards, or 430 miles.

Which is, by chance, the distance on foot to walk from the Utilita Bowl to Chester-le-Street via every Test venue in England.

@Ashleypp1986 @Nigel_Farage @reformparty_uk Didn’t Farage tell us that Brexit was the answer to curb illegal immigration though? I see Labour have promised a border security task force to tackle illegal boat crossings, so hopefully you’ll get the change you’re after

[Sam Carruthers @SamCarruthers1]

@Ashleypp1986 This has previously been proven not to be the case Ash.

Unfortunately, a tabloid newspaper has got hold of a music video I recorded in Islington North with an iconic grime artist I've admired for years.

They are planning to publish a heavily edited clip, so I'm releasing the full version myself. Watch here: https://t.co/vwNGQN2wqU

Oh, I see we’re revisiting the old classics.🙄

“Let’s cut down on managers in the NHS”

Why is this such a popular attack line?

Just the smallest amount of critical thinking will show what a nonsensical idea this is….

A little🧵 for you!
