Leicester City may have finally stopped the bleeding with a much-needed result against Southampton, but Andy King has made it clear — the real battle is far from over.

After what he described as a “bad week” for the Foxes, the former club captain didn’t hold back. While the victory brought relief, King warned that arrogance could quietly undo any progress the team hopes to make.

“We can’t afford to think we’re bigger than the situation,” King reportedly cautioned, suggesting that complacency may have played a role in recent struggles. The win over Southampton might have eased immediate pressure, but for King, it’s about mentality — not just moments.

And it wasn’t just the players under scrutiny.

In a candid assessment, King hinted that the atmosphere around the club hasn’t helped either. According to him, frustration from the stands has sometimes crossed into negativity — something he believes can weigh heavily on a squad already searching for confidence.

Are Leicester battling opponents — or themselves?

Has expectation turned into entitlement?

And can unity be rebuilt before it’s too late?

One thing is certain: the result against Southampton may have closed a difficult chapter, but King’s message suggests the story is only just beginning.

The tension with supporters also adds another layer. While fans demand better performances

rightly so constant frustration from the stands can create a nervous energy. Players feel it. Passes become rushed. Confidence dips. Mistakes multiply.
