Leicester City defender Jack Hobbs has promised that the team has banished any thoughts of late heartbreak in the next few games.

The Foxes have made a habit this season of conceding late goals, and they proved particularly costly in the matches against Brighton and Swindon Town.

Hobbs told the Leicester Mercury: "We've been through it and, if there are to be late goals, they should be at the other end this time.

"I think we just needed to kill off the Swindon game. We sat too deep, perhaps, and invited pressure on ourselves.

"But we've debriefed, looked at the clips of that game - and the ones against Brighton and Huddersfield - and hopefully, if it comes to that, we're going to stop it this time."
