Ranieri tries to rouse his free-falling Foxes

Manager Claudio Ranieri said his stricken Leicester City Foxes must stop hemorrhaging after Sunday's 2-0 loss at Swansea City left the reigning Premier League champion one point above the relegation zone.

Swansea defenders Alfie Mawson and Martin Olsson struck in the first half at Liberty Stadium to condemn Leicester to a fifth straight loss and 14th of the campaign.

The Foxes have gone six league games without scoring and Ranieri knows something must change if their title success is not to be followed by an ignominious demotion.
