Leicester City suffered another frustrating afternoon at the King Power Stadium after falling to a humiliating 3-1 home defeat against Peterborough United on Saturday, October 10, 2026, with this Leicester city man among the players facing heavy criticism for his performance.
The defeat piled further pressure on Leicester manager Russell Martin, while Peterborough enjoyed a memorable victory in Robbie Savage’s first league match in charge.
The Foxes struggled to contain their opponents throughout the first half, with defensive mistakes proving costly as Peterborough repeatedly exposed their weaknesses. Thomas endured a particularly difficult afternoon, receiving a 2/10 rating after losing possession in the build-up to the visitors’ second goal.
The Leicester defender was dispossessed by Shofowoke, allowing Peterborough to capitalise on the mistake and extend their advantage. It was a costly error in a game where Leicester desperately needed composure and concentration at the back.

Thomas’ performance quickly became a talking point among frustrated supporters, with some questioning his commitment and demanding that he be dropped from the starting lineup.
Roy Keane said : “He should be dropped ASAP 😤””So unprofessional.”
“He literally gave up. He quit mid-game.”
“They need 11 players who’ll give a shit and put a shift in. Not fannies.”
The comments reflect the growing frustration among supporters, who want to see greater commitment, defensive discipline and a stronger response when the team comes under pressure.
Thomas was not the only Leicester player to struggle against Peterborough. Olabade Aluko received a 3/10 rating after being beaten by Edwards for the visitors’ opening goal before being substituted at half-time.
Warren O’Hora also endured a difficult afternoon, scoring an unfortunate own goal shortly before the break before being taken off early. Meanwhile, John Lundstram struggled to impose himself in midfield as Peterborough’s energetic pressing repeatedly caused problems for the hosts.
Emil Riis Jakobsen was one of the few Leicester players to emerge with some credit, earning a 6/10 rating and scoring the Foxes’ only goal of the afternoon.
For Russell Martin, the defeat represents another setback as pressure continues to build following Leicester’s disappointing performance in front of their home supporters.
The Foxes must now find a way to respond, with questions remaining over their defensive organisation, individual performances and ability to compete when opponents put them under sustained pressure.
