Leicester City's interim boss Andy King told branded the Foxes capitulation against Southampton as "completely unacceptable" in his post-match interview with BBC Radio Leicester.
The East Midlands club were three goals up at half-time and leading 3-1 until the 81st minute, only to lose 4-3 in a sensational late collapse at the King Power Stadium.
"I want to start by apologising for that last half an hour. It was completely unacceptable," King said.
"Obviously, the feeling I have at the moment is sheer anger towards the performance. It will take a bit of time to process, I have to watch it back, see what happened but, yeah, passive and not good enough.
"Probably a lack of character, a lack of leadership, stuff we have said about before and it has been almost a pattern throughout the season where you do some good bits in good spells and then we almost have a spell of the game where we just go under.
"Like I say, I'm angry at the moment so I don't want to speak out of turn. I need to watch it back, I need to properly analyse it, I need a bit of time to reflect on it. Like I said, I fully apologise for it but that's all I'm sat with at the moment.
"You've seen today, probably, our season in a nutshell. You've seen some brilliant football, some goals, some really good stuff and then some stuff which is unacceptable and we have seen both sides of that today.
"Come out of another loss, some good stuff, but second half, last half an hour, from my point of view, like I keep saying, apologies. Completely unacceptable."
