Not watching, what happened? 

[Cincinnati Fox]

Nothing obvious, won the ball, beat a man, squared the ball and had to stop quickly to avoid hitting advertising boards

[420Hashish]

What happened to him? Wasn't watching but saw that he was subbed off early.

Those boards are more trouble than they are worth, you clatter into one of them and it can be very serious.

Hamstring strapped up

If it’s just the hamstring, then the international break comes at a great time - although Foxes hammies seem to take a long time to heal (see Castagne and Praet last season).

 

Shame for Ricky though, as he has just been recalled to the Portugal national team after a long time out.

Better than what I thought initially when it looked like they might be testing his knee

[Lambert09]

He walked off so definitely muscle rather than knee... they wouldn’t take that chance with him after his previous injury

Can you strap a hamstring up? Thigh was strapped with padding, suggesting ice. If so, that's a thigh pull and hopefully not too bad

Not trying to be alarmist but didnt he walk off when he did his ACL? Not that it's that type of injury this time.

Played through the rest of the match it happened

Isn't there a delayed reaction with that type of injury? If you pull a muscle you are going to know straight away.

You’re right but I think because of his previous, the staff would be more aware of it. 

[KFS]

He got up to throw the ball back in the second half. Hope that means it was just a precaution 

[turlo]

Rodgers confirmed it was his hamstring. Awaiting scans no timelines

[Ric Flair]

So frustrating, just a horrible reminder we've 2 other players these repeated knock on injuries might occur to and the best part of £150m worth of talent vanish between our eyes.

[Hammo]

Why do our injuries always happen to players when they are in prime form? This year alone: Vardy, Praet, Justin, Barnes, Maddison, Evans, Fofana (twice) and now Ricardo. Unreal.

Can we still blame Dave Rennie?

When I tore my ACL, it was an instant reaction. I felt a snap in my knee and it was extremely painful. Felt like my knee had caught on fire. I lost all balance and power in my leg and my knee was moving awkwardly and impossible to bend afterwards until I underwent surgery.

guess each case is different, i ran mine off and finished the last 20 mins, got tight in the evening and couldn't walk the next morning

All different. Speaking from experience my knee went completely and made a grim noise. But then you've seen guys like Ricardo and Benjamin Mendy who were able to play on or walk on it no probs yet they still do it.

 

Again, speaking from experience they did the right thing by pulling him off if it was his thigh/hammy. Pulled my thigh a little bit, played on and caused me to do my knee q second time. Of course all this has stopped me becoming a Leicester City stalwart... Or maybe a sign that I was too crap to play football anymore

Was yours a partial or complete tear? The severity along with which one of the 4 were torn probably makes a difference

I'm more happy if it's not his knee. 

[happy85]

It was a tweak so didn’t want to take no risk. 
 

Will be a short injury imo less than 3 weeks
