Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers was left upset with reporters after their 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace.

The stalemate draw with the Eagles ensured Leicester now have their lowest point tally after 10 games since the 1983-84 campaign.

Scrutiny from fans has been growing on Rodgers but club owner Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha has so far kept faith in the Northern Irishman.

Asked whether reports of him being on £10million-per-year are accurate and whether this means he's too expensive to sack, Rodgers replied: "I have read on the news what I am supposed to be on and I know for sure that is a total fabrication.

"It's nowhere near. I actually think it is a disrespectful question, very disrespectful. I never asked you how much money you are on or whether there is any blockage in your role from your owners.

"I don't think you need to worry about my wages. If there is a stumbling block in anything, you need to ask the owners that. It's a disgraceful question."
