How long did Ricardo's luck last?



It seemed that everything is going well, since has Ricardo signed a contract with Leicester City back in January and finally started to play again after sitting on the bench in Betis for almost 1,5 year.

Somehow I lost a track on him lately so it came as a surprise to me, when I turned on TV a week ago to watch Leicester game against Reading, to discover that Ricardo was not in the first squad. He was replaced by Chris Weale.

His stats doesn't look bad. In eight games he started he kept two clean sheets and made 24 saves in total. He did quite well in those game I saw him.

Overall with Ricardo in the squad Leicester noted three wins, one draw, and lost four times. Did he commit any mistakes in those four games? Apparently the coach did think so, if he replaced him.

Wonder if he is going to come back before the end of the season? But then again, they are only three games till the end. Leicester is on the 12th place in the table. It seems that they already missed they chance to play in play-offs for the Premier League...

Pity that Ricardo's time in Englad lasted for such a short time.
