Claude Puel's use of tactics in Leicester City's defeat to Newcastle United has reportedly caused strain among certain members of his squad.
The Foxes suffered a surprise 2-1 loss at the King Power Stadium on Saturday afternoon to make it four wins in their last 15 Premier League matches.
According to the Daily Mail, Puel's relationship with his players is said to be under scrutiny due to his approach to certain matches and a number of curious selection decisions.
Leicester's hopes of finishing seventh and competing in the Europa League next season are now thin, with next opponents Burnley six points better off.
The same report suggests that Puel is under no immediate pressure from City chiefs, however, after achieving his initial task of guiding the club away from relegation trouble when replacing Craig Shakespeare.
