A decade on from their Premier League title triumph, Leicester now face the grim prospect of mid-table obscurity in the second tier, currently on course for their lowest finish since 2012. December began brightly with seven points from three games, but optimism was dented by a crushing 4-1 loss at Loftus Road on Saturday. Four first-half goals from QPR condemned Marti Cifuentes's side to their seventh defeat of the season, leaving them 13th in the table and four points adrift of the playoff spots.

Bayern Munich sold youngster Nestory Irankunda this summer to Watford, but nested in the deal was a favorable buy-back option for the Bavarians. That's according to a report from Sport Bild, as captured by @iMiaSanMia_GER: Bayern has a buy-back clause for Nestory Irankunda of 4.5-5 million €. He was sold to FC Watford in the summer for 3 million €. [Bayern-Insider, @cfbayern, @altobelli13]

Bola tucked a neat finish beneath Manchester United loanee Radek Vitek in the sixth minute, having latched onto a pinpoint over-the-top pass from captain Imran Louza. Vitek then made a good save to deny Edo Kayembe as Watford pressed for a second goal, but the visitors struck against the run of play when Twine looked for the near post with a curling free-kick from the left corner of the area, catching out goalkeeper Egil Selvik.
