There is pressure on Leicester City to get a result at Swansea this weekend, admits captain Wes Morgan.
City's defeat at Newcastle means they have only picked up one point from their last three games.
Morgan said there was now a real need to start earning points again after such an encouraging start.
After victories over Stoke and Manchester United, plus draws against Everton and Arsenal, Morgan believes City must get back to the level of performance they showed at the start of the season and not let that good start slip away.
"We want to pick up points in every game, but we haven't picked up three points for a while now," he said.
"The next game is going to be very important. We just have to get back to the kind of performances we produced in the first few games and pick up some points.
"The performances have been okay. You could put it down to bad luck but there are only so many times you can keep saying that.
"We have to convert the good performances into victories.
"It is a tough league and it is hard to pick up any points at all. We don't want to let it slip away."
Morgan admits City have conceded some soft goals in recent games and said it was something they must address in training.
City were on top at St James' Park when the Magpies broke from a corner to score the winner.
City also conceded three goals to set-pieces in the previous two games, against Crystal Palace and Burnley.
"We felt we were starting to turn the screw a little bit," said Morgan.
"We were getting closer to getting a goal. It is hard to take conceding a goal from our corner. It is something we will have to look at."
