Brendan Rodgers rested Jamie Vardy and James Maddison and just slotted in Dennis Praet and Ayoze Perez and to TCF’s delight just did the basics and natural move, though we would like Papy Mendy any day of the week instead of Dennis Praet, but anyway it worked so great and it was all the balance…

Crystal Palace 1, Leicester 1, positives and negatives, player ratings, and match report

Leicester 2, Man Utd 2, positives and negatives, player ratings, and match report
Brendan Rodgers fielded the same team as against Spurs and would agree to that as a clever plan, and to keep 4-3-3 is the most important as Leicester made a competitive start, but it was Man Utd who striked first with a Marcus Rashford goal after 23 minutes.

Leicester 0, Everton 2, positives and negatives, player ratings, and match report
Strangely Brendan Rodgers changed his tactics against Everton and did not lay any trust in the work done so splendid against Brighton and his tactics again made it difficult to get the grip of the game as Everton showed great quality through two halves.

Zorya 1, Leicester 0, positives and negatives, player ratings, and match report
Brendan Rodgers fielded a team of a new mix and giving more players the opportunity is of course good. Wilfred Ndidi and Caglar Coyuncu were both starting, starts also to Danny Ward and Wes Morgan, Kelechi Iheanacho and Chengiz Under. The game had little or no special importance with Leicester through to the next stage,…
