Brendan Rodgers had a full mix of a squad, including young faces such as Vontae Daley-Campbell and Callum Wright, both starting the game. The two teenagers had a “look in” as a number of players are still absent and will return back next week. Ayoze Perez was not involved, not Rachid Ghezzal or Eldin Jakupovic…

Scunthorpe United 0, Leicester City 1, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report
The first game of pre-season is always one fans are looking forward to. Any answers or just a day for a first opportunity to find out how you stand in front of a new season. Brendan Rodgers fielded a first half 11 without Harry Maguire, which is a clear indication of how this is going…
Leicester 0, Chelsea 0, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report
Brendan Rodgers fielded a team with few surprises. Hamza Choudhury keeping his place, with Harvey Barnes left on the bench. So it was a team perfectly balanced to take on an opponent like Chelsea.

Leicester 3, Arsenal 0, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report
Brendan Rodgers fielded a team with a few surprises. Would have thought that Harvey Barnes would start instead of Demarai Gray, but both were dropped to the bench. Sensible to chose a more defensive team, playing Hamza Choudhury as a third midfielder, wide. The surprise of Hamza Choudhury returning to the first team worked brilliantly…
West Ham 2, Leicester 2, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report
Brendan Rodgers made two changes to the line up that was defeated at home to Newcastle, giving Marc Albrighton a starting position and also dropping captain Wes Morgan and chipping in Jonny Evans. Nothing dramatic about that, but in a way no need for it either, so the first half became a bit boring and…
Leicester 0, Newcastle 1, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report
Rafael Benitez came to Leicester with one goal, to try to frustrate Leicester with their own medicine, counter attacking and just sitting back with 10 men. He had a clear game plan that worked from the first minute. Brendan Rodgers fielded a team that really was just not equipped to tear Newcastle apart and all…
Huddersfield 1, Leicester 4, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report
With Jonny Evans out, and Harry Maguire also given leave due to family reasons. It was nice to see Brendan Rodgers just slotting in Caglar Soyuncu in that open central defense position. This is the way to work around the squad. A good start and what a goal from Youri Tielemans opening the goalscoring after…
Leicester 2, Bournemouth 0, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report
Again a team picked that was obvious, and when everything is obvious you just roll on as Brendan Rodgers did. With Harry Maguire out, Wes Morgan was slotted in and the team was as we have seen great balanced. Wes Morgan made the most out of this performance as well, scoring his 2nd goal in…
Burnley 1, Leicester 2, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report
To be present at a game is always great for us travelling from over the sea, and going on away games and being in the stands with other Leicester City fans is just fantastic. All so loyal and fox fanatics, giving the support we all just love to see. The team was again spot on,…
Leicester 3, Fulham 1, positives and negatives, player ratings and match report
The team was back to basics, 4-4-1-1, and as we played against Brighton. No fuzz, just basics and playing players in the positions they should, great to watch, continue with that Brendan Rodgers. The start was ok and a bit of back and forward before a great combination of play started by Ndidi, finding Vardy…
