Brendan Rodgers aims dig at flop Iheanacho

Leicester City Boss BRENDAN Rodgers has aimed a slight dig at Kelechi Iheanacho for his shocking miss against Manchester city in the week 37 of the English Premier League on Monday.

Vincent Kompany gave the Citizens the lead with a powerful 30-yard effort.

But the former Liverpool coach slammed the Super Eagles striker after the game, and admitted that the mistake cost them the game.

“He should score, I said that to him afterwards, in the big games there are not many moments,” Rodgers said in his press conference.

“It was tight, we were very, very good in our defensive organisations. They didn’t have many chances and we didn’t have many. But the one that came, you have to score that. He knows.
The coach, who has been standing behind Iheanacho following his below-par performance in recent times however, described the player as a diligent striker.
