Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers is satisfied with their season form ahead of Sunday's clash with Aston Villa.

Leicester had maximum points after three games, having won 3-0 at West Brom, beaten Burnley 4-2 and stunned Manchester City 5-2 at the Etihad Stadium, before losing 3-0 at home to West Ham last time out.

Rodgers, whose side finished fifth last term, said: "The West Ham game was another lesson for us in the Premier League where if you are just off your level, you can lose.

"But over the course of the four games, there have been so many positives for us.

"You get bumps along the way, and it's how you respond to that. I don't think we saw that performance (against West Ham) coming. I know we're bitterly disappointed with it afterwards.

"It was hard because the players then go away on international duty. But we've regrouped again, and we'll look to get back to the level.

"We've shown lots of potential, but can we get that consistency into our game? That's a big aim for us this season."

Regarding Villa, he added: "They have players who can give you a problem if you are not at the top of your game. They scored seven (against Liverpool) and maybe felt they could have had got one or two more.

"It showed you've got to have that full concentration at this level or any team can punish you. No one sees the results coming - it was like us the week before at Manchester City. If you're not quite at the top of your game at this level, then you can come unstuck."
