Leicester City ace James Maddison is delighted with his current form.

He credits his progress to Foxes manager Brendan Rodgers and his own desire to silence any critics.

"He [Brendan Rodgers] is a top-level manager, we are fortunate to have him here. Every single player is a better player under him, that is a fact. He cares about making you a better player," Maddison added.

"When you have a manager who goes beyond to make you a better player, it is a great thing.

"I want to be the best player James Maddison can be. The way I can do that is put pressure on myself. I want everyone questioning me because that is what drives me.

"Some people like to go under the radar - and that is not wrong - but, for me, I want my name in everyone's mouth.

"One of the things that has made me get a lot of goals and assists in the last few months is because I heard Jamie Carragher say my numbers weren't good enough. I didn't go into my shell after that, that was adding fuel to my engine.

"I always back myself and believe in myself because that has got me to where I am today."
