Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers found some positives in defeat to Manchester City.
Rodgers felt Leicester City did not reach the same levels as those they displayed in their last outing, given seven of the players that started against Man City played for their nations over the international break.
“We weren't as efficient with the ball, but also, we're coming off some of the players [having done] a lot of travel and a lot of games internationally," he said.
“I felt there was just that little bit of… if you compare that to Manchester United, our level wasn't quite at the same level. We just have to accept that. It's disappointing, but we lost to a top team."
Reflecting on James Maddison and Ricardo Pereira's return to the side, Rodgers added: “It's great to have those two players back. This time last year, we lost players, but getting them back for this game was very good."
