Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers was happy seeing Wesley Fofana and Jonny Evans feature in their 1-1 draw with Manchester United.
Rodgers delighted to see them feature together for the first time since May. Rodgers also commented on Fofana, who is observing Ramadan - when Muslims do not eat or drink during the hours of daylight.
"It was very pleasing," Rodgers said. "Jonny's obviously just working his way back with 60-odd minutes. He had 60-off minutes with Northern Ireland as well. That's good because there's no other way to get him up to match speed other than to stick him in because we're not training an awful lot.
"Wesley, I've got to say, I was half expecting him to come off. I had in my mind that Çağs (Çağlar Söyüncü) would probably have to go on at some point because he's started Ramadan today. He hasn't eaten, hasn't drunk a thing, so to put in a performance of that durability shows his mental strength.
"To have those two guys in the team, it's gives us great authority."
