Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers says the improvements of James Maddison is all down to the player.

The 25-year-old has notched 17 goals in all competitions this term for the east Midlands men, with Rodgers impressed with his honesty and hard graft.

“Listen, it's all down to the player; what I've always tried to be with players, I always like to be clear and give them clarity on where they need to improve," said Rodgers.

“He's the type of boy that you can do that with, he's very honest.

“Some players you do that and they won't speak to you for 10 years.

“But he's a kid that, you can tell him, he's a young man now that's maturing all the time.

“He was in a vulnerable place, but he showed great courage to recognise that.

“And it's just about stripping back his game, and getting fundamentally the work into his legs, and focusing on that. And everything else then comes with James.

“Because he's so talented, I love watching him play and I really enjoy seeing him in games, taking the ball, and how he can manoeuvre past top players, the threat he has, the confidence he has."
