New Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers admits he wants to build their attack around Jamie Vardy.

Rodgers has carefully explained how he plans on getting the best out of Vardy.

"If you watch Leicester in their title-winning season, the space was there and Jamie could run into it," he said. "But part of his evolution as a player is to be able to play when the spaces are tight.

"Of course, some teams may choose to do that - maybe teams in the middle or towards the bottom of the league. They don't want to leave the space, but you have to find a way.

"Find a way to break through that defensive block, find ways to give him opportunities to score because he can score goals. There is absolutely no question about that.

"When I've watched Leicester of late and they counter-attack, the ball is coming up direct and it's one against four. We need to get players closer to him.

"He's absolutely clinical. This guy's a goalscorer, he's done it all his life through non-league, but he has to get the service.

"It's my job to formulate a game plan that allows us to exploit his talents, as well as the talents of the other players. We will never rely solely on Jamie, it's up to others also."
