Leicester boss Rodgers admits he's a fan of Aston Villa captain Grealish

Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers admits he's a fan of Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish.

For today's clash, Rodgers is wary of Grealish - who is earning rave reviews for his displays this season following the club's promotion to the top flight.

"I've spoken to him a little bit and he's a really good boy," said Rodgers.

"He's a wonderful player who is playing the game with great maturity.

"Jack has always had that big talent, and he's a real talisman for them, someone who can make a pass and is very creative. He's a player we have to be mindful of."
