Leicester boss Rodgers delighted with "three very, very important victories' in a week

Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers was delighted with victory over Brentford.

It's now three wins in a row for Leicester, who have also secured successes over Manchester United and Spartak Moscow over the past eight days.

"They are three different types of performances," the City manager told LCFC TV in the capital. "They were very, very important victories for us.

"The players deserve a huge amount of credit. Today was always going to be a huge test of the resilience and the mentality in the team.

"You can just see, with the long travel to Europe, coming back, at times there was that little bit of freshness and energy missing at times with the ball. You can't take anything away from the mentality when we didn't have it. It was a great victory for us."
