Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers is happy to have Jonny Evans back on the pitch after defeat at home to Chelsea.

The Foxes lost 3-1 at the King Power stadium.

Able to welcome back Evans to the matchday squad following injury, the Northern Irish centre-back was introduced in the final few minutes of the contest and may play a role at Brentford next weekend following Wout Faes' red card.

“It's good for Jonny to get on and he's done really well," City's manager explained.

“It's just all about the moment and giving him the chance to get in, so we did that and it's good to get him back on the field."
