Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers is delighted with the early impact of Victor Kristiansen.

The defender, a January arrival from FC Copenhagen, has played a key role in Leicester's recent revival.

Rodgers, after victory over Aston Villa, said, "Victor is full of enthusiasm. He has a good energy.

"I have to be careful with him because it was the off-season in Denmark.

"The plan was for him to play 60-65 minutes, but he just continued.

"I have to take care of him so he doesn't get hurt. In Denmark, he had still only been in training. But he is really good."
