Leicester boss Rodgers: Lookman makes us more dangerous

Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers says Ademola Lookman will be better for his performance in defeat at Brighton.

Rodgers was encouraged by the winger's display.

He said, “It was just simplifying it. We brought a winger in. We were trying to get James (Maddison) in between the lines, it didn't quite work for us and that's no fault of his, that's my responsibility.

"Bringing Ade into the game as a natural winger who can come inside, he was able to combine much better and he looked a real threat for us.

"The rhythm of the team was much better."
