Leicester boss Rodgers says Iheanacho in career best form after Man Utd brace

Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers says Kelechi Iheanacho is in the form of his life.

The Nigerian bagged a brace in the FA Cup quarter-final win over Manchester United on Sunday.

Iheanacho has now scored seven goals in his last four matches.

Asked if his striker was in career best-form, Rodgers replied: "I would think so. He's full of confidence.

"Any player, when you play with confidence, you play to a high level.

"It was great composure for the first goal, and the second, he's there in the right spot and gets the finish."
