Leicester captain Schmeichel full of praise for Dewsbury-Hall over recent form

Leicester City captain Kasper Schmeichel is full of praise for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall over his recent form.

Schmeichel was asked about the midfielder this morning ahead of tomorrow's Europa Conference League clash with PSV.

The Dane said, "Kiernan's done incredible well this season, and it's important he's given time and the space to improve and mature.

"We've got a player on our hands if he's able to be kept out of the press limelight."

On reaching the final eight, Schmeichel also said: "It's the type of games you want to play in, you want to relish the big occasion. "The important thing is to not play the occasion, play the game. Concentrate, as you've done all your life, the game will take care of itself."
