Amid a dark, dismal start to Leicester City’s season, James Maddison has been their shining light.
And on Monday night, it was the artful England outcast who inspired the Foxes to a first Premier League win as Nottingham Forest were put to the sword to ease the pressure on Brendan Rodgers. "An outstanding player in fantastic form," declared Gary Neville on Sky Sports.
One point from seven games, featuring 11 conceded in their last two, had seen Rodgers position called into question. Some suggest he’s only still in the job because they cannot afford to sack him amid financial constraints. Others have claimed he’s been keen to go for a while questioning his body language during the thrashings at Brighton and Tottenham Hotspur.
