Leicester 2-1 Brighton: Foxes squad ‘in awe’ of Brendan Rodgers during post-match speech
Brendan Rodgers gave a rousing speech to his new players following Leicester’s defeat of Brighton which left the Foxes’ squad in ‘awe’.Rodgers was appointed Leicester’s new manager on Tuesday, with the former Swansea and Liverpool boss departing Celtic to succeed Claude Puel at the King Power Stadium.2

Rodgers was in the stands for Leicester’s defeat of Brighton

He watched from the stands as his new side secured a gritty 2-1 win over the Seagulls last night, with Rodgers officially starting work today ahead of his debut against Watford on Sunday.Demarai Gray and Jamie Vardy struck for the Foxes with Davy Propper pulling a goal back, but Leicester hung on to rise to 10th in the Premier League.And Mike Stowell, who took charge of Leicester on Tuesday evening in a caretaker role, revealed Rodgers spoke to the squad afterwards and left an instant impression. Stowell said: “He’s just come into the dressing room after the game. He was very positive, bouncing. We’re all desperate to start working with him.“He said before that he was just going to leave it and observe from up there. He said call the subs yourself and just get on with it but he’s going to bring something special to the club.“He spoke and the lads were in awe listening to him. He said ‘I’ve only left to come here for one reason and that’s to work with this group of players’. That speaks volumes for this young group of players.”2

Leicester reportedly paid Celtic 6million to hire Rodgers

Gray scored Leicester’s earliest Premier League goal of the season after 10 minutes but the hosts had to wait until the 63rd minute to double their advantage when Vardy drilled in.Glenn Murray had earlier missed a sitter with Brighton trailing 1-0 but Propper made it 2-1 within three minutes of Vardy’s strike as Rodgers watched his side hang on to claim a first home win since Boxing Day.
