Demarai Gray could do with more playing time

It wasn’t until the hour mark that Demarai Gray got his chance to step on the pitch, but as soon as he came on, he was full of life and looked like making instant impact. Unfortunately, he couldn’t do much to prevent an inevitable defeat, but he did show signs of a player who the Foxes can rely upon as a starter.

In his little cameo, he had pace, the skills to go with it, the eagerness to take the shot, and the vision to create, as a wonderful cross with a goal written all over it failed to find its way into the back of the net – thanks to Andy King. Shakey needs to stop ignoring him, because if he won’t play, he won’t develop.
