Injury updates on Leicester’s Vardy, Maddison and Dewsbury-Hall

Foxes of Leicester provide injury updates on Jamie Vardy, James Maddison and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall as the Foxes prepare to meet Roma in the Europa Conference League semifinal decider.

The most important moment of the Foxes’ campaign will culminate in one tie in Rome. A second leg matchup versus more than worthy opposition in the famous Italian club.

Will the intense and equally praised and criticised squad rotation pay off for the East Midlanders? It is difficult to assert that prediction, in Foxes of Leicester’s view. Though, while being as nervous as before any other huge encounter, we are actually quietly confident.

Two crucial players who were rested due to apparent slight problems with regard to fitness, are James Maddison and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall. I think most of the Blue Army assumed they were just given a break for the Tottenham Hotspur game like many other starting XI personnel.

Thankfully the Leicester pair returned to training prior to flying to Italy. A press conference brief from Brendan Rodgers contained further positive news on Jamie Vardy:

"“They’re [Maddison and Dewsbury-Hall are] okay. They trained yesterday and came through well.”On Jamie Vardy’s condition, meanwhile, Rodgers confirmed: “He’s coming through well, so he’s okay for the game.”lcfc.com"

In the presser, Rodgers was also asked about his team’s mentality going into the contest with the Romans. In response, the Northern Irishman wisely said that it will be the same strong mindset which got the side to the semifinals.

Happily, the boss said his men know how to get the job done; in addition, he hopes for a similar display to the Rennes and PSV Eindhoven matches. Rodgers expects the counterattack to be a prevalent Jose Mourinho method. However, the Yellows and Reds’ set-pieces will worry the gaffer and LCFC fans most of all.

When focus was enquired over, ‘BR’ claimed that in order to be triumphant on a particularly tough occasion, an outfit should try to enjoy it. What the former Liverpool chief means is relaxing and playing with the style one is comfortable with is the best way to extract the best performances.
