Thomas Frank makes bizarre Leicester City claim as Brendan Rodgers reveals injury blow

Good morning, City fans! Here are your latest Leicester City headlines after yesterday's Premier League victory over Brentford.

Leicester City moved back into the top half of the Premier League table thanks to a pair of stunning strikes against Brentford.

Timothy Castagne picked out the top corner from 20 yards on his first appearance of the calendar year, and then James Maddison bent a free-kick into the top corner to give City a two-goal half-time lead.

Yoane Wissa struck five minutes before the end to set up an unnecessarily nervy finish for City, who had good control of the game while still needing Kasper Schmeichel to make a couple of important saves. Here's how we scored the players.

Wilfred Ndidi could miss the rest of the season with the knee injury he suffered in Rennes, Brendan Rodgers has revealed.

The defensive midfielder missed Sunday’s 2-1 victory over Brentford after hobbling off in Brittany following a 50-50 challenge, with Rodgers suggesting there was damage to his medial ligaments.

Following scans, it now looks like Ndidi’s season is over in what is a huge blow to City’s prospects at home and in particular in Europe, where they don’t have deputy Papy Mendy in the squad to come in. However, City will seek a second opinion on Ndidi to check the severity of the problem.

Brentford manager Thomas Frank believes Leicester City scored two goals from "zero chances" against his side on Sunday afternoon.

Timothy Castagne and James Maddison netted long-range efforts as City beat Brentford 2-1 at the King Power Stadium. Both goals flew into the top corner and saw Leicester go 2-1 up.

A late goal from Brentford's Yoane Wissa made it a nervy finish to the match, though City saw it out to pick up three points.
