- Foxes play Liverpool on Tuesday night after City on Sunday
- Bertrand latest player to be ruled out through injury
Brendan Rodgers says it is “ridiculous” that Leicester have to play Manchester City and Liverpool in 48 hours as he battles an ever-deepening injury crisis.
Ryan Bertrand is the latest Leicester player to become unavailable after he was injured during the warmup before Sunday’s 6-3 defeat at City, with Rodgers having to remove him from the substitutes’ list. The Leicester manager had been forced to name Jamie Vardy and Wilfred Ndidi on the bench despite the forward’s tight hamstring and midfielder’s accumulation of minutes.
