Brendan Rodgers says he is confident James Maddison will rediscover his top form after the Leicester boss held talks with his misfiring playmaker following difficult start to the season

Brendan Rodgers is confident James Maddison will recover top form after holding talks with his misfiring playmaker.

Maddison has not been at his best this term and after losing his place in the starting XI for last weekend's 2-2 draw with Burnley, he was also named among the substitutes for the 1-0 defeat by Legia Warsaw in the Europa League on Thursday.

His preparations for last season were curtailed due to the problem, which meant he did not start a league game until October.

Maddison then showed superb form in the winter, only for the hip to flare up again in February and sideline him for another five weeks.
