(Reuters) - Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers suggested he may not get the credit he deserves for masterminding his team's 4-1 victory over Leeds United on Monday because he's British.

Youri Tielemans struck twice, with Jamie Vardy and Harvey Barnes also getting on the score sheet as Leicester crushed Marcelo Bielsa's side to move up to second in the Premier League with 15 points, one point behind leaders Liverpool.
