Ndidi fancies Leicester’s EPL chances

Following the poor start to the season, Wilfred Ndidi has admitted confidence has been low at Leicester City but insisted that the squad has plans to put it right.

City are currently rooted on the bottom of the Premier League table with just one point from their opening six games. There is increasing pressure on manager Brendan Rodgers from supporters and pundits alike, but Ndidi said the squad are very much together.

The Nigerian international said  they are ready to right the wrong, starting with tomorrow’s home game against Aston Villa at the King Power Stadium.

“To be honest, it (the start to the season) hasn’t been ourselves, like previous seasons,” Ndidi told BBC Radio Leicester.”The way we (usually) start the season, the way we just keep going.

“It’s not been what we really want. It’s obvious that we’ve not been ourselves, but the confidence has been low in those games. We’ll get there, to be honest. We’ll get there.”

On the unity within the squad, Ndidi said: “Of course. We know we’ve lost games and they’re not what we wanted, but we are still together. We know the fact we’ve got qualities in the team and know that we can still come up there (the table).

“There are many more games but the most important is the next game. We go for the next game, go for the other one, just to build confidence. That’s our plan: being together for each other and still keeping going.”
