Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers says his team will keep an eye on Victor Moses in Wednesday’s (today) UEFA Europa League clash against Spartak Moscow , reports Completesports.com.
Moses worked under Rodgers during his loan spell at Liverpool in the 2013/2014 season.
Rodgers insists the Foxes must stop the winger if they want a positive result from the game.

“When you go to Napoli and win, they showed they have a lot of quality. I know Victor Moses very well and if he’s out here playing that’s because he is playing for a very good team. We anticipate a difficult game,”Rodgers told a press conference.
“I’m very impressed with Spartak play, how they want to play. They have dynamic players up front and creative players in midfield. Victor is within that, but he’s one of a number of good players.”
“I had Victor on loan and he was a really good player for me. He probably didn’t play as much as he would have liked, but when he did play, he made an impact. With Chelsea as well, he’s played at two great clubs. I know the threat he has, so we’ll have to keep an eye on him.”
A point from the opening two fixtures has left City bottom of their group, and they must now likely win three of their four remaining fixtures to reach the knockout rounds.

Moses is an opponent’s nightmare and for Coach Rodgers, he understands. From the flanks, moses is naturally gifted to run in, rattle any defence and occasionally foray into the mid field to assist attack. With his colleagues, though wasn’t that easy, the much hyped Napoli was defeated. Though the match against Leicester is surely between one SE player as against Lookman and Kelechi on the other hand, I see Moses’s Spartak Moscow emerging winner.
