A number of Leicester City fans have taken to Twitter to praise James Justin’s performance for the Foxes in Saturday’s Premier League draw.

The versatile 22-year-old has been superb for Brendan Rodgers’ side this season, clocking up 21 appearances in all competitions including 15 in the Premier League.

Justin has already exceeded his appearance tally from the whole of last season (18) and is likely to give Rodgers a big selection headache when Ricardo returns from injury.

On Saturday, the England Under-21 international continued at right-back as Manchester United visited the King Power Stadium.

Although Justin was unfortunate for Marcus Rashford’s opener and perhaps should have tracked Bruno Fernandes for the second, he put in an otherwise superb display.

As per the Leicester Mercury, the £8million ace “timed his tackles excellently, used his pace well in defence and attack, got forward with confidence, and crossed dangerously”, earning an 8 out of 10 for his display.

Here is what some Foxes fans were saying about Justin during and after the game:

Leicester twice came from behind to pick up a point in the 2-2 draw as Harvey Barnes cancelled out Rashford’s opener before a late Jamie Vardy effort came off Axel Tuanzebe en route to the back of the Red Devils net.

Up next for the Premier League high flyers is Monday afternoon’s trip to Crystal Palace.
