Dennis Praet krijgt niets dan lof na sterk debuut: "Inbreng was cruciaal" en "Mag volgende week starten"

Praet viel pas zeventien minuten voor tijd in voor Choudhury, maar liet Leicester wel beter voetballen. Onder andere dankzij hem drongen de bezoekers nog stevig aan in de slotfase. Ze moesten uiteindelijk vrede nemen met een gelijkspel. Praet had zich wel meteen in de kijker gespeeld, zowel bij de Belgische voetballiefhebbers als aan de andere kant van Het Kanaal. Dat bleek uit de reacties op Twitter.

Am definitely liking the look of Dennis Praet, even the short time he played, can't wait for him to settle in.....

The introduction of Dennis Praet was pivotal. His pressure is very good and marks his man tightly. His decision-making his high quality and attempts tackles with low-risk & high-reward. 3-4 times he dispossessed a Chelsea attack within his 20 minutes - efficient. #CheLei

Dennis Praet quietly impressed when he came on. Bit of bite which I like as well as looking forward with the pass and being calm on the ball. Starts next week for me. #LCFC
