Wilfred Ndidi says there were plenty of positives for relegation-threatened Leicester City to take from their 2-0 defeat to Arsenal at the weekend. The 19th-placed Foxes pushed the title-chasing Gunners all the way in their Premier League encounter in front of their home fans before succumbing to a late brace from Mikel Merino. With just nine minutes of the match remaining, Merino stole in for his first goal, before sealing the win just three minutes from time. It was Ndidi's first game back after being sidelined for the past three months with a hamstring injury, and he played 85 minutes before being replaced by Patson Daka.
