Player to Watch: Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall
It has been a terrific season for the 25-year-old Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, as he has been the second-best scorer for Leicester this campaign as a central midfielder, which is impressive enough. He has scored 12 goals and added a tally of 13 assists.
Dewsbury-Hall was raised at Leicester's academy before being loaned out on a couple of occasions. He made a full transfer to the senior team three years ago. However, the current season has been the best thus far as he was given plenty of opportunities to prove himself.
