Leicester City midfielder Gokhan Inler posted a selfie on his official Twitter account in the lead up to this weekend’s critical encounter with Arsenal.

The Switzerland international has struggled to break into the first team since joining in the summer but looks to be in a buoyant mood.

Leicester can go eight points clear of Arsenal if they record a win over the North London based club on Sunday.

Inler has been left out of the squad for the Foxes last two games and has not featured in the last six league matches.

The 31-year-old may not be playing but teammate Kasper Schmeichel still had a kind word or two to say about him and stated that the Switzerland international of Turkish origin is probably the smartest player in the team.

When asked who he thought the most intelligent player on the team was he responded: “Definitely not Vards. I’d have to say Gokhan Inler.”
