Popov is probably better than Ayew.

That's nonsense, you only need to look at the England XI to see multiple players who dont fit that description. Kane, Bowen, Dan Burn, Eze took a few seasons to get started at championship level, our own Vardy.

I wonder how many fans who arent happy with Nelson's performances will be unhappy when he forces a move or runs down his contract to join a better club.

Faes has had games where he stopped trying to defend when we went 2-0 down. Nelson has never been that bad.

Good yesterday. Bit premature to call him the best midfielder in the league considering his average performance this season.

Performances have been better under Rowett, hopefully we convert them into points sooner rather than later.

Ok so we are comparing our own talents with the academy players of a club who can pick and choose the best from other academies. Still reinforces the point that Mukasa being good does not downplay the talent of Page and Monga.

Man City have an excellent academy that in recent years has produced many champions league quality players like Foden, Palmer, Nico o reilly. From a leicester perspective our best talents in recent years are Barnes, Dewsbury Hall, Chilwell who are PL level but are obviously not as good as the Man City ones. Man City having a 18 year old academy player who's better than ours shouldnt be surprising, it doesnt take away from the fact that Monga and Page, who are still only 17 and 16 are some of the best players we have produced in a long time. I wonder how good Mukasa was when he was Monga's age.

Evans on the bench for Northampton.

Alves starting for Huddersfield btw

First point in 5 games, it's an improvement sadly

Winks is quietly having a truly awful Leicester career. From looking untouchable at the start of 23/24 to looking out of his depth at the bottom of the championship.

Nelson under Rowett at Oxford had no issues with keeping it tight defensively at this level. There is something very wrong with this club and team where it's significantly harder to play well.

Same with Cifuentes and RVN, not much you can do with this group of players.

*worse

No fatawu either

Came off the bench a couple times and looked ok in limited minutes. Started once in the papa John's trophy on the wing and looked like a good goal threat, he scored but went a bit early on his run.

1. Starting from next season we will have barely any first team players. 2. Most of our players are playing at a league one level with a couple high performers like James and Fatawu keeping us afloat. So we're talking about a player who should have been loaned to league one because he's too good for league two and comparing him to players who should be playing in league one because theyre not good enough for the championship. He's not that far off most of our first team really. 3. 9 months ago we were in the Premier league and charlton were in league one, a two division difference, now Chartlon have recently beaten us at home and are above us in the table. Two divisions is not insurmountable.

We're not in the prem anymore where we have Maddison and Tielemans. He looks around the same as what we have on low wages and is still young.

I think awful is a strong word for a player who has largely played well despite being partnered with Vestergaard and Okoli for the most part. At the very least, even if he plays just as badly as Faes, Vestergaard and Okoli he is young and only on relatively low wages, which still makes him an upgrade. As an added benefit he also plays better than those three on average.

BCDR is a good goal scorer but he has probably lost us more points this season by losing the ball too easily in midfield. Page on the other hand is not as composed in front of goal but he loses the ball a lot less.

He does make defensive errors but so does everyone else. This team desperately needs extra athleticism, especially in the fullback position, which Aluko provides. Aluko is also young so with gametime he is more likely to iron out those mistakes, whereas in Ricky's case he seems to be getting more error prone each week.

Staying up and Top and Rudkin staying is preferable to the scenario where we go down and go bankrupt. Although the catch is that if Top and Rudkin stay in position then we are almost guaranteed to go down given enough time so it might end up in the same result. Sadly I think we have to come to terms with the looming reality that we might be seeing the end of Leicester City.

Good for him if he's playing well at his new club. We have seen enough of Faes in a Leicester shirt to know that if he was still here nothing would be different.

It was the same in 22/23, our highlight real from that season would make you think we finished top 6.
