14 years ago today saw the return of the much loved Leicester manager – Nigel Pearson. One of the last of the old school, hard managers, he sorted out the mess left by Sven and built one of Leicester’s greatest sides by 2015. Just look at the change in the quality of the team from his first game in 2011 – Schmeichel, Peltier (Abe), St Ledger, Mills, Konchesky, Gallagher, King, Dyer, Wellens, Beckford (Schlupp), Nugent (Howard) to his last in 2015 – Schmeichel, Wasilewski (De Laet), Huth, Morgan, Albrighton, Cambiasso (Drinkwater), King, Schlupp, Mahrez, Ulloa, Vardy (Kramaric.) Ranieri took them to the next level, but Pearson built the majority of the team in just three and a half very canny years.
