LCFC most famous 11

[FoxinNotts]

Bit bored, so thought I’d have a go at writing down our most world recognised starting 11. Just a bit of fun, for debate. Not much criteria, just the 11 through out our history which are regarded as being ‘house hold names’. Here’s my attempt:

 

4-3-1-2

 

Banks

Kåmark Keown Evans Fuchs 

Mancini Kante Cambiasso 

Mahrez 

Vardy Lineker 

 

 

[Facecloth]

Schmeichel

 

Simpson

Huth

Morgan

Fuchs

 

Albrighton

Kante

Drinkwater

Mahrez

 

Okazaki

Vardy

So, for example, does anyone really think Danny Drinkwater is more of a household name (globally) than Roberto Mancini or Esteban Cambiasso?......The answer is no. 5/10 for effort

Some great shouts there! Good call on Kane, whilst keeping Lineker and Vardy

Russel Osman - Of Escape to Victory fame instead of Keown.

 

Frank McLintock Captain of Arsenals Double winning team of 1969/70 agian instead of Keown.

 

Keown should never be included in any positive LCFC team he was a disgrace to the blue shirt.

Agree to an extent, quite a famous name though

I guess it depends on your age but McLintock As Captain of a double winning team that Keown played beats it for me as does 'film star' Osman

[dayday]

Never seen either play but the generations above me loved Keith Weller and Frank Worthington, how good were they?

[David Hankey]

Arthur Chandler & Arthur Rowley need to be included. If you don't know who they are, google them.

If that many people have to google them then surely they aren't for this team

Are you saying folk don't know the history of their Club? Just to remind you and others we've been going since 1884!!

[tom27111]

I'd have thought Manchester United captain, Harry Maguire, is more well known than any of the centre backs already named?

It’s not that, Facecloth is merely pointing out that those names are not household global stars, as per the (admittedly very loose) criteria

Probably right

The two I mentioned were household names and stars in their day. You have only to look at their records unlike the "one season wonders" some have listed.

[HesNotGudjonsonn2]

Banks

 

Shilton

Schmeichel

Flowers

Schwarzer

Walker

 

Kalac

Keller

Arphexad

 

Ward

Ricardo

Zieler

 

 

Nobody mentioned they had to be in their usual position.

But that's not what he's asking. Cambiasso has won pretty much everything at club level, played in Spain, England and italy, for his national side.

 

I bet hardly anyone outside the UK knows the 2 you have mentioned.

Leicester Legends of the game yes. But I'm guessing not so well know in Argentina or Italy for example.

[tom27111]

Do they have to have played for the first team?

 

Matt Smith is arguably the most famous of all! 

[Toddybad]

Chilwell is probably more famous than Fuchs being an England player?
