Players you disliked, but reluctantly rated...

Surprised no-one's mentioned Kermorgant yet. He was decent.

 

On a serious note, Simpson is a great shout. 

There are a few examples of players who've messed up off the pitch like Hamza, Collymore, W. Brown.

 

Neil Lennon is a player I never took to and I've found him dislikeable since he went to Celtic, but he was obviously a great player for us.

Was going to say Lennon myself,  always thought he was a horrible little 💩 but was such a good player.

A lot of people are not getting the bit that you have to rate the player not just dislike them.

 

Chilwell for checking out when he knew he was going to Chelsea but still collecting a pay cheque, being a bit of a wimp, scared to take a throw in, unnecessarily and overconfidently relishing the prospect of beating us and just being a bit too in love with himself.

 

Soyuncu for feigning injury at Spurs, being rightly dropped for it  and then sulking for the rest of the season as we struggled on to relegation with Calamity Amartey in his stead.  Various meltdowns, such as Bournemouth.

 

Mahrez for going on strike, badmouthing us and claiming that he lost two years to us as if he were being held in a cellar somewhere rather than being paid very handsomely to play football as per the terms of the contract the had signed and failing to recognise that we gave him the stage.

 

Perez for being Perez and the most frustrating player I ever saw and one that seemed to find it very difficult just to stay upright.  I've broken the rule myself here as I definitely never rated him.  That miss v Chelsea!  A weak link in a very good team who's greatest contribution was an accidental pre-assist in the cup final.

 

Perez again.  Deserves mentioning twice.

Kasper, he came over as aloof and arrogant. 
 

I can’t remember who it was, but one of our ex players referred to him as hard work at times. 
 

Not going on the pitch for Vardys last game just said to me he was still trying to create a little headline for himself even though it was all about Vards. 

He wasn't there at the end to go on the pitch. Had prior plans and had to be on a flight.

Met him a few times in O Bar, he’s a decent bloke, but he does come across as a bit sulky.

He got a penalty against us in a play off final. Hated him for it. When he joined that changed and his will to win added to a bit of talent and he won me over. Horrible to play against.

Not a Leicester player but I always hated Jota at Liverpool always scored or played well against us. Wound us up with the diving or going OTT at us LCFC fans.

 

Always rated him though was a great player for them, R.I.P.

I have to disagree. His body language said it all that season. 

Always performed on the pitch

 

12 goals and 10 assists in his last season with us

One game back in the late 90s we played Southampton, after the game we had a beer in the players lounge , there was some ex players in there notably Peter Shilton, he was very pleasant, actor Bill Maynard was there what a guy , so down to earth , a bit later all the players came in, Muzzy was brilliant with us as for  Lennon, he was miserable and ignorant , and we had won the game as well

Assume Vardy would be on most of these lists for other clubs

Peter Shilton was nice guy , he was over our way often and random fact my dad taught him how to play Crib .

Could have gone on at half time maybe? Some of the lads did.

I never liked Danny Simpson for what the charges against him. I never liked Maddisons attitude in general, but couldn't deny he could put a shift in when he wanted to. 

 

Maguire's brother being a ***** to fans on Insta when he was leaving always wound me up too whilst I am venting.

Always thought Chilwell was a bit of a fanny when he played for us. Compounded by leaving and saying he’d rather beat us in the cup final than win the Champions League - ****ing dolt 

For someone that came through the academy he basically had no affection or affiliation for the club
