Paul Dickov - the terrier/pest style is what a lot of people recognise, but he was excellent as a poacher, bringing the ball down, holding it up. Some of his goals for us, in a poor side were excellent. Rarely had a bad game in his 'proper' spell with us, great attitude.

He was so good at closing down or nicking the ball off the opposition full back after a long ball forward. Offensively we were pretty one dimensional under Adams but it worked so well because of Dickov.

Cottee

 

Cottee was a very talented player. Dare I suggest he was a better finisher at his peak than Vardy, though obviously not a better all round player. Like Vards he had a superb understanding of space, but the kinds of balls he was latching on to were much more varied and unrefined.

Didn't his miss a penalty that could have saved us from relegation?

Keller is an interesting pick because after him we had Flowers. Quite a few people have picked Flowers. 

 

I think, at his peak, Flowers was probably a better keeper. But I believe we got Flowers slightly after his peak whereas Keller was absolutely at the top of his game. 
 

So, in terms of purely what they did for Leicester, I’d have Keller slightly ahead of Flowers. 👍

Keller was maybe the most inconsistent GK I've seen for us. Made some unbelievable saves especially in his first season with us but made a lot of errors too.

I was in my early teens and too young to fully appreciate Gary Mac, I remember him missing a few penalties for us, but he and Ali were two great signings. I can still see his face as he tapped in from 2 yards at home to Oxford after their keeper had got into a tangle with his defender, he was laughing his head off in front of pen 3 as he rolled it into the net.

I loved Keller and I loved Flowers even more (he offered me his sandwich on the team coach at Old Trafford!), but I just can't understand how anyone could pick either over Kasper.

 

In terms of ability or achievements, even when disregarding playing for us... there is only one winner.
