Lawrie Madden

Robbie Neilsen - to me just plain poo

Andy Johnson

Junior Lewis

Josh Low

Ricky Hill

Elvis Hammond

Phil Gee (him plus sticks + 800k for Kitson = worse deal ever)

Not bad, but you have had a shocker with Tony James, good defender whose career was ruined by injury.

I too have had a shocker posting twice above, now this makes 3! Damn you technology!

May as well add scary Carey and Nicky Mohan to the list while I am here. Norman Leet anyone? I remember asking him for his autograph when I was about 11, he refused :rolleyes:

Kept hold of the number one jersey?!

What are you on about, thirty odd games for Milan over five years hardly indicates he was the first name on the team sheet, it's pretty much always been Dida or Abiatti (when he's not been out on loan) ahead of him.

Disagree with that. There are a good few strikers since Gunnlaugsson who have contributed much less.

For me Tony Spearing and Rob Johnson were shocking footballers. Kalac, Fatty Pressman And Martin Hodge were all piss poor keepers. Nicky Mohan deserves a shout too for crapness.

Frank Sinclair was a great player for us. I suspect the chap who put him down never actually saw him play. Was a beast of a man when in his pomp. Don't let the og's paint a different picture.

Rob Johnson deserves more than one mention on this thread.

He was so bad that Tony Spearing and Alan Paris kept him out of the team for much of his 2 years at LCFC - and somehow he'd played in Luton's League Cup Winning team v Arsenal just 12 months before he joined us.

For what it's worth, my XI (at the point in their career when they played for us) since'84 reads

Martin Hodge

Rob Johnson

Allan Evans

Laurie Madden

Tony Spearing

Josh Low

Junior Lewis

Jason Jarrett

Joe Hamill

Nathan Blake

Elvis Hammond

How can any of you forget Nickos Dabizas he was the worst defender ive ever laid eyes on.

John Curtis

Gillesbie

Junior Lewis

Seph Oakes

Tricky Trev

Lee Marshall

Scott Gemmil

Robbie Savage (Makes me seething angry when people say "I remember the days when Robbie Savage ruled your midfield")

Alan Rodgers

Alan Sheehan

and many more

People actually say this?!

Two people I can't believe have been mentioned are Phil Gee and Barry Hayles. Ridiculous.

Even Akinbuyi is a bit of a harsh one. He did try and lets not forget he was playing in the Premiership, we have had worse players who played at a lower level and didn't cost £5 million so they don't stand out as much.

I hated the era between 2005-08, so many crap players who just didn't want to play for us.

I have to say even though he is not our worst player ever, I hate Yann Kermorgant more than any other Leicester player, for obvious reasons.

Are you for real?

how can you put Savage in this list of players?

This has actually made me mad!

Posted

Got to be Tricky Trevor (Benjiman) for me.

Oooooooooh or Denis Wise, sometimes i forget how much i hate him. Yes, in fact definitely Wise.

I don't understand why people are saying the likes of Sergio Hellings, and Kaebi are shit, you never saw them play, no one saw them play, so you don't know. Nor do I understand the people saying that some of our youth products were shit, young kids getting their first chance at pro football, some sink some swim, that's life, better to give them that chance than not, you may find an Andy King. Likewise the loanees that never made it Glombard and the hungarians, hard to call them shit when they hardly played for us.

In my opinion the truly shit players are the ones that played week in week out despite the fact that there were better options, and were consistently shit, Junior Lewis is the obvious contender, he played 25 games for us, almost all in the prem, when he was in the prime of his career. Utter Gash

Barry Hayles is another, 28 games 2 goals, Carl Cort has a similar record, they make Akinbiyi and Big Trev look prolific.

The last 10 years have made the mediocrity of the likes of Mohan, Carey, Gee, Bobby Davison, Philpott, Mark Blake, look positively world class.

A final note on Kalac, what makes the highlight reel of his Leicester City career so impressive is that he only had 136 minutes of football for us, and I'm sure they missed out a couple of his mistakes from the WBA game.

how can Ryan McGivern be the worst

How can he NOT be one off the worst, only player when he gets the ball you shit yourself wondering what mistake he's gonna do next,  he was awful

Posted

The worst player I have seen has got to be Josh Low. He was tall yet he couldn't head a ball. I think we sold him to Peterborough for £100,000. They actually paid for his services lol

As for Ryan McGivern, I don't think he was a full back. He switched to centre half against Sheffield United at home, I'm sure it was, and looked very comfortable in that position. He's played a few times for Manchester City this year as well.
