Are you people serious, this starts and ends with Muzzy Izzet.

The original post said "who you wish had stayed longer".

Muzzy thankfully did.

Kevin Campbell.

Like someone said was only here for 2 months and won player of the season lol

Without a doubt ( for me ) it has to be Kevin Campbell. Mainly because at the time our team was so so bad that he stuck out like a sore thumb with the clear difference in quality he had over everyone else. We got him on loan from Arsenal with the instructions that he was not for sale at all and we should not make a bid for him.

I remember his last home game and he got a standing ovation and was the last off the pitch, as he was clapping the crowed, ect. Very emotional to see him go.

We of course then got in trouble with Arsenal as they thought we had unsettled him - we tabled a £400,000 bid.

I then remember an interview he gave about a year or two after where he said he really enjoyed his time at Leicester and he still had a Leicester Scarf on his bedroom wall. Brought a tear to my eye it did.

To the youngsters on here it would obviously be some of Sven's recruits last season such as Yakubu and Kyle Naughton. Older ones will cite the likes of Gerry Daley but for my 35-45 something generation then it's still got to be Muzzy Izzet from Chelsea (before we signed him up proper once we were in the Prem.!)

Kyle Naughton, Mark Davies and Tom Cleverly

Just with those 3 players alone in our team right now and we'd be so much better off than we are.

Fave overall is and always will be Muzzy, but of course we signed him so I can't really say I wished he'd stayed for a bit longer, deserved better than us at the time he left. Absolute legend

Got to be Kyle Naughton for me. Storming up and down the wing. Never stopped running. Good crosser. Great finish. Cutting in. Firing in from distance. Awesome player. Future england RB

Loved Kevin Campbell at the time, Davies, Naughton and Cleverley would get a mention but clearly Muzzy, afterall that header against Watford was priceless!!!

Gerry Daley

Got to agree with you Mikey. He loan signing was probably the single most important factor in us getting promotion in 1983. Can never understand why we never signed him permanently that summer. Only thing to add ...... is his name is spelt Gerry Daly !

Martyn Waghorn was brilliant as a player and morale-boosting for the fans during that 09-10 season!

Tom Cleverley probably for skill though. He was superb!
