Lambert09 Posted 29 July 2013 Share Posted 29 July 2013 Sky sports have ranked the 125 most promising players to watch this season. Kasper has been placed at #10 and Knocky at #24 (His shirt number makes sense now) Only looked down to #30... im surprised Wes wasnt in the list. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11689/8841517/fl-125-championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfgang amadeus Posted 1 August 2013 Share Posted 1 August 2013 So haven't seen this mentioned but Sky Sports have put together a list of the 'best' 65 players in the league, I think most of it looks relatively reasonable but some of the highly rated players coming down are likely to flop (looking at you SWP). The List 1. Wigan Athletic - James McCarthy 2. Queens Park Rangers - Adel Taarabt 3. Queens Park Rangers - Loic Remy 4. Blackpool - Tom Ince 5. Blackburn Rovers - Jordan Rhodes 6. Queens Park Rangers - Esteban Granero 7. Wigan Athletic - Shaun Maloney 8. Derby County - Will Hughes 9. Queens Park Rangers - Park Ji-Sung 10. Leicester City - Kasper Schmeichel 11. Bolton Wanderers - Chris Eagles 12. Reading - Jimmy Kebe 13. Wigan Athletic - Callum McManaman 14. Leeds United - Sam Byram 15. Queens Park Rangers - Shaun Wright-Phillips 16. Reading - Royston Drenthe 17. Watford - Troy Deeney 18. Reading - Jobi McAnuff 19. Burnley - Charlie Austin 20. Queens Park Rangers - Junior Hoilett 21. Reading - Adam Le Fondre 22. Wigan Athletic - Grant Holt 23. Wigan Athletic - Jordi Gomez 24. Leicester City - Anthony Knockaert 25. Watford - Almen Abdi 26. Nottingham Forest - Adlene Guedioura 27. Bolton Wanderers - Mark Davies 28. Brighton & Hove Albion - Liam Bridcutt 29. Middlesbrough - Mustapha Carayol 30. Birmingham City - Chris Burke 31. Blackpool - Matt Phillips 32. Leicester City - Wes Morgan 33. Nottingham Forest - Andy Reid 34. Leeds United - Ross McCormack 35. Blackburn Rovers - Scott Dann 36. Watford- Joel Ekstrand 37. Sheffield Wednesday - Michail Antonio 38. AFC Bournemouth - Matt Ritchie 39. Leicester City - Chris Wood 40. Middlesbrough - Jason Steele 41. Charlton Athletic - Chris Solly 42. Bolton Wanderers - Jermaine Beckford 43. Leeds United - Luke Murphy 44. Yeovil Town - Paddy Madden 45. Doncaster Rovers - David Cotterill 46. Burnley - Kieran Trippier 47. Huddersfield Town - James Vaughan 48. Millwall - James Henry 49. Ipswich Town - Aaron Cresswell 50. Reading - Wayne Bridge 51. Nottingham Forest - Chris Cohen 52. Brighton & Hove Albion - Tomasz Kuszczak 53. Wigan Athletic - Chris McCann 54. Leicester City - David Nugent 55. Charlton Athletic - Johnnie Jackson 56. Ipswich Town - Tommy Smith 57. Sheffield Wednesday - Lewis Buxton 58. Huddersfield Town - Jack Hunt 59. Blackburn Rovers - Adam Henley 60. Bolton Wanderers - Marvin Sordell 61. Sheffield Wednesday - Chris Kirkland 62. Wigan Athletic - Scott Carson 63. Bournemouth - Brett Pitman 64. Doncaster Rovers - Harry Forrester 65. Barnsley - Reuben Noble-Lazarus 54. Leicester City - David Nugent There aren't too many players who boast 100 per cent scoring records at international level, but Nugent is one of them. Admittedly, he has only made the one appearance for England, but no-one can take that solitary cap or a debut goal away from him. Few eyebrows were raised when Nugent was drafted into the Three Lions fold back in 2007 and he was involved in a big-money move to Portsmouth shortly after making his bow. He has struggled to get goals at a Premier League level, but remains a prolific marksman in the Championship. The 28-year-old has plundered 16 goals in each of his two seasons at Leicester and will be looking for more of the same this term. 39. Leicester City - Chris Wood Given his size and strength, it comes as something of a surprise that Wood is still just 21 years of age. After failing to establish a first team place at West Brom following a move from his native New Zealand, Wood finally found impressive goalscoring form during a four-month loan spell at Millwall during last season. When the January transfer window came Wood favoured a permanent move to Leicester over remaining at the Den, but the goal record continued. Leicester fans will be hoping that Wood's form instigates an automatic promotion bid this season. 32. Leicester City - Wes Morgan Widely regarded as one of the most complete centre-halves outside of the Premier League, Leicester netted themselves quite the bargain when they lured Morgan away from home-town club Nottingham Forest in January 2012. A hulking defender who is strong in the air and in the tackle, it has come as no surprise to learn that Forest are keen to take the 29-year-old back to the City Ground now that there financial struggles are over. Leicester, though, have handed Morgan their captain's armband and will demand a sizeable fee for his services as they endeavour to put a contract extension in place. 24. Leicester City - Anthony Knockaert A virtual unknown when Leicester dipped into the French second tier to secure his signature last summer, 12 months on and Knockaert is now considered to be of Premier League class. The Foxes hope he will guide them back to the Promised Land, with goalscoring midfielders worth their weight in gold when plotting a promotion surge. Knockaert weighed in with nine in all competitions last season - including the most dramatic of strikes on the final day of the regular season which carried Leicester into the play-offs through the back door. 10. Leicester City - Kasper Schmeichel Failure to make the most of their play-off appearance last term was always likely to leave Leicester vulnerable when the transfer window re-opened. They have, however, been able to bat away any unwanted interest in their top talents. Hull City made it pretty clear that they were keen to take Schmeichel with them to the Premier League, but the Danish goalkeeper remains part of the set-up at the King Power Stadium. He has some way to go to emulate the achievements of his father - Manchester United legend Peter - but at 26 years of age time is still on his side and he has all the attributes required to become a great - with his reflexes among the sharpest in the business.

Guest MattP Posted 1 August 2013 Share Posted 1 August 2013 Kasper isn't our best player and if there are 12 players in this division in this league better than Callum McManaman I'm a Dutchman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tielemans63 Posted 1 August 2013 Share Posted 1 August 2013 On a serious note, I reckon Kingy and James are better than a number of those players on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 1 August 2013 Share Posted 1 August 2013 He's the highest place defender in that list other than Byram of Leeds whose ridiculously hyped up and plays everywhere. Defenders often get over-looked. Morgan was and is a beast at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brooksy Posted 1 August 2013 Share Posted 1 August 2013 I fail to believe there are 23 players in this league better than Knockaert. If he had scored that penalty he'd be top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peach0000 Posted 1 August 2013 Share Posted 1 August 2013 If he had scored that penalty he'd be top 10. No he wouldn't because he wouldn't be a championship player, he would have scored 7 against palace and we would have won 7-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooksy Posted 1 August 2013 Share Posted 1 August 2013 No he wouldn't because he wouldn't be a championship player, he would have scored 7 against palace and we would have won 7-1 And Peter Beagrie would still say Wellens is our most important player.

Dan LCFC Posted 1 August 2013 Share Posted 1 August 2013 If he had scored that penalty he'd be top 10. Which speaks volumes. One missed penalty shouldn't put him far down. I'd personally slap him straight into the top five. People aren't seriously telling me there are that many players with more ability in this league than he has? The bloke's class.
