Iwan is a Welshman Posted 17 March 2014 Posted 17 March 2014 This side is better than O'Neill's was in May '96. But to be better than O'Neill's side of May '97 would be a heck of a step up.
sorrelite Posted 17 March 2014 Posted 17 March 2014 Yes, this is the best. No doubt. The 70-71 side was solid but nothing special. Worthington, Weller etc were signed by Bloomfield at the start of the next season. The Wallace team was young and exuberant but couldn't cope at a higher level. MON's team was work in progress that went on to play to its strengths and was incredibly successful all told. This lot are going to win the league comfortably and playing the best second tier football any Leicester City team have done in the fifty plus years I have been watching. Whether they go on to establish themselves in the Premier is another matter but definitely the best to come up.
