The Numbers Game – 2014/15 Review – Leicester

Having won just four of their first 29 fixtures upon returning to the Premier League, Leicester looked prime candidates for relegation less than 12 months after clinching the Championship. A sensational about-turn in form saw the Foxes drop just four points in the remaining nine matches – with only champions Chelsea getting the better of Nigel Pearson’s side – as a late rally saw them finish the season six points clear of the drop zone.

In our latest article for members, we assess Leicester’s roster, assessing their output in terms of goal threat and creativity.

    I can only laugh for those who say "william carvalho didnt have a great season" when they havnt watched a single game of Sporting.. In fact William is nowadays top 3 DM of the world just behind Matic and Busquets

      he had a better one last season in my opinion.. never said he's bad

      Carvalho is very good. Wouldn't put him in the world's top 3 DM's. He has the potential to be there though.

      "In fact William is nowadays top 3 DM of the world just behind Matic and Busquets"

      In your opinion, you mean?

        No its a fact... You cant name a better one

        1. Polaris - The Mortal Coil
          • 10 Years
          9 years, 1 day ago

          Javier Mascherano

            A guy who plays 90% of the games at CB doesnt count. Besides he is no better than William

              • 10 Years
              9 years, 1 day ago

              Of course he counts - His best position is DM.

              Second sentence made me laugh. 😀

                Well yeah i agree with you.. I also think that Gareth Bale is the best full back of the world.

                1. Polaris - The Mortal Coil
                  • 10 Years
                  9 years, 1 day ago

                  Well Gareth Bale's best position isn't full-back is it? 😆

                  There's a slight difference there, Dfroes...

                    9 years, 1 day ago

                    And nowadays neither DM is the best position for Mascherano.. You cant say that he is better than William when he doesnt play there. Its illogical

                    1. Polaris - The Mortal Coil
                      • 10 Years
                      9 years, 1 day ago

                      I definitely can say that, as would most people I'd imagine.

                      Did you not watch the WC mate? Mascherano played DM and absolutely bossed it. Easily one of the best in the world, even if he doesn't play there much.

    Bernardo Silva (Portugal) is awarded a yellow card for his tackle. He doesn't seem to agree with the decision, but Danny Makkelie won't hear any protests.

    56' Raphael Guerreiro (Portugal) finds himself in a great opportunity! He unleashed a shot from the edge of the box, which whizzed just wide of the right post!

    1. Jafooli
      • 12 Years
