Player ratings25 Oct 2027

Both of them Emil Riis's — 8.45

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.45, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

The dugout25 Oct 2027

Silko Thomas keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Leicester City may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad25 Oct 2027

Tino Livramento in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Leicester City this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match23 Oct 2027

Leicester City find a way past West Bromwich Albion

West Bromwich Albion made Leicester City work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

The terraces25 Oct 2027

The crowd has taken to Harry Howell

At 19 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

The dugout25 Oct 2027

The manager makes an example of Woyo Coulibaly

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout25 Oct 2027

A satisfied Matthew Hawkins

“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 2‑1, Matthew Hawkins could afford to be generous.

The dugout25 Oct 2027

Somebody else is better right now than Ricardo Pereira

The team sheet says it in public every week until it changes. The only version of being dropped a footballer cannot argue with, and the one he takes hardest.

Player ratings25 Oct 2027

Wes Burns beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 12. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Match19 Dec 2026

5 matches without a win for Leicester City

The run now stands at 5, and the questions being asked around Leicester City are no longer polite ones.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Veljko Milosavljević in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Leicester City this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match19 Dec 2026

The goals have deserted Leicester City

4 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Leicester City can tell you which week it ends in.

Squad21 Dec 2026

The step up is real for Harry Howell

At 18 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

The terraces21 Dec 2026

Leicester City supporters have found a favourite in Luca Netz

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Luca Netz has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings21 Dec 2026

Luca Netz stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.31 on the card, and the Leicester City support went home talking about one name.

The dugout21 Dec 2026

Emil Riis knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Leicester City, and both men came out saying it was fine.

The dugout21 Dec 2026

The view from the dugout

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Joseph Ellis chose the glass-half-full version of 0‑0; the supporters left with the other one.

The dugout21 Dec 2026

Hamza Choudhury gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match3 Nov 2026

Leicester City march on in the cup

Luton Town are out and Leicester City go through, 2‑1 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

Harry Howell, 18, plays like he has been here for years — 7.96

A mark of 7.96 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 18-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

Harry Winks goes up and wins it — 7.87

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.87 for the rest of it.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

Nobody could get near Wes Burns

Successful dribbles: 23. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad9 Nov 2026

A falling-out at Leicester City

Conor Chaplin and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The terraces9 Nov 2026

One of their own: Luca Netz

He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

Emil Riis gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match7 Nov 2026

Leicester City make home a hard place to visit

8 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.

Match7 Nov 2026

Emil Riis the difference as Leicester City beat Oxford United

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Emil Riis. 1‑0 against Oxford United, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

5 matches without a win for Leicester City

The run now stands at 5, and the questions being asked around Leicester City are no longer polite ones.

Player ratings28 Sep 2026

Up for the corner, and Jamaal Lascelles delivers — 7.82

Centre-halves are allowed forward twice a season and are judged on what they do when they get there. Jamaal Lascelles scored, was marked 7.82, and got back before anybody noticed he had gone.

Market28 Sep 2026

Jackson Muleka has his eye on Europe

It is not a grievance and it is not a demand: he wants to play continental football, and he has stopped hiding it. Whether Leicester City can give him that is a question about the club, not about him.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Leicester City

Conor Chaplin was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Real improvement from Harry Howell at Leicester City

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Harry Howell is 18, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

The dugout28 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Brandon Austin

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Brandon Austin, and the manager let it.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Luke Thomas reaches 100 appearances

100 games in the shirt. Nobody sets out to build a record like that; it happens to a certain kind of player at a certain kind of club, and this town knows what it has.

Match26 Sep 2026

Two points walk out of the ground

Level with 89 minutes on the clock, after an afternoon Leicester City had all but put away. Blackburn Rovers will call it a point earned; the home dressing room will call it two given away, and both of them are right.

Match22 Sep 2026

Charlton Athletic snatch it back from Leicester City

A goal on 91 minutes turned three points into one and a good afternoon into an argument about game management that will run until Saturday.
