Attack is weighted 55%, defence 45% — exactly how iKnoBall scores an XI. Think you'd start a different 11? Prove it.

The Case for This XI

Gordon Banks headlines the group at a 97 overall — the kind of number only genuine all-time greats reach on iKnoBall's scale. Around Banks, the model fills out a complete XI that balances a goalkeeper, a back four, a midfield engine, and a front line across Leicester City history, then simulates all 38 matches. The result — 2513 — reflects both the raw talent and how the pieces fit at both ends of the pitch.

Frequently Asked

Who is in the all-time Leicester City XI?

By iKnoBall's era-adjusted ratings the all-time Leicester City XI is Gordon Banks (GK, 1960s), Harry Maguire (DEF, 2010s), Christian Fuchs (DEF, 2010s), Robert Huth (DEF, 2010s), Wes Morgan (DEF, 2010s), N'Golo Kante (MID, 2010s), Riyad Mahrez (MID, 2010s), Youri Tielemans (MID, 2020s), Gary Lineker (FWD, 1980s), Jamie Vardy (FWD, 2010s), Frank Worthington (FWD, 1970s). Together they project to a 25–13 Premier League season.

What record would the all-time Leicester City XI have?

iKnoBall's simulation projects this 11-player XI at 25–13 over a 38-game season, with an average starter rating of 89. The model runs each match as a probability from the XI's combined attacking and defensive strength, so an all-time XI contends for a near-perfect campaign but nothing is guaranteed.

How are the ratings calculated?

Each player's overall is era-adjusted so a 1960s icon and a modern superstar sit on the same 70–99 scale. Attack (midfield and forwards) is weighted 55% and defence (goalkeeper and back line) 45%, and only true all-time greats reach the mid-to-high 90s.

Can I build my own Leicester City all-time XI?

Yes — iKnoBall is a free game where you draft one legend per era, build your all-time XI, and simulate a full season chasing a perfect 38–0. Play it free at play.iknoball.com.
