    Your views banner

    We asked you to pick your player of the season after our Leicester fan contributor narrowed it down to Jamie Vardy, Mads Hermansen, Bilal El Khannouss and Wilfred Ndidi.

    Here are some of your comments on your selection, as well as some other names thrown into the ring:

    Jason: Bilal has been the standout this season, and I'm sure he will go on to bigger things. The club need to get the proper money for him.

    Vin: Vardy because he never gave less than 100%.

    Malcolm: Luke Thomas - he has been Leicester's best player in every game since he returned to the side!

    Will: If he were on the list, I'd have picked Nick de Marco as our player of the season. How he got us out of PSR charges earlier in the season is anyone's guess, even though we failed to capitalise on it.

    Mark: It's like picking the least worst player of the season.

  3. 'You can see the talent they have is second to none' - McAteerpublished at 12:03 24 May

    Leicester City academy graduate Kasey McAteer says he can be "really proud" after scoring his first Premier League goal against Ipswich Town and praised young academy products Jeremy Monga and Jake Evans for their contribution in the final part of this season.

    "I'm buzzing," McAteer told BBC Radio Leicester after scoring last weekend.

    "I was happy to play my part in such a special day that was all about [Jamie] Vards and helping the team get the win is the most important thing.

    "All that was going through my head was to shoot. I saw the far post was cut off so I thought I need to go near post and just put my foot through the ball. I'm happy that it flew in.

    "I think I can be really proud of myself for getting my first Premier League goal."

    He also praised boss Ruud van Nistelrooy for looking at the academy's youth prospects ahead of their Championship campaign next season.

    McAteer added: "This is what this club is all about.

    "We have had so many good academy products over the years, [Harvey] Barnes, [Ben] Chilwell and Kiernan [Dewsbury-Hall], so if the club can keep striving in that direction then it is good for us.

    "Also getting exposed to the first team, like I did myself, is great.

    "The young boys Jeremy [Monga] and Jake [Evans], along with all of us, can be proud to play for our first team. Normally I get referred to as the 'young boy' but I always have to think about the fact they are 15 and 16 years old.

    "It is crazy but when they have come in and trained with us, they have been really good. They have pushed us and we have pushed them. They are just going to keep getting better and better. You can see the talent they have is second to none."

    Bournemouth are unbeaten in all six of their Premier League home games against Leicester, winning the past three by an aggregate score of 10-4.

    Leicester have opened the scoring in each of their past three Premier League games, as many as they had in their previous 27. The most recent time they did this in four straight games was in October 2022, with the fourth game in that run coming against Bournemouth.
