Leicester continued their brilliant start to the season on Wednesday night with a 3-0 victory over Preston North End.
A brace from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and a goal from Kelechi Iheanacho gave Leicester their ninth win from their opening ten games in the Championship, as they now sit top of the Championship table.
One man who was full of praise for the Foxes was the manager in the opposition box on Wednesday evening, Ryan Lowe.
Ryan Lowe on ‘different class’ Leicester
Whilst he thinks the scoreline on his side was ‘harsh’, he was full of praise for Leicester, who he claims are ‘different class’, and thinks Dewsbury-Hall should be playing at a higher level.
“It was definitely harsh,” Lowe told the Leicester Mercury. “I thought we were fantastic for 50-odd minutes until they scored the first goal, which was disappointing on our behalf – we go to ground when we could probably have intercepted it. But Leicester have some quality, they are different class, and we nullified that early on – we caught them out a little bit.
“We didn’t have much possession but I can’t fault the effort. Late on we were out on our feet a little bit, which was expected. We had the best chance first half – Duane’s had a fantastic opportunity and it’s gone just beyond the post – but they are a Premier League team in the Championship.
Lowe added, “they have got a player in Dewsbury-Hall who shouldn’t be playing at this level. But we didn’t fear them. We respected them. They are normal human beings but they have got different qualities to most in the Championship.”
