Peter Shilton backs Leicester to maintain amazing form

Former England goalkeeper Peter Shilton believes Premier League champions Leicester can sustain their success, just like the Nottingham Forest side he played in.

Shilton began his career at home town club Leicester in the 1960s, but it was at Forest from 1977 to 1982 where he won silverware as Brian Clough led the club to the old First Division title, two European Cups and two League Cups.

Leicester's title triumph has provided the greatest shock in domestic football since Forest came out of the old second division in 1977 to become English champions at the first time of asking - and Shilton feels the Foxes are also capable of being more than a one-season wonder.

Shilton, England's most capped international, told BBC Radio Five Live's Sportsweek programme:

They've handled the pressure and proved they're the best team in the country. People say they can't sustain it - but why can't they?

At Forest we won the League Cup the year we won the league and we went on to win two European Cups, another League Cup and a Super Cup.

That's the next step for Leicester now. Can they prove they're a great team over a number of years? There's no reason why they can't in my eyes, they just need to strengthen the squad.
