Vardy watch

Fantastic!!!
And thats after his gaff on Lake Garda was burgled and £80,000 worth of stuff nicked while he was playing their last game!
 
According to Capology he is on 35,000 euros plus bonus a week at Cremonese.
It must be around 12-18 months ago when I suggested we offer JV9 about £40K per week plus some high performance bonus's such as getting so many goals, getting promoted, good run in the Cups etc etc
Whether he would have stayed I don't know, I expect he could see the way the side was shaping up and decided it was time to move on.
 
I don't think there's any point in regretting him leaving.
He owed us nothing, he'd achieved everything beyond our wildest dreams and there were also groans about him not being able to cut it anymore.
He went at exactly the right time and who could blame him for having probably one last adventure to round off one of footballs great stories.
He didn't get to the top table till very late, but my god he sure did make the most of every moment once he'd reached his peak.
Personally I hope he never comes back in any managerial role because it doesn't very often work out and the fans should always remember him for what he achieved with Leicester City on the pitch.
 
Two typical Vardy goals. We’ve seen both of these many times. The first one on one and coolly slots it past the keeper. The second is pure instinct. Watch him just as the guy crosses it. He behind the defender but he’s anticipated the cross and gets in front and nicks the goal. A few weeks short of his 39th birthday. I’m glad he’s gone and not having to put up with the crap we’re witnessing. He’s too good for that.

 
Was talking to an old FA coach on Sunday he was talking about strikers mainly centre forwards.
He said he had always maintained that the very good ones you could never ever coach.
Its all about brawn brain and feet, its inbred its instinctive just knowing when to move where to move in seconds that makes them stand out
 
The man is a natural goal scorer
Compare this to the lightweights we have masquerading as strikers
Two goals between them in forty plus games , one a penalty
Glad to see Jamie doing well but he is a huge part why this current team is so crap
 
How have we ended up with Daka up front on twice the money that Vardy is currently earning, and he has still scored more goals in 8 games this season than all of ours added together
 
As I recall they mistakenly let Mahrez take quite a few and also a bit earlier Nuge was the main man
 
He also, imho, bottled taking the penalty against Everton at home in23/24, leaving it to Maddison. Had he taken it, and scored we would have stayed up. Still baffled by that decision to this day.
 
He's had a mixed record with penalties.
He didn't take for England in that euros world cup shootout. Also didn't take for Leicester in a shootout either.

Sorry, not sure about any others, but he did (and scored) at Hull in the League Cup. But, yes, he missed a few spot kicks in his time. Not that I care one way or the other whether he takes them for Cremonese or not and find it bizarre that anybody who wasn't a Cremonese fan or someone who had some money on Vardy as first goalscorer in their games would.
