alanf0x Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Interesting to see that Vardy left the ground 45 minutes after the player coach left for London with the rest of the squad with Nigel and john Rudkin. Maybe a new contract may soon be offered
dbtcity Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 If the ESPN article is to be believed then Okazaki is pretty similar. No way we'd get offered £15m for Jamie though as good as he is.The player himself has said he is not the most talented, the fastest on the ground or the greatest in the air.... I'd say the main thing that differs vardy from the rest is his lighting pace which going by that snippet from the espn article the player himself says he hasn't got, would still take okazaki but not as a replacement for vardy!!! I honestly think he is irreplaceable
Finnaldo Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Vardy's special weapon for me is that his career up to 25yo was forged in Non-League, he was being paid something like £20-50 a week at Stocksbridge- he carried on playing because of his desire and passion for football and it helped him along whilst he worked full time. When he came here he lacked an edge of physicality, but when he was ready to quit after a disappointing season it was Pearson who instilled that belief and desire back to his game, and for the most part since he's been a world-beater. What I'm trying to say is whether Vardy believes that there's a better move whilst Pearson is manager here who has really showed him how far that desire can get him- if that England call-up does anything I think it will consolidate his stay here.
Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Vardy is irreplaceable. Wouldn't sell for 150m. This. Although his quality would probably realistically be worth £10-£15m, the effort, pace and how he adds to our game is absolutely vital. I'm guessing all but the most ridiculous of bids would be met with a firm "Not for sale" from Pearson and the owners I also would like to think that Vardy would have no interest in playing for Villa. We're on the up and he's been a huge part of it
ealingfox Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 We finished above Villa and are equal to if not bigger than West Brom. Stoke we might struggle with but at least we could hold them to ransom if they really wanted him. Still you feel the message from us, as it has been previously, will be not for sale at any price.
kingcarr21 Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/579950/Leicester-Aston-Villa-Jamie-Vardy-Transfer-News-Gossip Apparantely been offered a lucrative 3 year deal. Sign up Vardy and lets all go for a massive party
sylofox Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Who would you get to replace him for 15m though.... vital part of the way we're playing at the min Not really we are not playing now lol
dbtcity Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Remember when the majority of us were saying to snap wba hands off for 5m in Jan!!!! Thank god Pearson is the manager and not us Not really we are not playing now lolYou get what I mean
Carl the Llama Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Remember when the majority of us were saying to snap wba hands off for 5m in Jan!!!! Thank god Pearson is the manager and not us You get what I mean
dbtcity Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 5m for an out of form player who wasn't really getting a game, if you thought differently hats off to you
BoyJones Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Would be a major shock if Vardy turned his back on Pearson, City and the fans after all the support he has had. Understandable to degree if it's a top four outfit who have more chance of winning trophies, but what's the point of joining anybody else. Vardy's got stability, an exciting four years ahead of him before he starts to lose his pace and tenacity; as long as we stay in the prem, he will be well looked after and can become a city legend.
Foxymcoxy Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 5m for an out of form player who wasn't really getting a game, if you thought differently hats off to you I thought the same as now. Would be crazy to sell a player we have already seen so much from. If someone has been well and truly replaced and isn't making the squad then getting a good price for him is obviously sensible. Selling an established member of the squad because you reckon it's a fair price and we could maybe get better with that money is a dangerous game.
Robin JD Popley Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 The only top flight club I think that would turn Jamie's head atm is Arsenal and I tell you why - I think he could be a great foil for Giroud and/or a new striker (sure Alan Smith would probably agree). Yes, they aren't challenging for the title at present but he would best fit their system in my view. However, it is all hypothetical - He'll stay, no doubts about it at all. He likes it here and we all love him.
MrSpaM Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Not sure why he would sign for a club at a similar level to ourselves unless we were forcing the move
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Its a shame Southampton will probably get Austin, I'd break the bank to get him This.
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Vardy's best years are still to come, so I wouldn't want to see him go now. A few months I would have given him away. I was way wrong with that one.
eye666 Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Not sure why he would sign for a club lower down the league to ourselves unless we were forcing the move Edited for you.
The Guvnor Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 The Villa, now why would he want to go there ffs, how underwhelming would that be!!
lestalee Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Not sure why he would sign for a club at a similar level to ourselves unless we were forcing the move
lestalee Posted 26 May 2015 Posted 26 May 2015 Totally agree cant see him goin to a midtable side no point in movin!!
ARM1968 Posted 27 May 2015 Posted 27 May 2015 Don't think we need to worry. Vardy is a loyal guy. Think he will be with us next season at least.
shailen Posted 27 May 2015 Posted 27 May 2015 15m is a lot for Vardy, but he's irreplaceable at the moment, so I would refuse it. There's very few players like him around.
nnfox Posted 27 May 2015 Posted 27 May 2015 If a top 7 or 8 team came in for him I would think his head could be turned but Villa? A step down I think. He has made it to the fringes of the England squad here, realistically a club playing European football would be the progression for him now. Unless he can double his wages... I would hope that he won't sell his soul for the sake of it. He doesn't seem like that type of player.
Kitchandro Posted 27 May 2015 Posted 27 May 2015 No need even talk about it. Villa won't spend £15m, Vardy won't be interested and we're not interested in selling. I can't see him being sold to anyone.
dylanlegend Posted 28 May 2015 Posted 28 May 2015 Tbf I think it depends on Vardy. As people said he doesn't seem like a player that will push through a transfer but if he thinks he can earn £60,000 a week elsewhere that is enough to make anyone think seriously. Especially with him being 28 this could be his last big contract
