With a World Cup approaching he knows where he can best showcase his talents and secure his seat on the plane! I still get a little excited shiver when I read this and realise it's reality.

st albans fox Posted 26 January 2018 Share Posted 26 January 2018 Let’s be honest - drinkys current bench warming experience isn’t doing us any harm in trying to hang onto players. I think we do have to put our hands in our pockets again though. Assume the transfer talk is agents getting better deals to go back to rudders with 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a great point, players that might be tempted to move to a 'big' club will see that and hopefully be put off. DD made a big mistake and hopefully not many more will do the same.

He wasn’t in pole posiiton for an england squad place (unlike vards). Riyad just likes playing every week so this should help there. Suspect his missus is rather keen on the extra dosh though !

That's Vardy, he gives honest and direct responses without being very emotive or sincere. Surely if he was direct he couldn’t be perceived as being vague....

Well, in terms of playing prospects it's been a horrendous move. He backed himself to forge the partnership with Kante again and he's not done it. Barkley coming in has pushed him further down. He'll most probably end up going out on loan somewhere, he'll never again have anything like what he had when he was here and his chance of going to the World Cup are slim to none.

thybluefox Posted 26 January 2018 Share Posted 26 January 2018 Well, the decision is first choice here and hopefully Europa, or playing on a Sunday at Bournemouth because your teammates have just played a Champions League game.

Stinkenzo Posted 26 January 2018 Share Posted 26 January 2018 Virtually every player has confidence within themselves to be able to play (and obviously start regularly) at a higher level. Drinkwater going to Chelsea is no different. People who mock him for choosing to join Chelsea are just needlessly bitter. What more was he actually going to achieve here? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people want to better themselves, so be it. In any walk of life. Vardy is a Leicester City legend but if he turned around and said "right I want to try and win more before I retire" then, after all he's done for us, I'd be gutted but accept it. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no, because she'd still be yours in either job scenario. If Vardy goes to another club he can't play for us anymore. Hence it's far more like the 'richer bloke' simile. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajthefox Posted 26 January 2018 Share Posted 26 January 2018 (edited) People can read into it what they like but it means fook all. How many boards have given managers ultimate backing and sacked them two weeks later? It's a different situation yes but the point is football is full of mercenaries and business men and what they are quoted as saying is very rarely worth anything. Vardy isn't necessarily one of them but he could say I'm staying now but every man has his price. Edited 26 January 2018 by ajthefox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been on the cards for weeks - as soon as rumours we are prepared to pay riyad a chunk more to stay this was bound to happen. Would be worried if it didn’t tbh as more likely he would be looking to leave if he wasn’t kicking off for more wonga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
