Or have you read the title of a thread on a forumn and then decided that our manager should be sacked? I dont have any problems with my maths btw, I think you lot are added 2+2 and coming out with 5. No, in bold and capitals if it helps, but this is a forum to discuss. The whole transfer thread is based upon speculation and opinion, and gets closed as soon as it is done. The point here is that it is believable baswd upon leaka to john Percy when vardy was "rested" makes it "very likely" that all is not rosy. Then when it was leaked, he didnt even make the bench. Nobody is claiming it is true, but are discussing the possibility. Elementary my dear dimwit, although to me it reads more like stating the bleeding obvious.
Beechey Posted 20 December 2018 Posted 20 December 2018 Does this guy know he's just signed a massive four year contract extension worth over £30m? Christ. And to think people believe this nonsense.

I guess it just depends how you look at it. When I see that Vardy is rested, I take into consideration the fact that he has had ongoing problems with his groin this season. I don’t understand why some of the people on here get so worked up by rumours and let themselves get into a little mardy about something that has no factual backing. And I’m not against discussing the possibility that he may leave, talk about how we can replace him. What other options there are if he was to leave. Don’t use a rumour as another reason to call for puels job.

Me likewise Foxboy, I also naturally assumed that his situation is being carefully managed as it is a reoccurrence of a previous injury. Had we got some viable alternative striker he'd have probably even had an operation by now but we haven't. You've made some valid points despite the sniping rudeness you've received, just ignore it mate.

Don’t use a rumour as another reason to call for puels job. Time to copy and paste my last post from the "time for puel to go?" thread, which could easily have been typed in direct response to this. ' I agree with everything you are saying but am seriously wavering because we put a ****ing reserve tesm out in a quarter final against man city's reserves. Granted, they didnt do too bad and penalties are a lottery at the best of times but we seriously proritised largely meaningless games either side over a chance to win something and qualify for europe early, thereby rendering the 7th place, best case scenario, ****ing meaningless.' The main point being that the comments are not as a direct result of this rumour, more that they are on the context of everything else that is happening, which has admirable intentions, some good signs for the future, but alsosome ****ing dull football littered with baffling decisions. (The key word being context, because alone, your comments sound reasonable, but in context, you sound a bit like that reporter that pearson had a go at)

Isolated, frustrated, doesn't run the channels, doesn't make it difficult for defenders, missing chances, lack of support. Much of which started long before Puel even arrived. He's 32 in a month, he's never going to badger players and run the channels like he did as he's just not physically capable any more. He has to conserve his energy, which probably didn't come into his mind 4 years ago when he'd bomb about all over the place.

m4DD0gg Posted 21 December 2018 Posted 21 December 2018 Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if he wants out. I'm sure we will be fine with nacho up front on his own.

I'm not saying we should pander to suit certain players but when we're struggling in terms of strikers and he's the best striker at the club surely you make the best of what you've got not continue with a slow, ponderous build up with lack of service. As I said earlier in the week, i'm asking for flexibility in our style, it's easier to change and play a style to suit the players rather than ask them to do something they're clearly not great at, get the best out of what you have. It's blatant to see all the thing @Dickov22 has desecribed and has been for a long time. The way we play and the way Vardy fits in (or rather doesn't) reminds me of everything we used to slag England off for and how frustrated/ineffective he was.
UniFox21 Posted 21 December 2018 Posted 21 December 2018 All the Vardy exit rumours don't sit right with me. Transfer request from him would do more bad than good for him and us.

I actually wasnt frustrated by England's choice of playing style. Just annoyed that they didnt put Vardy on more, especially when Kane was running on fumes. I think Vardy could still have had a part to play within that system Vardy can say it doesnt suit him and maybe he's right, but the Ranieri style stopped working for him aswell. He's missed a lot of chances this season and whilst he's not exactly making excuses there, it is handy for him to say Puel's style doesnt work for him

He's missed a fair few chances lately; e.g. Palace. Is this a case of him refusing to accept he's aging and hasnt been able to adapt as quick as he liked?

We've scored as many counters this season as we did the entire league winning season. He's having 2.2 SPG now, compared to 1.5 SPG in 16/17 when Puel wasn't here. Vardy has been out of form this year and should be once again sat with very decent figures had he taken the chances he's been presented. Whist our style clearly wouldn't be his ideal scenario, we've given him a fair amount of chances to score. If we had the attacking CM and a decent winger then I'm sure the numbers would be higher, but that'll be next on the shopping list.

We would need the team to start clicking a bit more and for Vardz to stay fit. Hard to pin the causes for stuff down at the moment (apart from blaming Puel of course :))
mozartfox Posted 21 December 2018 Posted 21 December 2018 Sell him to Chelsea. Sell Maguire to Man Utd. Sell Chilwell to Man City. Give Benkovic to Celtic for nothing. Give Wes a contract extension If I have missed anything, please feel free to add. The Transfer Window is a wonderful time of the year.
GingerrrFox Posted 21 December 2018 Posted 21 December 2018 Would anyone accept £5 million and Tammy Abraham from Chelsea for Vardy?
lgfualol Posted 21 December 2018 Posted 21 December 2018 Doubt anyone better than us will pay up and match his current wages. He is 32 and getting more injury prone. Not true anyway ciao
davieG Posted 21 December 2018 Posted 21 December 2018 Jamie Vardy admits Leicester’s style of play under Claude Puel does not suit him but the forward has vowed to do what he can to adapt to the Frenchman’s methods. Vardy has scored 20 Premier League goals since Puel replaced Craig Shakespeare as Foxes boss in October last year but the forward has often looked isolated in games. The ex-England striker netted 24 goals to help fire Leicester to the Premier League title in 2016, with the Foxes playing a more incisive and direct brand of football under former boss Claudio Ranieri. Asked if Puel's possession-based philosophy suits him, Vardy told Sky Sports News: "Does it? No, but is that down to me to adapt to it? Yes. "And obviously the only way I'm going to do that and keep progressing is working hard on the training field. "It does get a bit frustrating but we are transitioning into a different style of play. I think we've just got to keep working hard on it and eventually it will get us going forward that bit quicker because when we get into attacking positions eventually the ball will get picked out for some of my runs." Vardy is expected to be restored to Leicester's starting line-up for the trip to Chelsea on Saturday after missing the midweek Carabao Cup loss to Manchester City as a precaution following the recurrence of a groin injury. The 31-year-old confirmed he will not require surgery to cure the problem but admits playing a number of games in a short space of time is not really an option for him right now. "It's just about managing it [the groin problem]," he said. "Obviously I want to play as many games as possible, but playing the 90 minutes on Saturday there was no way it was going to get risked again [against City] on Tuesday with the chance of it putting me out long term. "I won't need an operation but it is just about managing it, which is what we've done after playing last Saturday with a full week until my next game. It's been managed in the right way and we've got a great physio department and support staff in the background. "It is frustrating but we pick up niggles all the time and if it's best for me to miss a game to make sure I am not out long term, then that is what we have to do." https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11712/11587865/leicester-striker-jamie-vardy-says-he-is-trying-to-adapt-to-claude-puels-methods
sylofox Posted 21 December 2018 Posted 21 December 2018 So has the OP gone from idiot to shite he may be right? I can't keep up with this. It must be my age.
