Lesta Legend Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 While I appreciate the logic of selling Vardy to maximise the money you could get from him, there is no way the club will consider this in January. Short on strikers I hear you say, yes let's sell the most prolific striking threat we have, in a window that will be more difficult to obtain a replacement. Plus there are lot of rumors regards to outgoings, big rebuild in summer it is, he'll be here at least till then me thinks I do however believe we should look at maximising Vardy's ability rather than resell value, he's a special player.

Popular Post Tanya Posted 10 January 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 10 January 2019 Right now, there is no amount of money I'd take for Vardy. With our paltry attacking options, he is priceless for the club. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuchsntf Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 I love Vardy,and 2 seasons ago Chelsea picking him up would of been good business.For them!! But he is for various reasons ingrained to this club,and all respects to our legend...He won't get regular gametime,because Chelsea can't pick a striker!!I He would be ,just misused!! Then put on the slag-heap!! They have for their standards 2 good strikers but cant, think how to use them...Sarri-problem!!! If they can't find ...for themselves ... a better striker,they do really have a problem!!!I If Vardy wanted a last chance of a last hoorah,no problems for me...but now few clubs can offer it after this season..... Unless he can guarantee in his contract gametime in specific games,and competitions after this season would be a folly!!and easy forgotten!!

We'll have our own money to spend as well, so I look at it this way. It's easier to find that replacement now with an extra £50m, than it is in 18 months without it. It won't happen anyway because they won't bid that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Sarri isn't going to change to a counter-attacking system for Jamie Vardy. Edited 10 January 2019 by coolhandfox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 If he went, I have absolutely no doubt we would be relegated within 2 seasons. Might scrape staying up next year but we would be done for. If they bung us £30m plus Abraham i'd hate taking it, but the man owes us nothing and I love him. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sphericalfox Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 51 minutes ago, MPH said: i think the problem is who do we replace him with? i mean who realistically would come to us and give us what Jamie has given us over the years? Are you asking who replace Vardy like for like or who will score us the same number of goals? Vardy does need to be replaced at some point. If Vardy can change to a new type of play, as admittedly he says he's struggling, then that's great we get a couple more years out of him. If he can't, then despite being remembered for ALL time for the success and simply immense goals he has scored, we need to part company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, we have to replace him at some point. The point is, it's easier with the money than without. It's an imminent issue we need to face with him now being 32 (well, 32 tomorrow).

AKCJ Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 One thing we all have to prepare for is that life after Vardy won't involve a 20 goal PL striker each season. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get your point and from a business point of view it's the sensible option. I feel like Vardy is the one exception is make to this. For what he's done and what he could still do for us I'd be happy for us to take the hit financially. Easy to say when it ain't my money I suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
