Bablemikey Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 He's become the embodiment of Leicester City for me but if were him I would absolutely go to Chelsea if they came calling. Big club on the world stage, big pay day, another shot at Champions League football. Great end to his career. I'd be broken if he did go though and I'd doubt that the club would be open to letting him leave unless huge money & or players were involved.

Popular Post Weller 7 Posted 10 January 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 10 January 2019 I’m shocked at how many of you think this couldn’t happen. Vardy has already said he struggling to play for Puel and you need to check out Rebecca Vardy and the post she likes on twitter re Puel. IF Chelsea do come calling, those of you supporting Puel may well need to re think the negative effect he’s having on our squad. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Vardy can’t get on with what puel wants from his strikers then playing for Sarri would be just as bad, if not worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col city fan Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 However useful Vardy is to is, you can’t turn down 50 million quid for a 32 yr old who’s main attribute is pace in abundance. Chelsea wouldn’t bid anywhere that amount I don’t imagine, if they even make an offer at all. Again it shows just how piss poor our striking options are at the club. We must address this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is Leicester through and through but are we still that Leicester. If Chelsea or another higher profile team came calling, the club may say no but would he?

What a difference 3 seasons make.....According to many we had the best trustworthy recruitment team from all leagues!!! Uncomfortable thoughts...but why was Ranieri (even with title) allowed to rip up,one of the best the B.room staff systems around ,that owners and Pearson Had conscientiously built up over a decent period of time,that became the envy of many a club... Much was speculated ,never proved or shown an iota of truth on Player discontent...But off-field management turbulence,was more the cause, Of us not kicking on.In -fact off-field it does seem we imploded...but every discontenter preferred to ride the "Player" side of it!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detroit Blues Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 I'd be shocked if Vardy handed in a transfer request. Until he does, no move is happening, we're 7th in the table, and completely reliant on him for goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the negative effect on the squad but agree with you re shock that people don't think this could happen. If I were Vardy I would be very interested. Chelsea need a stop gap striker, he's got probably 2 years at the top. Final pay day, genuine chance of winnig trophies. Win win for Chelsea and Vardy. It isn't like Drinkwater at all as Vardy has already quit the national set-up. Whether there is any truth in it who knows. If it were to happen we have a very big problem as we would not be able to attract the calibre of player to score the same number of goals he does and when he plays well he sets the tempo for the whole team. He is actually more important than the manager at this exact moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can turn it down if the rest of his attributes still make him infinitely better than the rest of your strikers, and selling him makes relegation over the next two or three seasons a lot more likely. Unless we can be certain of replacing him effectively, which I don't think we could be, then two seasons of Jamie Vardy is worth more to us than £50m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keiriel Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 Maybe Rudkin can use his powers of persuasion to convince a swap for either Morata or Kante. If he's that good, maybe he can score the pair of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoareyaaa Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 Its alright having 50m in the bank but trying to replace him this season will not happen, that would say goodbye to 7th place for sure. End of the season maybe if the offer was 50m but it would be a sad day to see him leave, I think we could have him here until he was 35 and he still be banging them in off the bench however.

Hollyfox Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 I wouldn't begrudge Vardy any move after what he's done for us. Our poor efforts in the cup competitions would suggest he's not going to win anything here in the time he has left. We're building for the future but he must be tempted by a nailed on European run next season and to play in some top stadiums, which he deserves another shot at. Anyway, Roman doesn't through that kind of money at over 30's , so unless the club release him cheap, after everything he's helped us to achieve, I can't see this happening.

desertfox2 Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 (edited) Thought Chelsea only gave 1 year contracts to over 30's. I call BS on this rumour. Edited 10 January 2019 by desertfox2 Vardy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RumbleFox Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 Whichever way you look at it the Jamie Vardy story is a truly romantic one. What a fvcking legend. I hope he stays and becomes the new mascot once he retires. X 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuchsntf Posted 10 January 2019 Share Posted 10 January 2019 £50 mill for our Jamie!!! Sounds good..sounds tempting , obvious and an easy call!!! How much would we lose,if we go down without his goals,even if it's only 14-18 goals.!! ???? Many clubs have difficulties in finding a 12-16 goals ps,striker.Vardy would keep us ticking over for 2-3 seasons more!! Even at 35..experience will seem him through.You don't throw away your striker,especially one of the best still around. Puel/any manager will need him next season,and would prove brainless if they thought otherwise,and agreed with a departure. It's not a question of be careful what you wish for,...but. Be carefull,what you think you wouldn't mind so much... For banter-sake...if we lost Chilwell/Maddison//Maguire all together,I don't think it would not be so bad,as losing Vardy... The capability and instinct of sticking it between those posts,brings more of that other need!! Defence we now have,Chilwell a solid member but not unreplacable..Maddison the spark we need for our midfield,but still to realise his potential,Maguire will IMO develope into a great player, All 3 the difference in level of dream and hoping how high we can consistently hope to finish and compete in the PL!!! But a Vardy takes that dream a step higher,even if one doesn't eventually realise that dream ..! Or he helps to hold our own when we could struggle!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
