10 Years of Jamie Vardy

[Electric Yetis]

Didn't think the match would live long in the memory but privileged now that I made the long road trip to witness his debut and goal away to Torquay with @Cardiff_Fox

[car1os]

Might have missed a large chunk of the season but still has the best minutes-to-goal ratio in the top 23 goal scorers this season

[Corky]

Ten amazing years. We'll never have another player like him.

[The Horse's Mouth]

Even if we see a better striker than him at the club, I can't see anyone matching the story and all the bollocks along with it. Will truly be one of the greats and will take a special player to reach anywhere near his legacy and with the way football is if we got someone to fit that mould they'd most likely be off to greener pastures 

[Fox92]

Irreplaceable.

We'll never get another striker like him.

 

Absolute legend and still going.

[Mike the Metal Ed]

Sometimes I just watch him and think about the second hand stories I've heard of Channy, Rowley, Riley, Worthington, Weller and feel lucky to now be watching the greatest player in the history of the football club.

[HybridFox]

Not forgetting he won the goal of the season vs West Brom in 17/18. Always felt his Liverpool goal was better than Dele Alli's in 15/16 too

God help us when he retires.

[Manini]

His goals in the big games and especially against “the big 6” is absolutely out of this world.

We owe so much to Pearson. Lesser managers would never have signed him

 

"He will definitely help to take us forward"      

 

Biggest understatement since Martin Edwards said "this fellow up at Aberdeen might be worth a look".

[Guest Col city fan]

My favourite ever City player by far.

A proper legend and what a signing by the trio… big Nige, Walshy and Shakey

I defy anyone to come up with a more important, value for money signing for City, ever?

Sure, as a city fan.

I imagine his most iconic outside of the close fan base are his goals against Manchester United and Liverpool in the title winning season though.

Couldn't find a pic of him holding the corner flag there but it was one I looked for! 

[FoyleFox]

I was wrong. There I've said it. Probably the most significant misjudgement of a player. 

 

Expecting/hoping for Maynard or Sharp and we got a scrawny kid in a hoodie who looked like he'd just come from signing on the dole rather than a £1M contract to be our new star striker. Massively underwhelmed.

 

Holy $hit has he been a star striker. 

 

Absolute legend. Absolutely our 🐐

Sounds like Vards is off at the end of this season by that article.

Did you read it fully? It says he's got another year on his contract and intends to honour it?

Was a right goal. Turn, run, finish. It was the first time I genuinely believed “**** me this bloke has got something”. And that we were going up. All the talk was about Redknapp and QPR before that game too. Shut them right up.

I’m still convinced that the winner he got against West Brom was the turning point in the great escape season.

He and we, went mental when he ran in on goal and smacked it home. I remember us all feeling so dejected when we’d gone in at half time losing.

Can’t believe the left foot volley v WBA doesn’t get more attention. It’s a joke now under rated he is.
