Jamie Vardy - Goodbye to our GOAT

[adejo92]

No way can Vardy go to Forest.

 

More chance of him coming back here!

A mate sent me a post saying Vards was talking to Forest after Genoa’s manager Viera turned him down, so hoping he doesn’t end up with the trees ffs !!🤦‍♂️

I don't think he would entertain that. Better not lol.

The two shouldn't be mutually exclusive. Any good work Puel did (what did he actually do? Play Chilwell? Macia signed the players) was completely overshadowed by his failure to finish above 9th with Vardy, Mahrez, Maguire, Ndidi etc

Ricardo wouldnt have signed without Puel, he recalled Barnes from his loan. He definitely did have an input into the likes of Maddison and Tielemans as well, Soyuncu too. Considering how evidently clueless Rudkin is you simply cant downplay the contributions of the people underneath him, Macia shares the main responsibility for the good transfer business but Puel gets credit as well.

Seeing him scoring and celebrating at the City ground would be very sour.

Should have won more with these two.

 

Imagine if Riyad had stayed as long as Vards, man..

 

I feel like Riyad did well at Man City and deserved his place in their squad as much as anyone. Obviously won trophies there.

 

But still feel he actually peaked here. He had more freedom.

He would have been seen here as a legend a great beside Vardy.

 

At Man City he's behind a stack of people! 

 

Imagine him in the Rodgers side of 19/20 and 20/21, he would have been that missing RWer.

 

We may not have challenged Man City and Liverpool, but we could have been the best of the rest.

For a brief, happy moment I forgot about Rodgers.

 

I take it back. He'd have insisted Riyad stop dribbling.

This is why the Puel revisionism is so crap, he had a decent side with two world class players in midtable finishing behind Burnley 

To be fair, he also took over a team that literally couldn't string 4 or 5 passes together under Shakey. Also our Premier League winning manager was sending a similar squad down to the Championship

 

He did a good job of moving us from playing like a rugby team into a team that looked somewhat capable of Premier League football.

 

Upset a lot of people in doing it as well. Sure he didn't coach the exciting football Rodgers brought. But also, Puel had like 3 games with Youri and one was a Spurs game that I don't know how we didn't score about 5 goals in.

 

I'd like see how Rodgers would get on with that glorious Mendy Ndidi double pivot, we kind of did get to see that to be fair haha.

Wouldn’t really like to see him in a Man Utd shirt either tbh. Although I’d be happy for him to extend his PL goal tally.

Anything but Forest

I really don’t think he’d do that to Leicester fans for one year at florist 🥲

[nnfox]

No issue with him taking 100k per week from Forest on a 10 year contract and purposefully not adding to his goal tally.  

[UniFox21]

Assume his entourage made him believe he'd be a lot more desired than he is.

Can see him packing it in soon. Going from main man running the place for a decade to bit part player at another club is a huge change.

Wouldn't shock me, either he accepts he'll be the 3rd choice impact striker at a mediocre club here/abroad or goes to an American/Saudi side.

[MPH]

Think he’s  going to have to lower his wage demands to get a decent club. Can’t expect a starter’s wage for a prem team as he won’t be a regular starter.

Much like Grealish peaking at Villa.

I feel like the main reason Vardy left was because we couldn't afford to keep him, rather than him wanting to leave given he clearly didn't have anything lined up.

We definitely said we weren’t paying that for him anymore

Or, that he was fed up being involved in the complete sh1tshow that is LCFC!!

 

I feel the same to be honest. 

 

[Guest Lako42]

If he goes to another English team then i am fully done with football. 

 

Finished 

[sylofox]

He can go anywhere but florist or spuds. Either of them he's not welcome back as far as I'm concerned.

If he goes to forest the tantrums on here will be a right laugh

[PAULCFC]

Lets face it him and his family don't need to ever work again....i know all the court things,but they are a drop in the ocean to them.......Good on him for taking a few weeks off.
