Seriously he's a 15-20 goal a season man, runs his arse off causes back fours all sorts of issues. He's worth every penny of 60 million and more. Oh and he's English. I'm getting fed up with journalists and the media generally undervaluing our players just because we're Leicester. If Vardy was with Chelsea they wouldn't be talking 30m more like 70m. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's integral to us as a side, that in the last 18 months alone we've spent 70-80m on strikers, none of whom can oust him. No way would we accept 30m for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't participate in a forum to gain friendship or likes. Equally, if id put something guff on denouncing one footballer over another and finishing with something like I know whom I'd prefer to meet, like the opportunity was likely, I'd expect dog's abuse in all honesty!

We have ample at our disposal if we were just prepared to persevere. I see as much in KI as I do in JV, he might not play the same way but then that is down to the management to get him to try or change our game to accommodate someone other than JV. The fact is, no-one would spend more than 30 million on a sprinter in his 30's and the guys on Talksport were right in their assessment. Edit: And I wager that if both had ten equal chances in a game, KI would finish at least 5. JV two at best.

That would be the bargain of the decade for any club. He suits our game, less so as the month's pass by but he's 31 for god's sake. No-one has undervalued Jamie Vardy, Leicester fans over value him!

Edit: And I wager that if both had ten equal chances in a game, KI would finish at least 5. JV two at best. I had a similar conversation at the game on Saturday. I honestly believe that in terms of finishing that Iheanacho is the better player but lets face it, he wouldn't even get himself in the positions to have 10 chances so there's no point even comparing the two. In terms of all round player, Vardy is the best striker we have by a country mile. His footballing brain has improved no end in the last 3 seasons. His vision, his hold up play, his heading...literally everything is better than Iheanacho, Slimani, Ulloa and Okazaki put together. I wouldn't sell him for £50 million, let alone £30million. He is the focal point of how we play and set-up, alongside Kasper, Maguire and N'didi. If you seriously only see him as a 'sprinter' then I'd have to question whether you are watching the same player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grobyfox1990 Posted 22 January 2018 Share Posted 22 January 2018 I get the fact that JV is 31 and basically one hamstring injury away from obscurity, but £30m is clearly a joke, and just a ruse from talksport to get people to call in and laugh at an obviously ridiculous statement. The man has won the league, is a regular England international, competed and scored in the Champions League and broken multiple scoring records in the league. He is also the focal point of a team who are comfortably seventh in the league. Most teams would pay £30m to have him for just one season!! This is just plain logic and understanding of the current market. For comparison - a 29-year old Sanchez was worth £60m and £300k+ a week in the summer, AND he only had 12 months of his contract left! JV is £60m+ easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
