The Jamie Vardy appreciation thread

[FOX Franks]

In with every chance of pinching the golden boot this year.

Pinching? He's three goals clear!

Five goals clear of Abraham now.

 

[Brown Nose]

96 goals in 192 Premier League appearances now.

4 to reach his century.

8 games scored in a row.

A ****ing phenomenon.

Yet Puel dropped him for Gray...

He’s making the extraordinary seem quite ordinary.

Sorry but if he was that good he would be playing for a big club like Arsenal.

So, Vards had a similar drought in 15/16 at a similar time. Could be the amount of games he plays, maybe just a bad run of form which has coincided with the team's run of bad form. Now he's got an injury which hopefully is just a twinge in his arse muscle. Not scored for 8 games in all competitions, 6 in the Premier League.

I for one would love him to be top scorer over the season which could prove to be difficult this season with many top players around him in the charts. Though his stellar first half to the season has clearly kept him at the top despite his poor form. At the very least, he can beat his personal best - 24 goals scored in the PL in 15/16.

8 goals in 14 games is what's required to beat his best.

As far as I can see he’s only played in five games since last scoring against Man C, 4 in the league, and one of those he only lasted 40 mins.

Aye - but he didn't score in the three games he missed either so TSC is perfectly correct.

Darren Eadie hasn't scored for us in over 800 games in all competitions. Give or take.

Hell of a stat. Come to think of it, when was the last time Alan Shearer scored in a Leicester shirt? Useless wanker.

 

[FryattFox]

In the context of that it was against WHam * 2 and Newcastle, but 3 goals and 3 assists in those 3 games.

Perez and Iheanacho have certainly stepped up when Vardy has been out.

Wow I must really have Alzheimer’s because I don’t remember him scoring 23 goals

It's not the clearest, is it?

Fantasy league points, not goals.

Been a while since he scored. On a personal level I'd love to see him get the Golden Boot award. Was one away in 15-16.

If he scores the team tends to do well this season. So let's hope he bangs a double this Friday.
