If we have to match his salary for 1-2 seasons but pay it over longer for the books.

Whilst we should certainly try and keep him if we do go up, we most certainly cannot continue to pay his current wage - he would only get £100k+ per week if he goes abroad.
If we do go up, I believe it will be July 1st we are no longer bound by the EFL sanctions etc although I expect this to get extremely messy over the summer with possible PL punishments from 22/23 season to apply. Plus even if the EFL cannot apply any punishment to us from this season if we are in the PL, we could still get caught out by PSR rules in the PL for next season due to the way it currently works with the 3 Yr rolling losses. We will have a year in the EFL included in that where the allowed losses are lower, which is the same way Notts Forest got caught out this year.
And then there is the curve ball of what sounds like almost certain rule changes over the summer, which could then question how enforceable are the old rules and any associated punishments.

According to this, he's on £140k a week.
He's going to have a limited role next year, probably in a similar way that Kevin Phillips did for us many years ago (incidentally, I think KP coached JV and it's been said it was very helpful to his game).
So what's that worth? £20-30k a week in the modern game?

What is the value of signing someone who guarantees you close to 20 goals per season?According to this, he's on £140k a week.

£30 million as a starter, then even if we get lucky a salary of £50k per week.
5 year contract equates to £8.4 million per season, JV could cost us £4.8 million for a season (@£100k per week).
Pure maths suggests JV.

Has everyone forgotten how Vardy looked last time he played PL football?
Two years on and suddenly he's going to regress back to his best.

Do you remember how the rest of them looked?

Nobody is looking up the right avenues as per usual. Zero joined up thinking from the Leicester faithful again; obsessed with cramming oblong pegs into hexagonal tunnels.
The Birch is more or less gone. Vardy, given a microphone and a captive set of away fans, is the natural successor.

I remember how the team looked. I also remember how ****ing badly he was used and treated. It's also worth noting how many times he played with the square root of **** all talent behind or at the side of him.
Other than that though, another barnstorming attempt to tell us he's 'finished'.

Look at how he has played this season and you’ll suddenly realise he has something still to give.

I remember how you told us he was completely finished, that he would be shit in the championship, that it was now tragic to see what kind of player he had turned into, and that he shouldn’t play any more

If we win the championship he must surely be closing in on “player with the most honours whilst at Leicester”?
