Keyblade Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Not really. The 5-3 is the only one I can remember. And then after that they went on an 8 game winless run iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 oh yeah its turning into a thing on here to have a go at last manager that somehow we transformed their season. They beat West Ham and drew with Spurs before we played them and were unbeaten in league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a bit of a myth that we 'played them off the park'. We were the better team in the first half, and deserved our 1-0 HT lead. Then we got a 2nd goal after 63 mins on the counter attack, with what was our only meaningful shot of the second half, we then sat back and the rest is history. Obviously we shouldn't have lost, or even drawn that game, but there's no way we played them off the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Vardy with his runs equally makes space for Mahrez....Its a team they have. We had the same aimed at us in the early 80's in terms of individual appraisal.....but we had a team.

Just that if we'd held on and beaten them they may well have not gone on their huge run. It was undoubtedly a turning point in our season, and people are just speculating as to what it might have done to Leicester. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sexbelowsound Posted December 23, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted December 23, 2015 Anybody else think Vardy could be one of the biggest transfer flops in recent times if he goes to one of the Sky 4? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I mean Benteke who was class in a terrible team is currently flopping, so Vardy who's flourishing in very convenient conditions flopping is certainly not out of the question.

Yes. He's a decent player no doubt, but on the radio this morning (so I haven't got a link) they were talking about a £30m move to Chelsea. £30m! The vast majority of Villa fans thought it was a sick joke when we were linked to him in the summer. As I said, good player, but if I supported one of the top teams Jamie Vardy would be a long long way down my wish list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaJ100 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 The thing with the FFP cartel is 30mil is small beer to them. They can take a punt for that amount no bother and if he doesn't work out just sell him to some West ham or Stoke types for half the value. Chelsea spending 30mil to get 15 back is like villa taking a 3 mil gamble and getting 1.5 mil back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 even if he doesnt move, its clever ploy to unsettle one half of where the top teams goals are coming from, its a liverpool trick to undermine their competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its happened before, players doing brilliant at unfashionable clubs and cant make step up as complete different game. Rickie Lambert probably a good example maybe Andy Johnson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's absolutely no doubt about it. He's bang average if you ask me and will return to form within the next 12 to 18 months. Mahrez is the real talent there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Vardy will almost certainly revert back to what he is, a hard working, technically very average player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 in fairness to him at moment its his hard working that is getting him into the positions to score. His movement is very good but he starting to snatch at his chances in last couple of games so maybe his confidence is dwindling after his run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rodders0223 Posted December 23, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted December 23, 2015 Quote Leicester City have signed Riyad Mahrez from French second-tier side Le Havre. The 22-year-old France-born winger, who has declared himself available for Algeria, joins for an undisclosed fee. This was around the time we were clearly scouting the French second division. So how the **** did we end up with Yacouba Sylla... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Who knows, Vardy is a hard working with plenty of pace and makes lots of clever runs. I think he could be successful but he's better suited to Leicester's style of play. I don't think a slow passing side like Man U will suit him. I hope him and Mahrez stay at Leicester this season and go on achieve something great and then make their big money moves in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
