yuvala 2,167 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Not happening.. just spent 70M on a striker and we have far more important signings to make. Plus they wont let him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
termninja 5,290 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 If we plan to play with 2 strikers, we certainly need a 3 strikers. If he is available for a decent fee then he's certainly among the best we can bring but I can't see this transfer happening. Does anyone know how much years Vardy has on his contract?

Pizy 18,994 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 He'd be the perfect Plan B striker but he's the one player who is irreplaceable for Leicester. There's no chance they sell him at this point in the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gadget 126 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Wouldn't mind this one. we haven't got a striker that harasses defender i.e a Tevez type menace. Vardy would be decent for a couple of years although other positions should be a priority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I love Michy as a guy, and think he has immense potential, Vardy has more about him right now, without a shadow of a doubt, not even a debatable point. Vardy's age is what puts me off, 30m ish for a 29 yr old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akgw13 867 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I have no interest in Vardy. He is a fine player, a hard worker, willing runner, pretty good finisher. But for the price they will want and his age? no thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vardy's age is what puts me off, 30m ish for a 29 yr old. He's 30, going into 31 in 5 months. But it wouldn't put me off. We need another striker and I don't see any great options. Vardy for 2 years, why not ? Unless we're relying on Morata and Michy for a whole season which is ridiculous. Vardy and Morata in a duo? It could work. Against any good side we're always playing on a counter anyway so let's sign someone who's pretty good at this. Vardy is actually elite playing on a counter. We won't change, we'll be approaching any big game with that underdog mentality. For me it makes a lot of sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think they will demand for him if they want 40m for Drinkwater? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's completely irrelevant for their evaluation. I give you example. If Chelsea value Vardy at 30m£ and sign him for 20m£ and then go for Van Dijk who they value at 50m£ they won't pay 60m£ because they saved 10m£ on others. It's been a case for years that Chelsea make their own evaluation of a player. So really don't bother with the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that, but price paid is still an important figure especially when the player is an ageing striker reliant on pace. if its 30m or under im fine. 30-35 meh. 35 and over i don't like the deal. Budget matters and using more than we need to on an ageing player is not something i am interested in personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I like this for these reason's. 1. He's got a strong mentality, led Leicester in a title race and delivered the goods in the CL knockout stages. 2. He would be a great alternative to Morata and i'm truly not big on Michy as a lone striker at-all tbh. Imagine if we brought Vardy on vs Spurs while they were committing men forward? They would have probably reverted back ten yards knowing one big punt over the top could have ended them. 3. He's a good safety net in case Morata needs time to adjust. 4. Would give us the depth (if Michy stays) to play 2 up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinAshburner 1,270 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Jamie is a girl name and feminine sounding and trying to act tough, his parents should have named him James or Jimmy instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
