Would you take Jamie Vardy next season;

[roperclaret]

Would you?

[Bosscat]

NO he is 38

[Woodleyclaret]

No chance he had his opportunity to join us when at Fleetwood. Now we'll past his best.

[LTUK89]

100%

[Tribesmen]

No,as past it and would not fit in with team , he would split the dressing room i could feel it .

[Darnhill Claret]

No, he's been brilliant but not for me.

[mybloodisclaret]

No.... 2 years ago maybe. Not now.

[Darnhill Claret]

Thought Barney had a very good game today, all over the pitch.

[mdd2]

These days Barnes offers more

[Indecisive]

Absolutely not.

[Moorite]

If we still had a Dyche team I would have said yes. Under Parker and Pace. Definitely not.

[billyhamilton82]

Yes

Scored 18 in Championship last season and so far got 8 out of the 29 Leicester have scored this season.

He is a finisher.

We will play on the break next season, no one fits that role better for what we can afford.

Its no time to risk it ALL on youth and hope it flourishes ala Kompany, we also need proven quality in the mix.

Age is but a number, we need someone who knows where the net is, and there is no-one better IMO.

[martin_p]

No, can’t stand the bloke.

[Wile E Coyote]

yes, he is fit as a butchers dog, short term he would be effective. His experience and goal scoring exploits have been beyond normal.
that kind of ability is rare, and were it possible, he would be a great signing.

[Rowls]

No.

Think he’ll do a season at sheff weds.

[Commy]

I watched Leicester a few weeks ago and he doesn't seem to have lost his pace so could be a good signing.

[ElectroClaret]

I'd take his wife....

[Colburn_Claret]

No, but a 20 something version of him would be nice

[forzagranata]

If he scores three winning goals - that's six points that could be the difference between staying up and going down.

And that difference is worth millions.

[BleedingClaret]

Yep

[Milltown1882]

100%

[beddie]

After watching him last night on MOTD he does look to still have good pace and certainly knows where the onion bag is. For somone of his age he’s still got plenty to offer so yes I’d certainly take him, even if it was only one season, he might just make the difference in keeping us up.

[Guller Bull]

Vardy and Kane on the bench to give Zian a rest and if (only if) Fossie is unavailable for some reason.

[Vincent'sCap]

No thanks he would bring that awful woman with him,his overbearing wife we don't want that circus at our club.

[quoonbeatz]

No.

[Claretitus]

No, no, and thrice no.

[daveisaclaret]

Rather reminded of the people who didn't want Eric Dier when he was linked with us. Vardy is a very good footballer and would be a good signing.

[Claretitus]

Rather reminded of the people who didn't want Eric Dier when he was linked with us. Vardy is a very good footballer and would be a good signing.

But he has openly stated that his body can’t sustain it any more. So why? To have him in the treatment room on a fat salary? No thanks.

[Jakubclaret]

I'd take his fellow teammate jordan ayew before him with similar stats less goals but less games & 5 years younger.

[daveisaclaret]

But he has openly stated that his body can’t sustain it any more. So why? To have him in the treatment room on a fat salary? No thanks.

He has started 33 games this season and missed 2. You are just imagining him in the treatment room for no reason.

[warksclaret]

There are people on here still feel Barnes has something to offer, yet totally ruling out Jamie Vardy coming to us. I know one thing for certain , Barnes much as I like the guy and what he stands for, would never have played nearly every game for Leicester this season was he in their squad, let alone score 8 PL goals in a VERY POOR PL side. I have seen him in the flesh in 7 games this season and his control and acceleration off a standing start are still up with many good PL front men. There is still a very good season in this guy even at PL level

[Steddyman]

He has started 33 games this season and missed 2. You are just imagining him in the treatment room for no reason.

And scored less than Foster did for us in the Premier League, playing more games.

[Steddyman]

Actually, similar points per game for probably 4x the salary:

Vardy - 8 in 33 = 0.24 PPG
Foster - 5 in 24 = 0.20 PPG

He's not the Messiah, he's just a very naughty boy

[billyhamilton82]

Vardy - 8 in 33 = 0.24 PPG
Foster - 5 in 24 = 0.20 PPG

I assume you mean GPG?

Salary doesn't come into because he's on a free

[jedi_master]

Take him every day of the week. I think we need two strikers - be good to perhaps spend big on a Tella or similar and then get Vardy on a free (huge salary not withstanding). Id be delighted with that.

[Venkys4eva]

No

[pureclaret]

No, but a 20 something version of him would be nice

Is that not what we have in Foster?

[billyhamilton82]

Forwards

Vardy (CF)
Salech or Sargent (CF)
Tella (CF/RW)
Foster (CF/LW)
Flemming (10/CF)
Amdouni (10/CF)
Anthony (LW/RW)
Edwards (RW)

If space in squad add Koleosho / Tresor, otherwise loan out / sell.

Enough quality, goals, fluidity and pace in that group to keep us up.

[Silkyskills1]

Absolutely NOT.

[It Is What It Is]

His Missus wouldn't let him.

[billyhamilton82]

Brilliant assist for Leicester second.

Would take him in a heartbeat, looks very, very sharp.

[ksrclaret]

He's been poor overall this game though.

Having him as just about their only option up front is a massive reason why they're so far short. The dressing room behaviour hasn't helped either, mind.

[CaptainKirk]

Is that not what we have in Foster?

I presume you are joking?
If Foster is the answer, we are in real trouble.

[Goliath]

8 in 33 for such a poor side is good. The worry is he could just come back from a heavy summer and never get back to that level. At some point he will just drop off and there's a good chance of it being this summer

[billyhamilton82]

He's been poor overall this game though.

Disagree, his movement and leading the line was exceptional and always available on the shoulder ready to break.

The fact his team mates don't understand and it wasn't until the introduction of 15 year old Monga to show how his pace and movement should be utilised isn't Vardy's issue.

It's all opinions isn't it. I saw his team members create a great opportunity for him in the second half which he cocked up.

He's been a great player over the years but I don't fancy him for Burnley next year.

[brexit]

Forwards

Vardy (CF)
Salech or Sargent (CF)
Tella (CF/RW)
Foster (CF/LW)
Flemming (10/CF)
Amdouni (10/CF)
Anthony (LW/RW)
Edwards (RW)

I really don't understand the opinions of Tella. He was an excellent player in an excellent team in the championship, but he has 2 goals in 26 appearances for Beyer L and will cost at least 15M not worth it.
We are better off with someone like brewster a quarter of the price and he bagged 4 in 36 or vincius from fulham again cheap 8 in 52 and nearly 1 in every 2 games for benfica.

[Clovius Boofus]

I don't want him here.

[IanMcL]

Rather reminded of the people who didn't want Eric Dier when he was linked with us. Vardy is a very good footballer and would be a good signing.

You mean the Eric Dier playing centre back at Bayern Munich? (German Champions)

I would rather have Vardy. Greater need.

[ISpeds00]

No - Vardy is a rat
