What's new

Jamie Vardy

Depends on the price...if he's dirt cheap then OK...if anything above £20m then no thanks...can't see it myself though...

Not saying it's going to happen and not saying this is a 100% reliable source.
But the folks over at 100%Chelsea claim to have a "source" that says the deal is done and Vardy will be a Chelsea player by the time Leicester face us. 
Again, I'm not saying it's accurate or even reliable, just thought I'd update the thread.

Never heard of 100% Chelsea, is that a website, Twitter account etc? 

It's an interesting idea signing Vardy. He seems like a player Conte would like working with. Conte doesn't seem convinced with Michy and in truth neither am I, doesn't seem to be able to get himself into games.

 I wouldn't be surprised to see us sign another striker but surely we can't sign both Drinkwater and Vardy, that'd leave Leicester really short and they won't be able to sign replacements on such sort notice.

Youtube channel, I don't watch them often but I happened to stumble upon the video.
We're also 6/4 favourites to sign him.
I'm thinking Conte wants the ability to play with 2 up front, Michy has been great for the national team with a striking partner and Morata has had experience playing alongside Tevez. 
Possible formation: 5212
Tibo
Moses Rudiger Luiz Azpi Alonso
Kante Bakayoko
Hazard
Vardy Morata 

 
And against strong midfields we can drop Luiz in midfield and Hazard in a free role behind the striker. Imagine the pace on counter attack we'd have.

I like your way of thinking Tom, your information better be damn right.

Why thank you

 
Signing Vardy would tick a lot of boxes. Homegrown, able to lead the line alone as well as in a two, pacy, brilliant workrate, at his age it gives a clear path for Tammy Abraham to get into the team in a couple of years. 

I'd be surprised if Leicester would let him go to be honest unless it was a premium fee. 

 
Not what we need really. We need a bully who can hold the ball up and play with his back to goal.

 
It would be an absolute disgrace seeing that pikey in a Chelsea shirt, lets pray to god Leicester don't sell him to us.

 
All we need to do is buy all the WKD blue in the locality and ensure he isn't allowed to turn his stereo up. He might be having a party but he sure as f**k isn't having it at the bridge!

Oh and that pace Vardy has, will be go in 18 months or so. He's the wrong side of 30 now, look what happens when a player of that ilk loses their pace/half a yard of acceleration... Torres?

decent signing. Homegrown, works hard, and scores goals. Yes his pace will deteriorate, but we will still get a couple of good seasons out of him hopefully. 

 
Totally different profile of striker but Belotti would be what we should be looking at - a player that thrives when we dominate games.

Vardy is a small club style player. 

Underwhelmed.

 
There's no sign of Tourino dropping their price though...can't see this board spanking £80-90m on him much as I like him...

Money shouldn't be an issue.

Bargain bin dipping is what relegated Arsenal to a second rate club.

Costa going out frees up wages and would go some way to financing a move for a class center forward.

Vardy works well as an option but lumping balls over the top is a specific situation. Cesc providing those could be interesting, though.

We buy hammer warrior that break and give strong diet of ginseng and Dong Quai. He play 15 minute when Chelsea need wild báoli.

Or we buy elephant warrior who move like turtle but strike like fierce snake before he go to land of swan.
