Vardy bought at 1m

His evaluation should be around 30 by now. And twice that after that EPL trophy.
arsenal almost bought him for 30mill but I think he's at the point where he can't be sold/bought again

On a serious note, I don't trust Liverpool to win their last two games. Now would Leicester beat Spurs?
Nah Liverpool will win their remaining games. I think Leicester-Spurs might end in a draw.

Other midfield options didn't have a good season tbh. The likes of Ndombele, Camavinga, etc. He went for experience I guess.

Wilfred ndidi has 3 assist in the epl this season as a DM

That’s impressive

Where is komekn self grin

I would not say thats exceptional for any player maybe goalkeeper yes. But not for a Midfielder defensive or offensive.

However, the exponential rise of KC is close to miraculous his mother must be a prayer warrior.

Against all odds and predictions he has excelled, he is undoubtedly in the HERE and NOW the best forward player in the SE no contest.

I said very early on in the season that if he can score 12 goals in the EPL then we can say he has shaken off the cobwebs of the past 4 years of mediocrity.

He is now a major player for Leicester, has he overtaken Vardy not yet.

One bad game and he was back to the bench

If I remember, Vardy has been mostly mediocre all season, yet he gave vardy much more opportunities to redeem himself


Really hmmm

Vardy has scored 13 goals this season thats very mediocre according to you. He has also been consistently scoring for the past 5 years as a top scorer in the EPL. Indeed to this is h I s worst goal tally in the EPL in the last 7 years.

KC has scored 12 absolutely impressive but Vardy is mediocre.

Hmmm your deductions are baffling.

Those Leicester city players were just trying to inflict injury on Chelsea's players,

The first was from the Elves looking guy and the guy Rudiger pushed but the referee didn't give cards,

That foul on Chiwel was intentional. Rudiger saw it and reacted.
