    You'd hope so ... having tried one and Vardy telling them to **** off, you'd hope even Arsenal would have enough pride to respect that <laugh>

    Yeah I was pissed when we tried to sign him as a backup striker. Glad he said no! Don’t know what the club were thinking with that one, but then we do have a habit of making some weird transfer decisions.

    They don't like the bitter truth mate ... Vardy played most of our title winning season with a wrist fracture ... Ozil spends half a season out with a ****ing strain <whistle>

    Nope... Roy is bang on the money here ... we defend from the front and Vardy is no shrinking wallflower ...

    Give me a player with heart any day ...<ok>

    You can’t use Vardys consecutive goals record and then slag of Ozil who has the consecutive assists record. They’ve both had amazing seasons before. Doesn’t mean there aren’t players more suited to a particular team or that either would get picked for a 5 a side or 11 a side team.

    Why be back-up for a top 8 contender when you can play as the main striker for a club in the Champions League? ...

    Just take a minute to realise you’re agreeing with Chaos and then see if you still feel the same.

    Vardy looked on track to break that record again this season until he picked up a muscle strain (that he tried to play through - tough little ****er)... he still tops this season's Prem goals .... how are Ozil's current season assists coming along? <whistle>

    Out of interest Fosse, what would your 18man squad be if you can pick any players from the league?

    I’d be interested to see how many Leicester players you pick..

    “Looked on track” isn’t a measure of success unfortunately <cool>

    That’s definitely not the rule on here. The rule is rip the piss out of the poster. You of all people should know this by now.

    Can't be arsed mate ... but Vardy, Barnes, Maddison, Ndidi, Pereira and Soyuncu would all come into consideration ... Tielemans would have on last season form but has been a bit hit and miss ... as has Chilwell.

    Unless you are gonna base it completely on Pool and Citeh players, only a knob jockey would completely ignore the clearly third best team <ok>
