Jamie Vardy is back to his absolute best and his 16 Premier League goals so far this season not only have him riding high at the top of the goalscoring chart but have also been a contributing factor to Leicester City’s impressive position in the table.
As a striker, when things are going your way in front of goal, you always believe you will score and even after a terrible missed-kick having rounded the keeper Vardy still found the back of the net to open the scoring for the Foxes. Here’s how the fans have been reacting to the replay.
Is Jamie Vardy Leicester City's greatest ever player?

No

What do we think?
Vardy has looked as good, if not better, than the striker that fired Leicester City to the Premier League title against all odd’s in the 2015/16 season. At 32-years-old, he has shown no signs of taking his foot off the gas and has looked sharper and quicker than ever.
Signed for £1.1m from Fleetwood Town in 2012, he has to be the bargain of the decade and if he can sustain his current level of performance there is no reason the Foxes can’t push the league leaders Liverpool right until the very end.
