Man utd considering move for Jamie Vardy

[uneasydaz]

Replace 37yr old Ronaldo with 36yr old Vardy that's the way to go


MANCHESTER UNITED are considering a move for veteran Premier League and Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy, according to reports.

The Red Devils are in the market for a striker this summer.

Anthony Martial has returned to training in a boost to Erik ten Hag.

The Frenchman had a promising pre-season with United, scoring three.

However, United could lose Cristiano Ronaldo this summer with the player wanting to leave Old Trafford in search of Champions League football.

The 37-year-old drew criticism as United fell to a shock 4-0 defeat at the hands of Brentford on Saturday.

The loss leaves Ten Hag with two defeats from two and rock bottom of the Premier League.

And according to The Athletic, one of the strikers United are considering is 36-year-old Vardy.

The iconic Premier League striker is in the final year of his contract at the King Power.

Vardy has been a consistent goal scorer for the Foxes, netting 15 league goals or more in six of his last seven seasons

The former England international played a major role in Leicester's shock Premier League title win in the 2015/16 season.

And he helped the club win their first ever FA Cup in 2021.

Vardy isn't the only striker United are looking at.

Out of favour Paris Saint-Germain ace Mauro Icardi is also an option for the Red Devils.

A move for Atletico Madrid striker Alvaro Morata has also been considered.

And Espanyol's Raul de Tomas is reportedly subject to transfer talks.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Decent short term fix imo

He is better than what is there just now at least

 

[govanrear1987]

What’s going on at Man Utd beggar belief

 

[ssblue]

He is 35 not 36 and scored 15 in 25 last season.

They could do worse, and probably will.

 

[Sir Know it All]

genuinely find it head wrecking that about 7 or 9 teams in the EPL don't just sign Morelos

Not that it has been implemented yet, but from a style fit alone Vardy makes next to no sense

 

[Wordy_Rappinghood]

Icardi would be a great signing for them in theory.

 

[Clicker]

They’ll end up with Kevin Kyle on 300k a week.

 

[RangersEasyOK]

Decent short term fix imo

He is better than what is there just now at least

Short term fix to what ? This is why they are where they are, buying players with zero thought process just get a body in that’ll solve the issues

 

[Bulletproof]

Vardy may plug a hole briefly but Morata is gash. Wouldn't swap any of the strikers named for Alfie which considering it's Man Utd tells you everything you need to know about what's happening at the club.

 

[venturablue]

No one wants to go there.

 

[No Money No Problems]

Vardy... Icardi... Morata...

 

[bluetonic]

They’re too late , they should have moved for him when Leicester won the EPL

 

[Sir Know it All]

No one wants to go there.

loads and loads of players would TBF, but they just sign players of a really sh*t profile.

 

[evo14]

Nah, they’ll end up signing someone with a fancy sounding name who has made 4 sub appearances for Espanyol for £80m.

 

[Crouchy]

Just watching SSN, Everton, Brighton, Man Utd - they could all benefit from a Morelos.

(Hopefully they don’t come knocking).

Vardy would be shite at Utd.

They’re a joke.

 

[venturablue]

loads and loads of players would TBF, but they just sign players of a really sh*t profile.

No one that will get them close to winning titles again.

 

[Barrymoped]

They’re too late , they should have moved for him when Leicester won the EPL

To be fair Arsenal tried, and they were a regular top 4 club then, and Vardy knocked them back and chose to stay at Leicester.

Fair enough, he is now an all time club legend because of it.

 

[W 2]

 

[The Crimson King]

Would be a decent enough option, but the fact they're scrambling for just 'decent enough' is a bit of an indictment of how much of a basket case club they've become.

 

[Sebo1872]

Time to whip up the YT clips of Roofe and send it on the to the Man Utd PR team.

 

[Sir Know it All]

No one that will get them close to winning titles again.

this season, no, but they should be accepting of that and looking to sign players who will at least get them there and looking to lower the age profile of their squad and build a timeline to a title

making additions on the way back down is solving very little for them

 

[-Hendo-]

Cr7 stuck in that awful team. Will he manage to escape before the window shuts....

 

[bluestory]

Vardy's time is up. Would be a great move for him but an utter shite signing for Utd.

They're a parody now tbh.

 

[Blueranger45]

Icardi would be a great signing for them in theory.

Icardi's wife/agent with Rabiot and his maw

not saying they are bad players but they are ones you turn to when you can't convince the better ones to go to your club

 

[craigiebear]

It's blatantly obvious its a midfield they are needing

 

[Square it!]

Vardy will jump at that, he has his wife’s legal bill to pay.
Brenda was in major torn faced mode at the weekend due to lack of new signings

 

[TQ3]

Does that mean if we beat PSV we have a chance of signing CR7?

 

[warfieldranger]

At least he would run around a bit, unlike the rest of the team.

 

[linthousebear1981]

Seriously, if this is their answer they are beyond help now. Vardy is done.

should sign his son too then

 

[Skoosh1872]

Vardy has been a very good Premiership striker but the way he plays is suited to teams that hit on the break.
That shouldn’t be the way Man U setup.

Like the last 5+ years just feels completely scattergun and reactionary.
Honestly no idea what’s going on there.

 

[sheddensbear]

Rebekah would love this, think of her social media.

 

[Govan85]

That would sum Man Utd up these days. Some fall from grace. Pleasing

 

[Highland Gers]

No wonder Man UTD are a mess-Short term fixes is what they don’t need. Vardy is not the answer to their problems

 

[WinkieWATP]

Vardy may plug a hole briefly but Morata is gash. Wouldn't swap any of the strikers named for Alfie which considering it's Man Utd tells you everything you need to know about what's happening at the club.

Morata gets some cracking moves for a striker that misses so many chances.

 

[GR6Ger]

Gone from best in the country to the laughing stocks.

Which is nice.

 

[JMCK]

Does a move like this, and yesterday's training session indictate that a lack of desire exists in that squad? Vardy's best days are behind him, but he guarantees commitment, and maybe that's what their manager is looking for right now.

 

[Disraeli]

They are a laughing stock. Incredible how poor their transfer strategy has been this summer. Only singing of note a 5’9 Center Back.

Obviously I don’t want him to go, but it amazes me they haven’t looked at Morelos yet.

By EPL standards, he wouldn’t cost a fortune and is proven in both British football and in European competitions. He’d add some energy and agression to a team who look so weak and insipid at the moment as well.

 

[dt17]

Cr7 stuck in that awful team. Will he manage to escape before the window shuts....

That's one way of looking at it.

Another would be that Man Utd are stuck with a petulant man child who cries at training because the manager has asked him to run.

 

[TN8]

Genuinely hilarious.

 

[cloodie]

Is Denis Law still a free agent?

 

[Souness86]

He will need the signing on fee to pay his grass wife's legal fees.

 

[TheScotty]

Gone from best in the country to the laughing stocks.

Which is nice.

Why is it nice?

Genuinely don’t understand the ill feelings toward Man Utd on here

 

[UnionBear]

Loving the Manure stuff these days. Great viewing.

Get it right up them and their fans

 

[devilman]

Not really the worst idea from them at the moment. Quite surprised bigger clubs didn't make a move for Vardy sooner.

 

[David Edgar]

He is 35 not 36 and scored 15 in 25 last season.

They could do worse, and probably will.

This second sentence is probably the most accurate thing posted on FF, ever.

 

[dt17]

Why is it nice?

Genuinely don’t understand the ill feelings toward Man Utd on here

Probably get some posters coming along saying they're the Celtic of England...then someone else will say actually that's Liverpool, then another Everton.

 

[WDYGH]

Time to whip up the YT clips of Roofe and send it on the to the Man Utd PR team.

They can get Simpson to shore up their defence at a snip for a mere £30m.

 

[jackstar]

genuinely find it head wrecking that about 7 or 9 teams in the EPL don't just sign Morelos

Not that it has been implemented yet, but from a style fit alone Vardy makes next to no sense

I think Vardy or any player going there would have serious misgivings. Gary Neville mentioned it,that any potential target would be in two minds because of the state they're in.

 

[Bulletproof]

Morata gets some cracking moves for a striker that misses so many chances.

If I had a pound for everytime I had him down as FGS then I would have enough to cover the loses incurred from backing him to score. Irony!
