i was more saying it for Man U fans. I'm actually indifferent towards pretty much every team except being a Aston Villa fan. I would like to see Leicester City win it all because the story is good but I mostly just like watching good soccer.

Vardy is probably sold after the season, I could see him staying but unlikely. He will stay in England though. Mahrez is going to be paid soooooooo much though.

Of the two I think Mahrez could handle playing on a big club. I liken Vardy more to a Rickie Lambert, Michu type who has one huge year but can't quite cut it year in year out and not on a big club. May be a bit harsh but just my opinion

Vardy is 29, he's not going to command a ton of money.

Seventeen goals today in five matches....scored by sixteen different players.

Yeah, I feel age is what is going to set Vardy back. BTW, I just read this about Leicester City "Small teams hardly ever win anything in club soccer anymore. So dominant have the big boys got, that we have been reduced to treating Leicester City -- the 24th-richest soccer club on earth -- as a Cinderella."

disgusting how?

i would assume all the premiere league team are at or near the top of the list cause they get absurd TV and broadcasting money just for being in the league.

if the top teams are worth 4 or 5 times as much and spending that much more on players it's more than fair to consider them a cinderella even if they are in that top 30 list
