Jamie Vardy’s creative method to wind up defenders he’s up against revealed
Jamie Vardy is one of football’s greatest ever s***housers, but a new detail has shown just how far the Leicester striker will go to execute it. The 37-year-old striker is part of footballing folklore for his role in the Foxes’ astonishing 2016 Premier League title win, and is still going strong even in the final stages of his career. Vardy loves to dish it out, and it turns out plenty of research goes into his insultsGetty His trophy-winning heroics were far from a flash in the pan, as Vardy would become an England international and add an FA Cup winners’ medal in 2021. As much as he’s remained a regular scorer even in returning Leicester to the top flight, it’s really been his wind-up antics that have shown true consistency. Whether it’s mocking Crystal Palace fans with an Eagle celebration or celebrating the final goal in a 9-0 win over Southampton right in the supporters faces, Vardy is quite simply elite when it comes to the s***housery art. However, he’s even more world class than we ever imagined, according to a detail in a Daily Telegraph feature about a new Netflix documentary covering his rise from non-league to the top of the game. In it, it’s revealed that Vardy teaches himself insults in the native language of centre-backs marking him. And if that doesn’t sum him up enough, it’s added that he recently amused himself by booting footballs at the club’s training ground windows before a morning session. Vardy is also known to still continue his pre-match routine of three cans of Red Bull, a cheese and ham omelette and a double espresso. All of that adds up to one of the most eagerly anticipated football documentaries of recent years. Vardy rather incredibly was playing non-league football until 2011 when he was already 24 years old. Swapping to Fleetwood Town he smashed in 34 goals in 42 games before Leicester paid possibly the best value £1million ever seen in football. Vardy’s story is one of the greatest in the history of English footballGetty He’s still going strong in the top flight He now ranks 15th on the Premier League’s all-time scoring charts with 142 goals and certainly isn’t finished, adding ten already this season. One of them, against Tottenham in August, saw him show the numbers with his fingers to the away crowd, signalling his one Premier League title to their zero.
