That's pretty much the worst answer you could've given.
Vardy doesn't speed up the game, he's just a fast guy who needs guys to give him the ball.
The biggest problem with that is, with the exception of five to ten teams, that England won't be able to play the destructive and defensive minded style of Leicester and won't even have anything close to that in space on the pitch.
Most teams will just sit back and all the pace in the world won't help you, if you've got no space to run into.
So yeah, Vardy's a nice(and fast) player, but he's not your answer even if there are a couple guys who could play a long ball.
The thing you actually need is more creativity and technical ability in midfield, cause you've got to create stuff against deep sitting teams.
You really haven't watched Vardy.
You haven't seen the work he does off the ball.
No-one mentioned it but it was him running back and stealing the ball that set up Kane for the 3rd (?) goal.
And you probably didn't understand my post - did you actually read the names I listed?
Dier equalises here - he's been poor and we've been a bunch of plodders.
Hopefully now we'll kick on.
