Jamie Vardy's performance was like a silver lining for Leicester City this season, as the 2017-18 season was a disappointing one for them. The Foxes will take heart from the fact that the '31-year-old' found his scoring boots once again. His ability to run through the defenses with his electric pace unsettled the best opposition.

He scored 20 goals in 37 Premier League games this season. Jamie Vardy can also play in different attacking positions. The England international can link up well with the midfielders and has this knack of creating chances for other forwards. Jamie Vardy was excellent to position himself inside the oppositions box with his swift moves during many occasions, but couldn't find the support at times.

The striker is known for giving 100% on the field which infuses a lot of intensity in the forward line. The striker had formed a deadly combo along with Rayad Mahrez in the 2015-16 Premier League when the Foxes won the title dominating every opponent they came up against.

The former Fleetwood Town player looked quite good with long crosses, but was not able to stamp his authority like he did in the 2015-16 season. Though Leicester City couldn't replicate the performances of the 2015-16 season, Jamie Vardy's performances in the latter part of the season helped them finish 9th in the points table. The striker will be eager to prove his class in the upcoming World Cup in Russia and in the 2018-19 Premier league season.
