A Jamie Vardy party is always worth waiting for and after 16 games without a goal, fun was back on the agenda big-time with his first-ever Leicester City hat-trick.
Not only did a brilliant striker’s treble end his Foxes drought, it made Pep Guardiola and Manchester City look ridiculous. £47.5million John Stones in particular will have a bad hangover this morning, and not one he enjoyed getting.
From the opening whistle, 29-year-old Vardy was a man possessed, wild-eyed and jet-heeled as usual but with a clear sense of control and purpose too.
The shambolic visitors simply couldn’t cope with the energy, intensity and, yes, intelligence.
