Jamie Vardy has achieved just about everything during his remarkable Leicester career but not even the greatest player in the club’s history can solve their problems at the back.
When a striker is in form like this, the team can usually cash in. Yet Leicester are in such a muddle in defence that both Legia Warsaw in the Europa League on Thursday, and Crystal Palace on Sunday will fancy their chances — regardless of how well Vardy is playing.
The Foxes have kept only one clean sheet in their last 12 league matches and conceded nine shots to Sean Dyche’s team.
