Never change, Jamie Vardy! Leicester striker trolls Tottenham fans for the club’s lack of a Premier League title – before an X-rated spat with Cristian Romero – after earning Foxes a point on his return to the top flight

Jamie Vardy was up to his usual tricks during Leicester’s 1-1 draw against Tottenham Hotspur as he brutally trolled Spurs fans after he was substituted.

Vardy, 37, returned to the top flight with a bang as he netted as 57th-minute equaliser to earn a surprise point for the newly-promoted side.

Steve Cooper‘s Leicester had been under the cosh for the majority of the match until Vardy delivered the sucker punch to the north London team.

The former England striker, who had been an injury doubt before the match, couldn’t see out the full 90 minutes and was substituted with 79 minutes on the clock.

As Vardy left the pitch he couldn’t help himself and decided to taunt the away support for their lack of a Premier League title.

After handing the captain’s armband to team-mate Harry Winks, Vardy took the opportunity to turn to the Spurs fans before heading off the pitch.

He first points at the Premier League badge on the sleeve of his shirt before pointing to himself and then raising one finger to indicate his title win in the 2015-16 season.

The striker then points back to the badge before aiming his finger in the direction of the Spurs fans and motioning the number zero, highlighting the fact Tottenham are still yet to win a Premier League title.

As he finally left the pitch he also got into an x-rated spat with Spurs defender Cristian Romero.

The Leicester man was caught telling the Argentine centre-back to ‘f*** off’ in a heated argument. 

Following the match, Vardy was asked about the incident, but he played it down as just a bit of fun.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Vardy said. ‘You take a bit of stick during the game, but it’s part of football. As long as they can take it when I’m giving it back, that’s all that matters.’

The 37-year-old turned to the Tottenham fans and at first pointed to the Premier League badge 

He then pointed at himself wile showing one finger to highlight that he had lifted the trophy once back in 2016, while Tottenham have not won it since it’s reincarnation in 1993

Former Liverpool defender, Jamie Carragher, who was working on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football show, loved Vardy’s tongue-in-cheek gesture.

‘Thank God Jamie Vardy went and seen Steve Cooper midweek and said he was ready, ready to play,’ said Carragher. ‘And I mean, never change Jamie Vardy.

Vardy’s strike against Spurs was his ninth Premier League goal against the club, he has only netted more against their rivals Arsenal, and Watford.

It was also his 103rd goal since turning 30 years of age, showing that he still has what it takes at the top level of English football.

His performance earned a lot of praise from pundits, no less so than Carragher who was in awe of his display.

‘That was Vardy at his best,’ Carragher added. ‘He could have scored the winner and he got the goal to start with.

‘It was chalk and cheese the second half performance [from Leicester], and there was energy in the stadium.’

The former Liverpool defender’s fellow pundit, Gary Neville, was also left impressed by Vardy’s performance.

Speaking on Sky Sports, Neville said: ‘I loved it when he first came into the Premier League when he came into our sights, the idea of this non-league mentality playing.

‘He’s a throwback, but I did think he’d be one of those players that relies completely on his pace, running off the shoulder, counter-attacking.

‘Then when he actually lost his pace or lost a yard, he’s still quite quick, I thought he would find it difficult to adapt his game, which I think many others have, but he’s still going at 37.’
