Vardy is facing a potential three-match ban after being charged by the FA for his reaction to being sent off during Leicester’s draw with West Ham on Saturday.
JAMIE VARDY IS seeking leniency from the FA after accepting their improper conduct charge but requesting a private hearing.
In truth, Vardy could have few complaints about his second booking for slyly trying to win a penalty by running into Angelo Ogbonna and then throwing himself to the turf. But he is a human being and that can happen.
Carroll accused Moss of trying to “even out” the match after the dismissal of Vardy and penalty to West Ham caused uproar among the home fans inside the King Power Stadium.
Claudio Ranieri will target only a top-10 finish in the Premier League next season despite Leicester City being on the verge of winning the title.
“I’m very sad, not because of the sending off but because he can’t play the next match”.
Instead we got this from the England boss: “He has reacted like human beings sometimes react”.
Vardy, who is nearly certain to secure a place in Hodgson’s 23-man England squad for Euro 2016 barring injury, has until 6pm today to respond a Football Association charge of improper conduct as a result of his allegedly foul-mouthed reaction to being dismiss by Moss for simulation.
█ PELLEGRINI’S AGUERO CONUNDRUM MANCHESTER Manuel Pellegrini says he can not understand why Sergio Aguero has consistently been overlooked for the Player of the Year awards.
“Vardy got sent off at the weekend”.
Vardy has scored 22 Premier League goals this season, with only Spurs striker Harry Kane having scored more on 24.
