It was four years ago when Jamie Vardy was lauded as the best striker around.The Leicester man scored for the 10th consecutive Premier League match, equalling Manchester United legend Ruud van Nistelrooy’s long-standing record, before going on to make history by breaking it.
5Vardy's record-breaking run
1. Bournemouth 1-1 Leicester – 29 August (one goal)2. Leicester 3-2 Aston Villa – 13 September (one goal)3. Stoke 2-2 Leicester – 19 September (one goal)4. Leicester 2-5 Arsenal – 26 September (two goals)5. Norwich 1-2 Leicester – 3 October (one goal)6. Southampton 2-2 Leicester – 17 October (two goals)7. Leicester 1-0 Crystal Palace – 24 October (one goal)8. West Brom 2-3 Leicester – 31 October (one goal)9. Leicester 2-1 Watford – 7 November (one goal)10. Newcastle 0-3 Leicester – 21 November (one goal)11. Leicester 1-1 Man United – 28 November (one goal)To put the achievement in context, Vardy was plying his trade for Stocksbridge Park Steels’ youth team when the United forward was giving goalkeepers nightmares. From there on, his route to the top was hardly a glamorous one, with humbling spells at Halifax Town and Fleetwood Town, before his break with the Foxes in 2012, the then Championship club paid around 1m for his services.That moment against Newcastle was just one of many highlights for both Vardy and Leicester in a fairy tale 2015/16 season, which culminated in Premier League glory, one of the greatest sporting achievements of all time.
