WATCH: Soccer AM team-mates with Leicester forward Jamie Vardy

Jamie Vardy meets Soccer AM's Tubes to go through his Leicester team-mates, including the biggest diva and the most fined...
The Foxes forward has scored 14 league goals in 2016 - only seven Premier League players have more - and played a key role in Leicester's remarkable title triumph. But what about the rest of his Leicester colleagues?
Asked by Tubes to name the best footballer at the King Power, Vardy said: "If you look at it overall, including skills, you have to give it to Riyad Mahrez.
"He is always full of tricks, it's all he wants to do. He probably should be a freestyler! He makes a few of the lads look a bit silly but you just kick him!
"In training, he would happily only nutmeg two people then go in after the session and say he had the best training ever. As long as he has got a few megs in, he's happy.
"Christian gets a few, and he flip-flapped Christian recently, which was very pleasing to watch."
And it was the same answer when Tubes asked Vardy who picks up the most fines at Leicester.
"Riyad Mahrez! It's for the same thing every time, being late," Vardy said.
"He lives five minutes away and still can't get into training on time. I don't think he has an excuse either.
"We have pre-match at the stadium and he's either late or there's two seconds to go. But he pays his fines so you can't complain."
