Manchester United have a chance to make an early 2016-17 statement against top-flight champions Leicester tomorrow morning.
In the build up to Sunday’s Community Shield between the Foxes and Jose Mourinho’s Man United, the gang at oulala.com have pitted the 2015-16 stats of Jamie Vardy against Wayne Rooney in a comparison to see which star forward could turn the tables at Wembley.
The best individual illustration of Leicester’s phenomenal title winning campaign, Vardy stole headlines on a weekly basis as his antics in front of goal lead the team to fairy tale glory. The 29-year-old finished with a total of 24 for the season, narrowly missing out on the Golden Boot by a solitary goal.
Conversely, under a Louis van Gaal system that never really worked, Red Devils captain Rooney only netted eight times and while he managed the same number of assists as his fellow Englishman, he took over an hour longer on average to make any impact on a game. Vardy also leads in terms of chances created and overall shots on goal.
Who will lead their side to early silverware tomorrow morning?
