Harry Partridge: Vardy: years of mediocrity, then four months world class, then five months above average. He really isn't anything special.

Fashola Michael: Harry Kane is the best choice for the number 9 role, he's young, quick & precise. Rooney no longer carries that threat.

Tomsk: Kane and Vardy are way ahead of Rooney based on form. A fit Sturridge is still Eng's best striker though, genuine top quality.

Sam: Sturridge's goals to games ratio is incredible, and he can produce a bit of magic from anywhere. Harshly treated by fans.
