  8. Can Vardy get any better?published at 14:11

    West Brom v Leicester (15:00 GMT)

    If you went to Antarctica 12 months ago, without all phone signal, and suddenly returned in the last 2-3 weeks, you'd be forgiven for thinking Jamie Vardy is nailed on for Ballon D'Or.

    Even my dog knows who he is now. I think.

    But can he get any better? Claudio Ranieri certainly thinks so: "Jamie is a very smart man," said the City boss., external

    "It's more difficult to run a lot and score a goal, because sometimes you say, 'maybe you lack calm in the last 20 metres'.

    "No, he does everything 100% and miles per hour.

    "I think he can improve more because now he believes in his quality. He believes everything he tries to do could happen."

    Crystal Palace v Manchester United

    As a little teaser of the Manchester United team, boss Louis van Gaal is sticking to his guns over Wayne Rooney. The striker has come under scrutiny of late but remains first-choice. He plays alongside Anthony Martial at Crystal Palace.

    Yohan Cabaye was a doubt before kick-off,but he is fit enough to start for the Eagles.

    Former Everton defender on Football Focus

    "Everything they do is in front of the opposition they are playing against.It's easy to defend against United if you're organised and disciplined. United are not having many shots, the likes of Rooney are dangerous 25 yards further in towards goal."

    Crystal Palace v Man Utd (15:00 GMT)

    Manchester United fans might be keen to read a special interview The Times, external are running today. The focus is Cristiano Ronaldo, and the Real Madrid forward waxes lyrical about his time at Old Trafford.

    "People like Giggsy [Ryan Giggs] too. I learnt from them. I would go to training early, too. I would do exercise, strength, abdominals, core: many things. That example from the older players, I took it."
