Claudio Ranieri's Approach To Get Jamie Vardy Scoring Is The Most Ranieri Idea Ever

The conventional wisdom is that if you put in 10,000 hours of practise into a skill than you should be able to master that task. That's why professional players in all sports continue to work on their trade in attempts to get the most out of themselves and become better players.

Usually, when a team goes through a tough period - the general cliche is that the team goes back to the training ground to find a solution.

But clearly conventional wisdom has gone out the window in this year's Premier League. Leicester City and Claudio Ranieri don't seem to be subscriber's to the practise makes perfect approach.

According to their top goalscorer Jamie Vardy, Ranieri has banned him from practising his shooting. Vardy, just one goal Harry Kane in the Premier League goal scoring charts, has 21 goals for the season - but has to go in goals when the rest of the team are at shooting training.

When we have shooting drills, it’s quite early in the week when the gaffer is wanting us to rest our keepers.

So normally when there is a bit of shooting, he tells me to go in goal! I’m happy to keep doing it if it means I’m helping the keepers remain fresh for the games.

Ranieri's obsession to keep his players fit, be it his goalkeepers or Vardy's shooting legs, in favour of getting some extra practise in seems to be paying off.

Leicester have gone against conventional wisdom all year, maybe we need to start re-examining what we know to be true thanks to Ranieri's men.
