Jamie Vardy fears for England place despite firing Leicester to second in Premier League
Leicester striker Jamie Vardy fears for his place in Roy Hodgson's England squad
JAMIE VARDY still fears for his England place despite firing Leicester to second in the Premier League.
 
The striker believes he will lose his spot in Roy Hodgson's squad if he fails to keep up his flying form.
Vardy started England's 6-0 win in San Marino this month and scored his third goal of the season in Leicester's stunning 3-2 comeback win over Aston Villa on Sunday.
 
But the 28-year-old said: "Confidence is sky-high but I know if I want to keep being involved in that England squad then I have to keep putting the performances in for Leicester first.
"Leicester is my club and I will always give 110 per cent for them. It is nice for me to be meeting up with England again but I have to put the performances in for Leicester. That is all I think about at the minute."

Vardy has completed a remarkable climb from non-league football to represent his country and become one of the Premier League's hottest goalscorers.
And he is hoping Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri's relentless messages will help him and the club avoid complacency.
The Foxes have 11 points from their first five games and sit just one place off top spot but Vardy said: "The gaffer has got it built into us that we start every game as if we are on no points and we need to pick the three up to start the season again.

"We will be doing that exactly the same this weekend - we will be back down on zero points and hopefully able to pick the three points up against Stoke.
"We know how hard the league is. First and foremost for everyone it is about making sure we are away from the relegation zone.
"Once you have got to the stage where you think you are safe, then you can reassess and maybe push on."
