Jamie Vardy tends to score 1 goal a game but is fairly onsistent (very good mins to goal ratio) and creates assists. I don't think he has scored a hattrick all season.
Also LCFC needed to put a message out to Spurs and Arsenal (who were still in the EPL race before the Sunderland draw) that they are not a one man team.
Ulloa (whom I'm no fan of) needed to put a message out that he's not a sub par championship level journeyman. And fair play he's been better in later stages of this season (last grasp Norwich goal, last gasp penalty against West Ham etc)
