    And here we are all stressing over loosing RK. Leicester won the bloody league and are still losing their main striker.

    once someone has read the contract to Vardy :emoticon-0130-devil, he would be a fool not to join Arse. Imagine the supply he will get from Ozil and Sanchez, he will be knocking on the door of 30 goals next season- probably the first English player to score more than 30 since shearer

    That's the lack of serenity at SFC that's done that. Would have come here otherwise. ;)

    That's a star puppet for the pantomime. Pure entertainment, a little bit more value to the price of the ticket.

    He may even get regularly picked as a starter for England ahead of Rooney.

    This stinks of the Townsend to Newcastle deal. Redmond will likely have a blinding season for Stoke now.

    Arsenal will ruin him as a player. Make him even richer though. Which one is more important to the average footballer.?

    29 years of age, can you blame him? Plus he probably does stand more chance of success at arsenal. At his age he has one last chance to move and that's this season.

    What an amazing comment. Leicester won the title two weeks ago. Arsenal eleven years ago.

    Lets not kid ourselves. It's all about money. If winning the league in such historical and dramatic circumstances doesn't bond you to your teammates to one more season (with a new Champs League adventure) then footballers have simply ceased being human.

    Sounds like Arsenal may be ready to part with Walcott, Alex or both.

    Not particularly amazing comment. Leicester won the league last year was such a big deal because it was a massive shock. You honestly think Leicester have a better shot at silverware next year than Arsenal? I'd make a bet with you here and now that arsenal win a trophy before Leicester (not community shield crap)

    If Leicester kept all their players and added a few I would definitely take that bet.

    very harsh on him. Vardy was playing non league 4 years ago. Arsenal pretty much guarantees him European football for next 3/4 years. Leicester does not. Dreamland for him (not to mention the wages - he will have earned significantly less than most Pl players during his career). He's earned this one opportunity to play for a huge club and needs to make the most of it IMO.

    People acting like there's some kind of trade-off between winning vs money. There isn't, and in fact they go hand-in-hand.

    Yes, it's all about money. Which means that bigger clubs like Arsenal will always have more available cash to sign good players. Which means you can have your cake and eat it, too.

    Don't forget who has given him the opportunity. Without Leicester Vardy would still be in the lower leagues, and in his own words, he may have even quit the game. Now suddenly he just wants to jump ship at the absolute first sign of more cash.
