[Football] Vardy to Arsenal

Francis Jeffers mark 2?
His career record was truly dire. 5 goals in 50 something appearances for Wednesday is frankly laughable.
Don't think anyone was ever going to pay £20m for him. He was more of a Rashford but believed all the hype and totally failed to deliver before disappearing into obscurity.

Vardy doesn't want to leave : "The Leicester fans give me Big Love"

Must be weird being a Leicester fan right now. After all the disbelief, the joy, the utter euphoria, now must come the realisation that life is never, ever going to get any better for their football club, and it's only ever going to be downhill from here.
Unless they win the Champions League, then they can't ever really top what they've just done. And it's more likely to go downhill very, very quickly indeed.

Meanwhile elsewhere in the league:-
Stoke City set to sign Norwich starlet Nathan Redmond after winger rejects new Canaries deal
The 22-year-old has just 12 months left and Norwich are now resigned to cashing in on the £10million-rated winger.

Indeed - a one season wonder who has thrived under the way Leicester have played - which is completely different to the way Arsenal play. Unless Wenger is prepared to throw his footballing philosophy in the bin this move, if it happens, could well turn out to be a complete farce.

Would be a small fish in a big pond and probably fade into obscurity. Stay where he is if he has sense
Absolutely spot on. And also this is why Vardy won't make any impact for England next week. He is a very specific tool for a very specific job. It is extraordinary how thick and arrogant some football coaches are, thinking they can mould any player according to their Football Genius will. Remember Zamora at Spurs: Let's beef him up in the gym and make him play a completely different way

Jeffers was a youth wonder kid who's career went backwards, whereas Vardy is a very late bloomer, so pretty much complete opposites (other than possibly being one season wonders).

On the one hand it disgusts me that a player would leave the champions of all England just to go to a so called "BIGGER" club but then on he other hand £20million for a striker that has that sort of "may go off the boil soon" type feel about him is a lot of money.
I don't want to know what this is all about

And they'll then be knocking at our door for Knockart.
I don't see the point of getting hung up by the price tag.
Let's not forget Arsenal are sitting on something like £150,000,000 before the £200,000,000 cheque lands on the doorstep.
To paraphrase [MENTION=19969]indy3050[/MENTION]:-
£20m has just become 'only' £20m.
