but, im ok with this vardy transfer... it shows us many things: 1) wenger is changing, something some of us have been demanding for a long time; 2) it shows that wenger is taking risks: think about it, he is buying a men for a not cheap price, knowing he could not getting anything after, with a future sell i mean... this is an act that shows wengers intentions to win something, the buy is not motivated by any financial or economic reason but only for a «get the f epl once again» reason... this is an act that shows us hungry, even if we fail, we could said we try... first ever, we really try; 3) finally but very important... vardy is the kind of player we need... he is a warrior, a fighter... he has character... look at how he celebrate his goals... full of energy... he, like alexis, can motivate the team when the things are not going in our way (something wenger cant do because of his age and because he has never been an active coach on the pitch)... the vardy transfer, if it finish well, is a demostration of a change, and a good one... lets take care of winning things and do nt look the economic side for once... vardy is a bit old, but we can give a chance to welbeck after maybe, or akpom... u are not thinking about the future when we talk about ibra... guys: u complain when wenger do nt spend or because he is always looking for the bargain when u are the guys who has to pay the very expensive tickets... u complain when wenger buy the always for the future guy... like morata... stop to complain for everything and be consequent with yourself... i would love auba, but it is not going to happen... lukaku is awesome but the asking price is stupid... lets try with vardy, give us the throphy..

As a matter of fact, this is one of the main reasons for underperforming in last few years - the so called «British core» - overrated and low quality British players, well bellow, in quality, to foreigners.To spend 32 millions on 2 mediocre English players - Welbeck and Chambers - when you can get foreign «wizzards» for that type of money is suicidal.Now, go on an analyze how much Wilshere, Gibbs, Ox, Walcott and Ramsey helped the team to be the best in the last few years.And how much, for instance, did Sanchez in only few months.Alexis is better than all «British core» combined and cost a fraction of these overrated players.The time we get rid of the british players is the time we go back on top.Time will tell...

I'm so sick of people telling those of us who are disgruntled fans to relax and give this club time to correct itself... for anyone who believes that taking a wait - and - see approach is appropriate at this juncture they should take a good long look at themselves in the mirror because they are a big part of the problem... no other «big» club's fans would stand for this shit for nearly as long as we have... think about it, we've witnessed a changing of the guard at every major club in England, Spain, France and Germany in the last several years because those «big» clubs failed to live up to expectations (Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern, PSG, Chelsea, ManU, ManCity etc...)... for some reason, many fans have become as fragile as our current manager, believing that there couldn't possibly be a suitable replacement, even though everyone of these clubs have found multiple replacements and still achieved far more than our club... this mindset has been created by an organization that has been milking it's fans, telling countless lies (no world class players available) and lowering expectations every since they rolled out the biggest lie of all: that we couldn't spend because of the new stadium but once it was paid off we could compete with any team in the world... this organization is rotting from the inside out and if we don't demand that those in charge put soccer first this despicable behaviour won't end with Wenger's ridiculous 2 year contract... I think the real fear isn't that a suitable replacement doesn't exist, but that this organization is so money hungry and poorly mismanaged that we will sink even lower by choosing our next coach the same way they choose our players, on the cheap... even so, we need to see what mustache will do if left to his own devices so he will have to show his true colours... only then can we purge this club and start anew

Out of this he should spend that Lacazette money on Lukaku or Morata or Aubameyang.Morata is a player who I feel should he be given a team where he's the main man he's going to score a lot of goals.There's more to come from him.I think he'll do well here.It's a shame he usually warms the bench at Madrid.It makes him seem overrated but he's not.Lukaku has the height, physique, quality, speed, power, technique and finishing that Arsenal need in a striker.He looks like that kind of player who'll bang in a lot of goalsif given the chance in a top team.Aubameyang is very very fast and clinical and at his age he's at his best.If we sign him it's more likely he'll be here for a while than most of the two due to his age.

Of course conventionally we expect teams with relatively better players to be favourites to win the competitions.However, football since it's inception has proven to us that it's not only teams with better players that win the cups.Looking at the cups small teams have won there can be no excuses for us in that light when talking about the fact that based on spending we have no right to win things as compared to those who spend big.We've had teams good enough to win the EPL in the past but for some problems we couldn't.
