Jamie Vardy - BBC Sport - Vardy set to reject Arsenal

[Kano]

To be fair Liverpool came only one Gerrard slip away from winning that outright and were only just pipped by a team who had themselves also managed to score a shedload of goals that season (Aguero and Negredo went mental that year iirc).

Someone will lookup it up but it's no coincidence that the team that scores the most goals in a season is usually the team that wins the league. Sure it's no guarantee of success but it'll put you in pole position.

I think you're probably right about top scorers winning the league on most occasions.

In addition to that the champions typically have a great midfield, organised defence, focus well on the important games, aren't decimated by injuries and get goals from midfield too. I'm just not comfortable with the revisionist idea that one player would've meant we didn't end the season utterly frustrated, with so many other departments left unresolved.

Make a decision FFS.

There is no way the England camp are going to want this to drag on so close to Euro kick off.......shrewd by us for once because that would have been in the back of our mind with regards to the timing of the tabling of the bid

Encouraging words from Okazaki regarding Vardy's style of play;

‘I think he has the potential to adapt to any style of soccer. At Leicester, we just happened to play the way we did and he fit fine,’ Okazaki told the Japan Times.

‘But even in a team that plays possession soccer, he has that sudden burst of speed and there are a lot of players at Arsenal who will notice that right away and play to that strength of his, like the way they did with Danny Welbeck.

‘He’s not someone who only tries to get behind the defence, though. He picks his spots.

‘Someone like me, I have to really get set up and then go but he can quicken instantly, go from zero to full speed. He can adjust to any style.’

The reason I picked those three out was because the most noticeable problem on the day was how lacklustre we appeared in our approach. A real lack of urgency despite what winning them would have meant at the time. A better striker would have helped but under Wenger it just wouldn't be enough. The squad we had should've been enough given the level of competition last season but we didn't even challenge in the end.

I don't disagree at all, what I'm saying is given the performances weren't up to scratch....we'd have benefited greatly from a better striker.

C'mon FFS

He's being such a prick tease

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

The olny reason not to have bid for him in Jan, is the fear of hamstrunging Leicester and cocking it up anyway and letting Tottenham win it.

I worry about you, first the drone and now this.

John Cross just said that Vardy is strongly considering the Leicester offer, which is also now in six figures

We got played for a better contract
