There's many a good meal in this thread - it should be made sticky so all the experts can tuck into the pie this time next year.

Not bad for £3m, but I hope we sign another forward too if we do bring him back. He's probably better suited to playing at wide right rather than as a CF anyway.
Does he count as 'homegrown'? would be happy to see him back…can take a place of 4th striker.

He's coming home.
As I said in the transfer thread, I'm still not 100% convinced that this isn't just some kind of negotiating tactic for something else yet, but if it is true then I'd be happy enough to give him another try - he looks like he's improved no end as a player, and you have to say that 21 goals and 13 assists (in all competitions) are big boy stats. To put that into perspective, I think Benzema got 26 goals and 13 assists last season, Alexis Sanchez got 21 goals and 14 assists, Pedro got 19 goals and 8 assists, Di Maria got 12 and 24, and Isco got 11 and 7, so he's holding his own with some pretty strong company (and doing it in a weaker side)...
Considering the fact that Diego Costa has had many unsuccessful loan spells and was under Falcao shadow at Atletico Madrid before he became good just last season , resigning an improved Carlos Vela can be a good thing for Arsenal . He has matured a lot and his confidence has dramatically improved too and will need no time for adaptation .
With Carlos in the bag , one more striker in the mould of Benzema or Balotelli or Morata or Jackson Martinez or even Wilfred Bony would be enough to complete the package with Giroud and Sanogo who are expected to be better next season .
DO NOT POSTPONE TODAY'S DUTY FOR TOMORROW .IT MAY BE TOO LATE .
Vela? I think on a scale of 1 to 10 in terms of being uninspiring, he's a sure fire 10. Fine, sign him up. But let's not let this interfere with proper transfer business in any way.
