We wouldn't have signed Ozil, Sanchez, Cech or Xhaka if we weren't a draw.
Players will go anywhere if you wave enough money and convince them you have ambition, shouldn't be hard for us to do that, we did just finish 2nd and we have the money to compete.
I do understand Vardy's dilemma though, we are obviously a bigger club than Leicester and if he believes he could help us win the league and that Leicester won't repeat their heroics, which seems unlikely, then a move to us would be attractive. On the other hand they must have a great team spirit at Leicester and he does owe them, having plucked him from obscurity. He has the chance to be a real legend at the club.
I reckon he'll stay, but not because we're not a draw. If that was the case he'd have made his decision by now.
Was in my second year of Uni when we last won the title, was home during Easter break for the game at WHL. Watched the game in the 12 pins, earlier in the day Newcastle beat Chelsea which meant we only needed a draw for the title.
Since then graduated from Uni, moved home to Essex, string of jobs in London and now live and work in Chelmsford
If he's digging his heels in the hope of another club coming in for him we should just move on to someone else.
That's your opinion, and I'm inclined to agree - it'll be a real dogfight for the top 4 next year, let alone the title.
But if his opinion is his goals can help us win the title next year - and IMO they would have done last year - then it will be a tempting move for him.
It doesn't matter what you or I think, just what he thinks. If Wenger convinces him he's going to finally show some ambition and push hard for the title next year then it may sway him.
According to Arseblog it's over the fact that we've offered him a three year contract and Leicester City have offered a four year one.
