Summer Transfer Misery and Recriminations.

You and Letters are like twins.

Yes I agree mainly because footballers seem to want to play in the PL, but when we tried at Liverpool I think he knew he could do better than us so wasn't too fussed either way, a year later he was off to Barca a move no footballer turns down due to their reputation and drive to succeed.

Yes we were to blame, we tried to be clever and made ourselves look really petty in the process.

Yeah, I don't think it took a lot of convincing that he'd be able to make a move to Spain. We'd have always been a stop gap for him. But I really have no idea why he wasn't on our radar before his move to Liverpool. Same goes for Torres.

Remember, it's been played out in public by the media whose interests it serves best.

Everything we've relied on so far is based on conjecture. I'm sure the bid is real, as there is rarely this much noise around a potential transfer without some truth but nothing beyond imaginary time deadlines and percentages. There is not a lot happening in the market and won't until after the Euro's when it will go mental, so this is perfect to elongate and create clicks and meaningless stories before the tournament kicks off.

I wasn't necesarily blaming the club as it's very un-Arsenal like for it to be played out so openly. It wont be as bad as the Suarez fiasco, but we'll still be mocked if he turns us down.

Yeah you're right, that will happen if he does decide otherwise - that is if the decision hasn't already been made.

And yes, it can't be as bad the Suarez thing. That was amateurish at best.

Watford reject a £20m bid from Leicester for Deeney.

20mill for Deeney?

Crazy market. At this level of insanity we might get £50 or even more for Theo.

[Niall_Quinn]

Also sound like Leicester are in the process of making Vardy's mind up for him. They don't need Deeney if Vardy is staying, do they? Not at £20mill.

That makes me think Vardy has decided to come but it's kept quiet so Leicester can get a replacement.

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

Should have just made the Northern bastard make decision before England's first game. We may end up looking total mugs here.

This news has edged Vardy 26.8% closer to an Arsenal switch, according to my sources close to the ice-cream van outside the England team's hotel.
