I think Vardy has opted for a comfortable life. No disruption and 100k pw for FOUR years. 21 MILLION!!

Leics will probably lose a couple of players, Vardy will gradually lose pace and defences will be more prepared for him and Leic's tactics, but I don't think anybody expects Leics to challenge again and he is a hero to the fans and top dog in the team.

I'm v.annoyed that he said he'd wait until after the Euros and then he announces this. I wanted us to sign him but I still think he's a racist chav.

We should never have let him get on that plane still stringing us along. We made him a whacking great offer to join the Arsenal and should have given him a non-negotiable deadline of the day before he flew.

If he was serious and was ever going to join, three days or whatever was plenty of time to mull it over and he would have signed.

He's made a complete fucking laughing stock of us.



And yet we had some people on here preaching about patience and waiting until the euro's were over before panicing..........we are supposed to be ok with waiting for possibly 5 weeks for vardy to decide if he wants to join us ? F.ucking f.uck off :evil: :evil: Our club should be above being treated this way and if we had anyone bar this gormless w*nker running our club, then maybe we would be treated with more respect.
This delay for a decision suits wenker and no-one else :evil:

said a couple of pages back that as soon as he started this bollocks to pull the pin and go find someone else. The fact that the club has let this little wanker pull them along just shows how far we have fallen imo. :evil: :evil:

He chose to stay at a club - the league champions - where he's already familiar with the surroundings and will get almost the same money. Kante will leave, probably Mahrez too, and the chances of Leicester winning the league again are minimal, same as Arsenal.

I think Vardy's made the right choice for him, but can't say I feel 'embarrassed' that he's stayed at a smaller club over joining us, there's plenty of other considerations. Maybe his missus doesn't like London.

More annoying will be if (when) Mikhtaryan signs for Mourinho over us, then i'll join you all in the angry corner.
Agreed. There could be a million reasons he wanted to stay at Leicester. I'm not sure what else we could have done, the fee was agreed and a decent contract was offered to him. Letting it drag on was a bit embarrassing but it was obviously a big decision for the little chav.
I won't be losing any sleep over him not joining...I will however lose my shit when the inevitable no more signings is followed up with the usual bullshit spin about nobody being available.

I'm not particularly bothered about us not attracting him from Leicester. I mean I am annoyed that we aren't winning trophies and an irresistible option, but I don't for a minute think we should have offered him more money. There are plenty of reasons he would stay and it's not in my mind a huge shock that he did.

letting him get on that plane stringing us along after all the details were out in the public domain was an embarrassment though. The moment he didn't give us an answer it was clear that he wouldn't be coming, yet we have allowed him to keep us on the hook for weeks. The footballing community is laughing at us.

Even the spuds fan took the piss this mornng ! Easily put her back in her box !!!!! :barscarf:

It is embarrassing but then again we were after Jagielka for years and he wouldnt leave Everton. Vardy has done the right thing and will always be a Leicester legend

Rumours about Lukaku now, ffs hope this isn't true, would have preferred steptoe.

No fucking idea why he's so highly rated, averages 1 good game in 3 and is a big lumbering oaf, and we already have one of those.

Can you imagine if we hadn't signed Xhaka so early? Meltdown.
