Now whatever would give you that idea mate?

Perhaps the fact that I've already cleaned out his locker and packed the little halfwit's suitcase (12 rollneck sweaters and pairs of gloves), contacted the estate agent to put his house on the market, paid for the one way flight ticket and offered to personally drive him to the airport.

Actually it will be a very sad day when he leaves. Who else will light up the last 5 minutes of a Beer Cup game by dinking the ball over the keeper for the meaningless 5th goal against Rochdale next season?

If he could persuade the Polish clown to go with him he'd go up even further in my estimation

As for IHH even daring to mention his very name in the same breath as the Imperious Abou>>>>>>>>

SteveO, although we're in general agreement about the prestigious talents of 'The Imperious One', if it's fair to only pass judgement on Diaby when he's had 15-20 games in his favourite position, then surely that criteria should also apply to Vela? How many times did he get a run in the side playing in his best position? Yet just like our hero, despite showing glimpses of his undoubted ability, neither the same sort of excuses are made nor similar slack seems to have been given to him.

I just happen to believe that, much like Abou, he wasn't helped by the lack of games and in his best position. I genuinely believe that Vela is a very talented player that wasn't given the opportunity to show his ability to it's fullest. Now perhaps he lacked the 'mental toughness' that players need just to even compete in the PL, but I still think the Mexican wasn't given a proper chance at Arsenal and slagging him off for scoring the kind of goals most of our current players could only dream off doesn't seem fair to me.

Perhaps it was the total over reaction of the Emirates crowd when he scored the goal against Sheffield United that started it, but I found people going ga-ga over the bloke on the back of the odd bit of showboating in low key games. All this "he's better than Cantona" bollocks after 3 Beer Cup games....ok,ok it was sung tongue in cheek slightly I know, but you'd have thought we'd seen the new Messi the way people raved about him. To me he is the equivalent of cricket's 'flat track bully' - loves ripping into the makeweights at on his own pitch, but when you need the guy to come up strong away from home he is shown up for the showpony that he is. When I went up to Stoke in the FA Cup, I thought to myself 'come on then Carlos, stake your claim' and he minced around like the lightweight that he is.

Perhaps in fairness he should have been given more time and it is all about opinions but for me he was always overhyped for achievements in Carling Cup games. When he drags us back into an important CL game or bosses the play in an important PL game in the way that the Great Abou does, maybe then I will consider him more worthy.
