Your so called big club finished 10 points behind our so called small club. In the last 47 games we've lost four and picked up 103 points, Arsenal lost eight and picked up 86. We scored 90, Arsenal scored 81. I'll just leave that with you
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That far ahead and you still cant beat us
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately for you the season is 38 games not two. Had to laugh at your players celebrating the win against 10 men at the Emirates like they'd won the league, though beating little old Leicester obviously meant a lot to them

People are unironically making the point that Vardy sees Arsenal as a step down.
Where's people's sense of perspective?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They're just wums
As a Leicester fan I don't see him rejecting Arsenal as him thinking they're a step down, he just suits the way we play, is happy at the club and he doesn't want to leave because he knows our team spirit is the best he'll ever find.
Not really a big deal. Probably would have been played out of position, picked up injuries and had once good season with us at best. Seemed a bit of a desperate bid from wenger in the first place.
Good that he's staying at Leicester. Sensible decision.
I wouldn't be surprised if playing has helped him make his mind up. He's done well, and i'm not for a second saying he couldn't make the grade at Arsenal but it might have made him realize just how perfect the way Leicester play and their set up is for him. He can get a decent pay rise, continue in his good form playing a style of football that makes helps him look like the player he has been this season.
It's not that Vardy sees Arsenal as a step down, it's probably more that it's not enough of a step up for him to sacrifice his fans favourite status, guaranteed starting place etc. at Leicester to join Arsenal. It reminds me of the whole Suarez thing. Yes, he could have taken the step up to join Arsenal from Liverpool but instead he waited a year and took a bigger step up from Liverpool to Barcelona. Jamie Vardy will never play for Barcelona of course, but he could be waiting for one of the Manchester clubs.

Absolute nonsense
Azpilicueta would be great but how often do Chelsea players (mata aside) come to United

Not when you are 30 years old.
Thank feck for that. Let' go for Deeney now!
I always thought Vardy would be mad to join Arsenal!
Are they going to win the EPL any time soon?
While I'm very happy we're not signing Vardy I don't understand how people can say "he wouldn't suit our style".
What style is this?
Languid, no pace, no penitration because we have a statue up front?
If Vardy could maintain his excellent form from last season in an Arsenal shirt he would be perfect for Arsenal.
The problem with Vardy is that he'd had one top season during his whole career and he's 29. No way should Arsenal put all their eggs in a basket like that, certainly not when they have more than enough cash in reserve to buy a striker who's been consistently playing at a high level.
