good catch for them.
They will get the goals they need. He is not injury prone either.

It's a bit of a strange one but it could work out for them.
Surely this means Welbeck out...
Would Welbeck be content with a spot on the bench??.

Will add title winning experience and title winning mentality to that Arsenal Squad. They'll now have 2 players in Cech and Vardy who have both had starring roles in PL title winning teams. A bit of bottle at both ends of the pitch can only be a good thing for the perennial chokers.
right now hes got a firm spot on the treatment table for the next 9 months
He doesnt really suit their tippy tappy patient approach play does he?
They just need a PL winner in the center of their team now, how about Steven Gerr....oh wait.
Wenger is not stupid
If he does buy Vardy, then he'll ensure their style changes to suit him.

He is rarely a bench option for Arsenal when fit. He is multifunctional, so Welbeck could play out wide or become Arsenal 'Okazaki,' next to Vardy. As one other poster mentioned, he is out until 2017, so we will have to wait and see what happens when he is back.
On Vardy signing, I think this signing might be a good short term signing for them. Vardy had a great season and his energy upfront and finishing ability will be an asset for them. A combination of either or one of Giroud, Welbeck and Vardy gives Wenger different style to play with in the attack.
Gonna be some chav brigade with Wilshit.
Shades of RVP with this transfer, Wenger might only have another year left.
In age and fee maybe, but you can't compare VP and Vardy in quality terms
There's some transfers you feel a little worried at, like Sanchez going to Arsenal, or even Ozil.
Then there's others you think, really?
Because they recognise that they've absolutely maximised what they can achieve at Leicester, and can cash in to outrageous extents by leaving?
Yeah he's not at the same level but he's got a much better supporting cast at Arsenal than RVP had here. In fairness to Wenger there's not too many young up and coming strikers so if he can get 2+ good years from Vardy it'll be money well spent considering the revenue clubs have available now.
Exactly. Vardy should only ever be squad material at a team of Arsenal's level.
Will be interesting to see what Wenger's thinking. Competition for Giroud, with Welbeck out for so long most likely, rather than an outright first choice.
Things just got very interesting. He's the real deal. They're a soft team with a grafter now (Sanchez also).
We gotta get Kante now. Imperative.

Be afraid, be very afraid. All those chances, all that Vardy, oh my!
Might Vardy be a one season wonder?
Might Wenger facing possibly his last season in a last gasp sign of desperation think Vardy might do the trick for him?
Managers can make strange decisions when in decline.

Such a weird transfer.
I'm surprised Vardy wants to move.
I'm surprised Vardy wants to move.
Why?
Arsenal are a bigger club. What Leicester did will not be repeated again.
It's a great move for him personally.
I think so, can't see him replicate his season. Time will tell though.
They'll have great banta.
He is going to look pretty weird in all those topless photos the Arsenal squad love so much.
This is Arsenal, he will be injured for six months out of the next eighteen and I don't see their medical staff helping him with the bunions on his face. Arsenal are a bunch of arseholes and now to my delight they have a little cnut. I doubt Wenger will have them finishing in the top four this season.
Wenger changing his style? Don't see it happening personally. Especially to suit one player.
I can't make up my mind whether this is a good transfer or not? Doesn't seem like a Arsenal kind of player.
Perfect situation for him at Leicester. They're in the CL. Leceister's system is great for him. Just seems an odd move for me.
Out of their players, I thought Vardy was the least likeliest to move.
Maybe Vardy is leaving due to being told that the Leicester team are being sold off and this is too good to pass up?
If I were Vardy I would
A) lift weights ffs.
B) go abroad.
He would be perfect for Atletico. With such a small clause they surely wouldn't turn him down.

You think he'd leave Leicester now to be a squad player? That'd be mad.
I agree.

Its Arsenal, though, isn't it? No need to worry.
Hopefully the Ricardo Rodriguez rumors are true too... So is anyone keen on Gibbs?
What about centre back?
We definitely need an upgrade there. Only name I've heard linked is Koulibaly but I think the Napoli prez has nixed that.
Spoke to a few of my Arsenal mates today, and understandably, they're not too keen on Vardy, and would rather spend the money elsewhere.
How much is the exact sum? I've heard figures from 20 - 35 million.

The problem with this signing is that if it doesn't work & Wenger leaves then the new manager would have 30 yr old Vardy plus Giroud so it's a massive gamble.
