Arsenal fans are convinced they’re going to win the league if Jamie Vardy signs

You have to hand it to Arsenal fans: it's now been 13 years since the North London club last got their hands on the Premier League trophy, but they still begin every season with an unwavering sense of optimism.

At the beginning of the campaign just gone, the campaign that eventually saw supreme underdogs Leicester City prevail, it was proclaimed by a large section of Gunners supporters that the signing of a formidable goalkeeper in Petr Cech would secure them the title. But they almost inevitably surrendered the leading position they held on New Year's Day, and Leicester never looked back. It's looking increasingly likely, though, that Jamie Vardy, the talisman of that history-making Leicester team, the relentless spearhead of their attack, will be moving to Arsenal, after the club activated the £20m release clause in his contract. Vardy is thought to be very happy at Leicester (who wouldn't be?) but at 30 years-of-age he's unlikely to reject a big money move to the capital, especially when Arsenal are in well-documented need of a 20-goal-a-season striker (Vardy contributed 24 to Leicester's title charge). Would the signing of the England and Leicester man be enough to propel the Gunners to glory next season? There are certainly some that think so, but you already knew that. https://twitter.com/joshharvey8/status/738823001966317568 https://twitter.com/roland_shaw/status/738866512543502336 https://twitter.com/dre4afc/status/739018635415564288 https://twitter.com/karlpaine/status/739094686330159105 https://twitter.com/ShaneKi97359862/status/739082232959098880 https://twitter.com/yommys01/status/738829250623594496 https://twitter.com/AFC_Freddie/status/739008176385888256
