Carlos Vela at Real Sociedad Vol. II [R]

He was in Spain and he did well. He goes to England and he sits on the bench. He comes back to Spain and he does well again. Now people want him to go back to England? Spain is where he excells.

Vela and Gio to Malaga, Sevilla, or Valencia would be fun

well when he did play in epl he would score, but then they would sit him outfor the next 3-4 games. I think Vela is more than capable to play in the epl.

He might be capable, but I think he's better suited for the Spanish league.

I dont think ppl want him to go back to England just bc. On the condition that he gets consistent playing time, he should have no problem doing exactly what he's doing but for Arsenal. Vela cant conform to staying at RS though thats for sure. The loan served its purpose, to get Mr. Candle on his groove, its time to showcase his talents at a bigger stage, stage. Valencia maybe, but not RS.

Let's hop Wenger has him in his plans as he restructure the team this summer. I think Vela would excel being first team on Arsenal.

I think Vela would be a great piece for Asenal. They seem to lack creativeness upfront. RVP is creative but it also quite wasteful. Walcott doesn't have a creative gene in his body. Neither does Chamberlain. Gervinho is too selfish from what I've seen. Arshavin, Chamakh and Park are dead weights... but it might be too little too late now. How long does he have to stay in a team that doesn't play him before he gets tired of it?

Vela's first 9 games were unproductive and it was pretty much why Real Sociedad was in relegation trouble.

Vela es mexicano, no yankee...¿por qué le importa que tan famoso sea en los eeuu? ¿Solo por plata?

Im referring to him achieving international super stardom outside of soccer followers, going to Arsenal and succeeding would be one thing, but it takes intagibles as well, something Chicharito is blessed with. His charisma has fueled his success. Suarez at Liverpool, Kun at City and even Torres at Chelsea has sprung their popularity to new levels. Like i said, the marketing machine in the English speaking world trumps all others, howver no one should misinterpret my words, Vela has played better in Spain on the basis he has been given the opportunity to play more consistently, can he do the same at Arsenal? Im one to think absolutely. Gio is the guy that like Chicharito, has fans that transcend the 'mexicano y no yankee' demographic

I'm confused here, would you rather he score goals or sell Big Macs?

Everybody knew el Kun even before heading to City. And if you didn't, you must not know very much.

Hope Vela stays in la Liga. Wouldn't mind a club like Borussia Mönchengladbach tho.

Vela had Coca Cola Zero sponsorhip before Chicharito, he also was in the WC Hugo Boss campaign and he is still sponsored by Nike... he may not be that famous, but I think he can't complain about sponsorships.

forgot the pink nike shoe ads

ZOMG OMG OMG!! we wear the same fragrance!

Re: Respuesta: Re: Carlos Vela at Real Sociedad Vol. II [R]

Funny, Zanetti wasn't at the world cup. Just like Ronaldinho wasn't in the WC either, but still showed up in the Nike ads (until they changed it to Robinho).

I knew about Kun from his Independiente days and always knew he'd be up there with Tevez and Messi for the Senior squad in short time.

Those sponsorship deals, did he get them while at Arsenal? I made reference to his Nike deal, he got it through Arsenal.

Vela ya conoce la oferta del club para lograr su fichaje

I've heard of starting low, but this is ridiculous considering he's the best player on the team.

He has a year left on his deal. Ozil was sold for 10 million or so for the same reason.

Anyone have espn insider? There's an article up about Vela:

Carlos Vela's fantastic season
http://insider.espn.go.com/sports/s...os-vela-fantastic-season-real-sociedad-el-tri

I think 8m would be enough for arsenal to let him go, but i doubt any liga team would spend that much for him. He will have a higher chance of going to a premier team

If you have insider... cut and paste
