All your points bar the last one are so unconvincing, sorry. The price, yes, a valid point but Aubemayang is a far better player hence is more expensive. You could easily make counter-arguments which to me would be far more convincing, ie:
1. Age. By the time Vardy settles with us if he moves, he is 30. The speed he relies on will be diminishing fast (pun intended). Aubemayang is younger and therefore better value despite the price.
2. Skills. There is more to Aubemayang’s game than speed, he is an overall far better player.
3. Personality. Vardy does not endear himself with his attitude problems, racism etc.
4. Re-sale value. Once Vardy’s legs go he is worth peanuts. Can’t see Auba’s value diminishing anytime soon.
5. Good looks. Although neither would win any beauty pageant, Auba would look far better next to Ollie than Vardy’s ratty face. Just kidding.

Batshuayi, Lacazette, even Janssen. All below 50 million. Griezmann is sadly unlikely unless Simeone comes to Arsenal after retirement. I don’t think Auba will thrive in England, he would in Spain though. I also think Vardy is overrated.

WHO EVER WROTE THIS SHOULD GO TO SPEC SAVERS. HOW THE HELL CAN YOU COMPARE VARDY TO AUBAMEYANG? I AM SICK OF SEEING VARDYS PICTURES & SICK OF READING ABOUT HIM HOW CAN PEOPLE STILL WANT HIM AT ARSENAL? WE DO NOT NEED HIM, WHAT WE NEED IS A STRIKER THAT WANTS TO PLAY FOR ARSENAL,WHY ARE WE NOT TRYING TO SIGN MICHY BATSHUAYI BE FORE CHELSEA OR VINCENTJANSSEN BE FORE SPURS. DO NOT WAIT FOR VARDY HE IS DEFENITLY GOING BACK TO LEICESTER WASTE OF SPACE WHO THE HELL DOE,S HE THINK HE IS?.

What has being English got to do with his ability as a football ?
Vardy is an ageing one season wonder with no experience outside of the Premiership.
I would take Aubameyang every day…
