i think vella can join his fellow young stars at the club but my advise is that the premiurship is so competitive and hence dont fear flustrations

Great site and it’s good to see the dream come true for him. He is in the birth place of the greatest football in the World. Thank you Mr. Vela for putting Mexico’s name on the map. Thank you Arsenal for having an eye and taking him on to be a future start in the greatest league in the World.

Vela has what it needs to be one of the best in world, he just need to build up his body cos premier ligue is to phisical. Come on Carlos. Guys have a look at Fran Merida, is a fantastic player as well is playing for Arsenal reserve team most of the time

World class!!!
We have been waiting for a striker who could succeed the King Henry.. From reyes until walcott..
Now, we have a name that could potentially surpass all the legends.. He is Carlos Vela.. Come on vela, do us proud..
