Luis Suarez thread

bit rich brendan rodgers talking about loyalty and class. HE wa making statements about how he was committed to watford two weeks before he went to reading.
And as fopr arsenal not shopwing class? they showed a bid(admittedly one that i hope never gets to wear our shirt) for a player they heard wanted to move. end of. Didnt insult anyone, put down any scousers, nick anyones stero or leave anyones car propped uip on piles of bricks

prick

I agree clubs use to have the control however players still had a say, if they didn't want to move they could turn down the move. I guess clubs can have their say now of course but players like him make it hard.

Maybe but I'd say Suarez is a prime example of what's bad in the game today, he's certainly amongst the most disloyal players and one of the biggest troublemakers. Like I said though if Liverpool took a hardline stance and he missed out on the World Cup that would be karma.

what lesson was learned? absolutely none. he came back to the team, swallowed a nominal fine that didn't touch the sides, played some games and was off a year later. and repeat.

it's all about influence and control. players could turn down a move before but most wouldn't because once you know you aren't wanted somewhere, why stick around? its the reverse for clubs now. a player makes it clear he doesn't want to be there, so a club caves in a realises its just pointless clinging on. a tottenham director said exactly the same the other day about bale.

honestly, no one cares about karma, or rights or wrongs. its about getting what they want. kick up enough of a stink and people will get rid. its a rule of life sadly.

you cant really blame the player for moving and taking the cash. He'd be stupid not to

This isn’t a clear case. If Suarez was told he could move if Liverpool fail to qualify for the Champs League, then Liverpool are in the wrong. Something was agreed otherwise there would be no need to add an ambiguous buyout clause. It’s a damn shame we’re involved in this sorry mess. If we’re going to break the bank and go through a long drawn out process for a player, I’d prefer if it was someone other than Suarez. I’d argue he has a case against Liverpool but we really shouldn’t be vouching for this guy. He’s such a shady character and I have a feeling we’re going to get burnt on this.

Don't forget Suarez did this to Groningen so he's got previous, I don't trust the guy I'd say he's in the wrong based on the past and the way he's acted.

He's not going to need to act up for us to sell someone. :lol:

He is one of the best strikers in Premier League so will finally be RVP's replacement.

I think we're going to need to either offer a shit load more money or their owners are going to need to have a big change of heart.

As it stands, John W Henry and the other cronies have said he categorically will not be sold to Arsenal, they even said it yesterday after his outburst. Rogers is standing firm with this too..judging by all the quotes I've seen in the paper.

Suarez will most likely leave...but I really don't think he's going to be coming here.
