It's simple really, the rewards are greater but it's true, the risks are greater too. You have to take those risks if we're ever to reach a higher level, in this league.
In any case, it wouldn't be £50 million up front, these kinds of deals never are.
As an alternative, I could live with Rooney but I think, he hasn't really indicated any kind of interest in joining us, whereas Suarez has (regardless of his intentions). And Man Utd, selling us a player of quality? I know Moyes is new to the job but he's not going to do something like that.
