If he's very good we'll almost sign him.

Tick tock, another day passing and not a twitch from Wenger and the Rape Squad.
Rape Squad?
Hmmm. Outgrown cunts now it is unbanned? Shocking.
Also, Durham and the Daily Arsenal is on soon. :rose:
Much preferred cunt when it was ****, tbh.
Sounded and looked much more expressive in the banned format.
his hatred of us is quite obsessional.....he does seem to be quite unwell
Listened to his show once and it just wound me up.
Never again.
I believe it was Charlie who always listened to Durhams show.
I've listened to it a few times. Never take it seriously
miquel has gone out on loan as well as yennaris.
we've done a fine job of getting players out, but given the amount we have shipped out there surely surely has to be signings coming in. not just one or two either but more like 3-5. we cnat ship this many players out and not replace them
Another mad trolley dash for some pub teamers to bulk up the numbers probably. Pub teamers who will also be moved on within 2 seasons.
28 players have left the club this summer, doenst include loanees.
operation get rid of the dead wood has been a huge success i think.
operation bring in top quality players hasn't
They have always said it was the plan to trim the wage bill. Trim everything except the ticket prices - in fact put those up FFS!
Yes it's good to clean the dead wood, but shouldn't somebody now take responsibility for collecting it in the first place? And why is that somebody still allowed to go hunting around the bins for similar crap?
Talksport is just a bunch of adverts with the odd shit talk in the gaps, from what I'm hearing. Listening is like having teeth drilled.
Nope, turned that shit off. Unlistenable.
Which is why I don't get why we haven't bid their asking price to (hopefully) move things on. I know there's no rush to sign him because of his ban but we know there is no likely alternative should we miss out, so there's the worry.
I don't think bidding £50m changes much tbh. I'm sure Suarez has made it clear he wants to leave and the next step is to hand in a transfer request. We'll maybe up the bid after he hands in transfer request. No point doing it now if Liverpool are still adamant he's staying.
Also worth noting that one of the richest clubs in the world has only bid £30m for Rooney who's just one year older than Suarez and similar ability when on form. He also plays for the Champions. £40m is a very fair offer for Liverpool.
Suarez's overall ability outstrips Rooney's, Rooney got changed from the explosive player he was before to a bit of a machine and not neccesarily for the better.
I think it does change a lot, for one it would equal their record sale, it's probably a lot closer to what they would ideally look for (and suggested in the media, not even from the favourable Arsenal side) that is something they would accept and again it affirms to Suarez our desire to buy him.
It's possible we could get him anyway if we sit tight but I really don't like it.
Fair enough, lets see what happens.
I think you're forgetting how good Rooney was before RVP arrived. You've also got the price premium for moneybags Chelsea buying one of the Premier leagues icons from the mighty Man Utd. If they get Rooney for anywhere near £30m then they've got off lightly.
I'm not forgetting, however Rooney scored about one goal from outside the box out of a silly amount of goals for Man Utd (might have been broken with the CL goal against Chelsea). In terms of pure ability Suarez is better than Rooney now, plus he isn't a smoker and a drinker (I think), Wazza has a ton of injuries these days which Suarez does not and he also doesn't look like Shrek.
Also, to the above, well the £30 million was rejected, so I don't think it's really relevant.
You guys were talking about testing the water with that £1 bid. test the water again with, say, £45m. It acknowledges you've taken at least some notice of the asking price we both know we're not going to get and removes a little bit of doubt that you're serious about getting him. We might not accept it straight off, but we probably won't laugh it off either.
Call our bluff and most importantly, call Suarez's.
I reckon we'd get Wazza for £40m
Threat of FFP means most clubs start lower, he wants to leave, he's older. All of those things he's not going to go for the same amount.
Rooney is not going to get the chance to show he should be of that level at Man Utd again with RVP there. All those things affect that value, plus Suarez is probably deemed indispensable to Liverpool, which might not be the case for Man Utd anymore.
In any case, as I said, the bid was rejected so Man Utd obviously still rate him higher but I wouldn't take him over Suarez. Obviously would take him over what else we have though.
