Warchest. :bow:
I think we should wait another five years on Alonso, he's not clapped out yet. And this will kill Barry.Quote:

In many ways the Barry signing would be perfect:
1) Cheap
2) Has been nobody else wants
3) Can play in different positions (defence and midfield), thus saving us more money on signings for other positions in future
4) Won't hinder progress of any kids
5) Would be a way of p*ssing off the fans and sticking two fingers up at them
And Cripps fancies him.Quote:

If they blow the whole budget on Suarez they need shooting. One striker who's likely to be suspended half the season will be like going back to the bad old days of RvP. Great when he's available, stuck with Giroud when he's not. In fact even if they have £70mill to spend it's a drop in the bucket in terms of the overhaul this team needs.
Luckily then they aren't getting Suarez. Unluckily (for us) they may be getting nobody at all. So I suppose nothing can happen anyway until this Asian tour is over, unless Wenger isn't going to be involved.
I don't really see the point in going after Suarez, no way will he join us. It's just a waste of time.
Surely the board wont turn round and say, after a summer of signing nobody of note, "We tried to sign Higuain, Suarez, Rooney etc, you can't blame us for not trying". Surely they don't think the fans are that stupid to buy the bullshit??
It's a non-story. We're obviously not going to pay what Liverpool will want so there's no point even considering it. The papers are as bad as ever this summer. With social media (blogs, twitter etc.) getting so many hits, it's impacting the press - their usual bending-the-truth ways are not as interesting to the ****s that buy them, because they're more interested in fantasy stories. So in order to compete, the press have also increased their bullshit/truth ratio. As Maccy said, we'll probably be linked to a Madrid CM tomorrow just because they've bought that Sociedad kid.
