you say we have ended up with above average players for last 8 years, and now when the club is finally ready to go big for that genuine world class player you are still moaning and want them to go for other targets. you cant moan as you repeatly have done over last few years about not going for the big players, then moan when we do.Quote:

Find out what the real valuation for Suarez is.. put an offer thats 5 million less than that and negotiate and not act like a cheap f*ck. If we are really serious about him, pay him the money and move on.Quote:

It's certainly a high risk strategy for us to be going for Suarez. We effectively gave up on the Higuain deal to get Suarez. If we can't get him then who do we then go for who is substantially better than Giroud?
If we do get Suarez then it's a massive coup and the risk would have obviously been worthwhile.
I personally think, as do others on here, that we wont sign a striker if we can't get Suarez. Instead we'll buy better midfielders.
How much do you think Suarez is worth? £40m sounds fair to me.Quote:

we cant on one hand berate the club for not spending then have a go at them for spending on arguably the best striker in the league (or at least top 3 strikers)
i know people will say we need more than one world class player because we had RVP and won fuck all but we didnt have cazorla, giroud and podolski then.
now we do they've added huge quality to our team, and more importantly, depth. if we sign suarez we effectively have giroud coming off the bench who is a great back up. back then we had chamakh. thats the difference.
our squad is in a better position as we have trimmed down the shite and released them all, we just need to add quality.
suarez wont be here for long but he'll definetly score goals. if we sign him for £45m we can sell him for at least £55m 2-3 years later, having hopefully won a trophy or two. id take that. thats the way football is now im afraid, players rarely stay for long so lets go with the trend for once and get this bastard in.

So either we be prepared to put that money on the table or move on to other avenues. We are already late in terms of getting our squad together.. this dilly dallying is only making things worse!Quote:
