Real spending that kind of money is more feasible to me than us spending 70+ million on one player.

i dont think even they could spend 160 million (and thats a cheap estimate) in one summer and only make back 30 million. thats in transfer fees alone, add in wages and its even higher. just not going to happen. it will be bale or suarez. not both, and the noises in spain suggest bale not suareaz

It's not a minimum release fee clause that's for sure and if it isn't that then what's the point?

I'll ask Suarez when he's at the Emirates

Be careful he doesn't bite your arm off.

Arsene Wenger has gone back with a fresh approach for Luis Suarez, writes John Cross in Hanoi - and Arsenal are ready to test Liverpool's £40million contract clause.

It puts the Gunners firmly in pole position on Suarez, because Real Madrid have insisted they will not pay more than £25m for the striker- which will be nowhere near enough.

Liverpool have already rebuffed Arsenal's opening gambit of £30m plus £5m in add-ons with a strong message that the 26-year-old Uruguayan is not for sale at any price.

But it is understood Suarez's representatives are making encouraging noises to Arsenal, and other potential suitors, suggesting that if a bid of £40m is made then Liverpool will have to sell.

The north Londoners, who believe this will be a big week for their transfer plans, are trying to maintain dialogue with Liverpool - who are starting a Far East pre-season tour of their own - over Suarez and are hopeful a bigger offer will be accepted.

The Anfield giants remain adamant that if a £40m bid is made they do not have to sell but must inform Suarez, who is understood to now be ready to consider a move within the Premier League.

it will be one for the lawyers. i just cant see a player putting in a 40 million pound clause that just means he is told of a bid. it makes no sense to him, nor to liverpool either. hes told of bid and wants to leave, decides he wants to go the club who bid and liverpool say we want 55 million. nothing happens, just player stays and is pissed off.

Didn't they sign Ronaldo and Alonso and Kaka in the same window ?

They always seem to have the money to spend

More like Sesame Street!
