Given we could speak to him from January, it's not unreasonable to move quickly. It could have been a dome deal by February, we just didn't announce until window opened. But anyway I don't know why they are dragging their heals .

The thing with Suarez deal though is that there is no time pressure, he can't play until October so we don't need him by August 17th. But we sold van Persie only three days before new season, don't think these deals are quick unless you are city etc who just throw money, if you don't have to negotiate its a lot quicker
