Luis Suarez thread

Or he hopes we don't sign a player who is clearly a mercenary with no end to what he will do to facilitate a move to a new club.

Or

"Footballers"

(Although, Gervinho managed to stretch that, tbf)

if you dont want to sign a mercenary, then we might as well not sign anyone. all players are mercenaires these days. might as well as accept it

Apart from the first GW meet of the season!

you will all be fully fledged memebers of the arsenal/wenger can do no wrong group by the end of it :D

Matt le Tissier wasn't a mercenary.

He was shit though.

I don't think we'll be able to tempt him into drugs. It was enough of a struggle getting him to sip on a Southern Comfort and Lemonade, made for women and children.

most players are merccenaries. If they couldnt play football they'd be mugging your gran and stealing cars.
most of those are however smart enough not to shit on their own doorstep.

I wouldnt bet 300% of the club's record transfer fee on Suarez being one of those, I think its a crap deal for arsenal. thats all

He'd like Archers and lemonade, I reckon.

OR a bacardi breezer.

But that could change if:

1) Liverpool agree to sell a player they don't want to sell;
2) Suarez and his lawyers are better than Liverpool and their lawyers;
3) Arsenal are prepared to triple their transfer record;
4) No other club gets interested;
5) Everything (including lawyers fucking around) can happen before the window closes.

What could go wrong?

Have we missed anything that could make this more difficult and unrealistic? I might head off to a Rolls Royce showroom today and spend some time winding up the salesmen. If I can time it just right my neighbours will see me in there and make all sorts of assumptions.

I remember you said, brutally but accurately describing players from a club's perspective as 'livestock'. Why the concern for the makeup of their characters now?

yes and I stand by that.

Would you rather have good quality livestock at a price that makes sense or bet the ranch on an extremely tempremental thoroughbred - especially one that bites and cost more than you can afford, and (and this, sadly, is where we have to let the analogy go) is a fucking racist cunt who also has form for kicking off and forcing a move every two years?

crap business plan right there

When proper clubs come calling, wenger struggles to hold onto 'worldies' that supposedly regard him as a father figure and say they owe it all to him (henry, cesc, vieira, even adebayor/song/nasri/hleb - or so we thought at the time, bit shit now). ANd if suarez comes and performs wenger will be able to man manage him how exactly?
