Luis Suarez thread

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

How much do you think Suarez is worth? £40m sounds fair to me.

we'll get him for £45m

they want 50

we've offered 40

45 and he's ours.

they'll definitely sell. they wont keep a toxic player in their team. they'd rather just sell up and spend the money on 2-3 players before the season starts otherwise it fucks them up for next season. and if madrid are going for bale, we are the only team in for him. unless chelsea decide they want him.

must admit, it feels good to be the club not having to worry about players leaving for once.

and here's the video of him against melbourne yesterday circulating twitter regarding his body language. absolutely foul body language. like someone's killed his cat.

he's gone

suarez's people clearly believe that he has release clause of 40 million, why would we go higher then that without trying out this supposed release clause. and im not sure you can really call arsenal penny pinchers when we've bid 40 million pounds. doesnt really make sense that.

you've been one of wengers harshest critics on here, along with zimm, for not spending, for taking gambles yet the one year he is ready to spend big on one player like we have all wanted, he is still in the wrong. i just dont get it

It's common knowledge that it is not his release clause but the clause to just 'talk' to Suarez. Liverpool DO NOT need to accept it. Personally I do not think Suarez is worth more than 30 million quid but we know that if we really want the player, we will have to be close to what Liverpool will be tempted to sell. 40 million quid is nowhere near that unfortunately. So what do we do now? Hope that Suarez forces his way through all the while wasting precious time to assemble a half decent squad? Or move onto other avenues?
Its like I need a car really badly and I bid 1 million for a ferrari that the owner values at 2 million. I need a car badly.. why not move on to getting a mercedes or Audi in the meanwhile. We are half way through the window and have got nothing to show for this.

Again, like Zimm said, bidding is one thing and actually putting the money is another. I can bid 35 million quid for Suarez but I am not paying it. Like him, I do think its a smoke screen from the board and Wenger to show that 'we tried but we failed... we believe we have strong squad to challenge for top honors... I do wish you are right though. This is something I have probably said to you over the last 3-4 seasons. I WANT you to be right! We both support Arsenal but I do not trust the board or their henchman Wenger to do anything about improving the squad! Actions speak louder than words.. and there has been very little action in the last 7-8 seasons for me to be optimistic.

It's jet lag!

But yeah, there aren't much options on the table. Also, he's Prem proven. There aren't that many world class strikers that are Prem proven right now. We go looking abroad and it could be hit or miss.

The one time you actually want a Spanish giant to blunder their way through and tap up your star player and they go for a chimp instead.

given that suarez's people are convinced its a release clause, id say it isnt common knowledge that it isnt one.

this is arsenal, whos transfer record is 16 million. bidding 40 million for a player is not a "we tried " bid, its a serious bid. we're talking to suarez too i assume given thats the other option for this clause.

i dont think suarez is worth more 30 million eitehr given his baggage, but its what he will cost, we need a world class striker, lets stop moaning about bidding for him, given we have spent years moaning we never bid for teh big players.

That video



He still looked good tbh

[Grebbo]

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.

What are you smoking?? At least £55m?? He'll be 29/30yrs old, unless he produces Messi/Ronaldo scoring form then he won't be worth £55m in 2/3 years time.

bottom line is he's gone. they know, we know, he knows.

you cannot keep a player against his will in this day and age, and liverpool know the longer this goes on the less chance they have of replacing him which messes up their season.

if they keep him until the end of the window then sell, it'll affect their league position next year and the kop will go ape shit if they dont make a real push for top 4 having seen all the teams around them spend big. rodgers hardly needs more pressure right now.

all this 'he's staying' talk is bollocks, they just want madrid to come in to start a bidding war. but im hoping they go for ape

im actually quite optimistic about this which means we wont sign him
