I would not go for Sanchez, for the simple fact that he rejected us and went to Arsenal.
Meh.

Convince him to ditch his girlfriend. Problem solved <laugh>

Having class players helps attract better quality.

Although I doubt we will go for these types anyway, and probably spend big on up and coming players so owners can sell on for profit in a few years time:emoticon-0172-mooni:emoticon-0173-middl

I understand the sentiment but I want the team to have the best possible chance to be successful, even if that includes players who jilted us in the past.

As long as the price is right, the player is right, and the player legitimately wants to join now.

Let's be honest, no top four and we'd be lucky to sign Hugo Sanchez!
 
Arsene Wenger reveals Luis Suarez 'agreement' with Arsenal in 2013
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger says there was an "agreement" in place to sign Luis Suarez in 2013.

It was reported that the Gunners tried to sign Suarez by bidding £1 over his £40,000,000 release clause.

Liverpool owner John Henry later revealed that Suarez did indeed have a £40m release clause, but the club opted not to sell the striker.
And Wenger has suggested Suarez almost joined the Gunners
He told beINSports: "He was very close [to signing for Arsenal]. We had an agreement with the player. We had been wrongly advised that he had a clause, with a minimal clause, but we had an agreement with the player. You can ask him.
"I'm convinced he wanted to join us, then they kept him one more year, improved his contract and promised to sell him the year later to a club abroad."

Suarez stayed with Liverpool for another season before joining Barcelona in a deal worth £75m.
Does anyone really believe Suarez wanted the move to Arsenal?
I reckon that whole saga was to alert Barca and Real to the fact he wanted a move.
The owners were smart in giving him the rise with a bigger clause.
Got one more year out of him and a bigger fee and he got his dream move.

This is Wenger trying to deflect from the current ****storm he's in charge of!

Yes, Suarez said he wanted to go to Arsenal,but Liverpool said they are not going to sell to rival.

I agree. He wanted to go to real that summer. It didnt matter where. Imo he deliberately bit ivanovic that time to force a move cos we were out of top 4.
 
Sanchez has a year left on his contract and is 28. Can't see them getting much more than £40m for him.

Hazard is by far the better player in my opinion, and is younger with potential to develop still.
I'd take Sanchez over Hazard every time........why?............because Sanchez isn't a happy bunny at Arsenal but will still put a shift in
regardless. Hazard takes half a season off when it suits his agenda.
 
I kind of agree.

Hazard doesnt strike me as a guy who will improve more.

Sanchez just suits the prem in work rate. Wenger has knackered him and also just pissed him round.

He would fit klopp like an arse on a bucket

Say that but giroud has more sprints covered more distance per 90 mins than him this year.
 
Arsenal would have won the league easily with him. No doubt about it in my mind. I'm glad we didn't sell him to them!!

Nah, they have Sanchez (not Suarez but still a very good (top10) player) and are 6th.

They don't have the mentality/bottle or the defensive abilty without the ball to have won it.

Christ, I woudn't fancy em with Messi and Ronaldo in the team TBH.
 
FSG will give Klopp the largest transfer kitty in the club’s history this summer. [HASHTAG]#lfc[/HASHTAG] (Paul Joyce)
