I know the Suarez issue has been done to death recently but it seem everytime I check Sky Sports their is another story about him wanting out. Now I know most fans have accepted that Suarez will leave at some stage and a lot of us even think it could be for the good of the club if he does go for good money but what realistically is the best transfer fee we can get for Suarez? I admit his past antics have driven his valuation down a bit but he is easily one of the top ten players in the world if not higher. Personally I think we should accept nothing less than £50M cash or cash plus player to add up to our valuation. To me it seems like Cavani and Bale are Real Madrid first choice so I doubt even Real Madrid could afford all 3 so I am not sure who else outside of premiership could meet our valuation. PSG and Monaco probably could but not sure Suarez would go to France.
I don't understand why his value will have dropped so much that people claim we should be happy with 30-35mill. So many top players in the past have had issues and controversy surrounding them. I'm not saying we should keep him (although I'd be very happy to see him here still next season tbh) but we certainly have no reason to sell him at anything lower than 50. He's a genuine top class player. If he wants to go, we sell high. If no one offers it, he stays and plays.
Feck him. Starting to piss me off with how he's going about it. Get all our targets in and tell him it's 50 million or he's in our shirt next year. If he wants to yap at someone, yap at Madrid to show us the money.
Agreed with everyone else saying no less than £50m. A world class player is still world class despite his previous behaviour
How is he going about it though, frank? I've stopped reading about it tbh, but isn't it just a constant reheating of the same old leftovers dressed up to look like something new?
Yeah, it seems that way. It's just that it looks as though he keeps repeating it and that tends to increase the fans' hostility, when it's probably just the same statements being rehashed continuously by the press, .
The obsession with the cost (price) of the player is misplaced as far Liverpool is concerned. It is the replacement who matters. What happened with Torres is like United selling Ronaldo for 80m and replacing him with Djemba Djemba for £55m You need to do a player for player deal..money for Liverpool will just be squandered.
get your point sm1thy but firstly we will have to convince the player to come ie no European football(seems to be big issue for most players now days) will they want to be part of a deal? also i think the more we can get then the better we can get replacements in ie this myri player etc, although that's supposed to be separate from the sale of Luis, so who knows, also help with costs for wages for other players ie Honda etc. wouldn't surprise me if everyone we are linked with we don't fecking get, although some that might be a good thing lol. be nice if we actually strengthened to what we have already, but i cant remember the last time that happened, always seems to be lose key players and all we are actually doing is replacing them not strengthening the squad so to speak.
No mate; he's continued his passive aggressive whining to the Spanish press ahead of the game today in direct interviews. As usual he starts with how much he loves playing with us and has a contract with us but ends with the "I've suffered" and "its too difficult to play in England with the mean old press" crap. Oh and the Real Madrid is top of any players dreams crap again. Don't get me wrong Saint: they're loaded questions, designed to get the answers wanted but he is clearly batting his eyelids like a cheap whore. As I stated before his comments should begin & end with "I'm a Liverpool player: it's disrespectful of me to talk about other clubs unless Liverpool want me to" I mean its not burning his bridges with Real to say that is it? His repetition of the same crap, every chance he can get (thats four separate interviews to tv, radio & written press) I've seen that yes, are then rehashed & exaggerated on & on by our press) it still makes his intentions clear. And it's a snivelling cowardly approach in my opinion. He whined once fair enough: the club have then said, you're not for sale so he should shut up now.
