Liverpool have turned it down. It also says that villa want 5m for Bent. Surely there isn't £25m plus difference between those two players?
Figures are meaningless in today's transfer dealings, no one is worth those amounts for kicking a bag of wind about and that's not including the wages they are getting. The prices being paid in the Premier League has now permeated across the footballing world, Ronaldo £80 million, Cavani £54 million and no doubt those prices will be even higher with unknown add ons that seem to be mentioned these days. Crazy isn't a big enough word to describe the situation.
Yeah but bale is something special. He is up there with messi and ronaldo. It's just funny we're bring linked with Bent for £5m and I'd rather have him than 30m Suarez.
Sure he's good - but not £60m, £70m or £80m good. Suarez, regardless of what he has done is one of the best forwards around. He's one of a few 'World Class' players in the Premier League - Yes, he's **** loads better than Darren Bent.
Arsenal would **** themselves if it was accepted - they never spend that much on one player... Fantastic player though. Too bad he's a dick.
Having paid off the majority of their loans to build The Emirates, Arsenal are once again a buying club. I expect they will do a Ruth Nicholson* this summer. *under 40's might need to google her.
I wouldn't put Suarez in the world class bracket. He's good but not world class. A lot of the time he turns one way and then another and barely looks like he has the ball under control. He dives constantly and doesn't half miss some sitters.
Don't know who Ruth Nicholson was but I would suggest they google Viv Nicholson if they want to read about spend, spend, spend.
Who? I'm 40 and don't know who she is. And if you google that name you just get facebook, linkedin and instagram profiles?
He has a career average (all competitions) of a goal every 1.72 games. He's world class, no doubt. He finished runner up in the PL scoring charts in a very average Liverpool side. For you to say he 'isn't World Class' is frankly ridiculous. Yes he's a cock, but he's still a World Class footballer.
Call my cynical but this smacks of desperation by Arsenal to appear ambitious and willing to spend. The whole reason Suarez wants to leave Liverpool is to leave England, I really dont think there is any debate on that. So why would he sign for another English club? I suspect if any team in Spain or PSG and any English team had a fee agreed then he would always chose the foreign option. Arsenal meanwhile are constantly accused of a lack of ambition and willingness to spend serious money. And how exactly did this story get out? It's not a rumour, it's confirmed. It's got Arsenal's PR team's grubby mitts all over it. It's debatable for me. Would he get in the 18 for your World Best matchday squad? I'm not saying he wouldnt, but it's debatable.
No debate about it. His career record is exceptional to date. Not to mention the assists, which have occurred whilst playing in a fairly **** team. He has carried Liverpool over the last few seasons. If he appeared for a Real Madrid/Barcelona/Bayern/ Manchester United - his goal scoring ratio and assist ratio would likely improve.
Dont quite know the point of sharing this link - you dont normally get 10 strikers in a matchday squad. And it's only someone's opinion on a website anyway, it's not FACT. I'm not saying you're wrong by the way, football always has and always will be about opinions. I'm sure lots out there agree with you that he's in, say the top 4 in the world, and equally I'm sure lots will disagree.
Within the article if you read the Suarez excerpt - it says he is probably the most desireable striker in world football. Aside from being a complete cock - he is a first class striker. Assists and Goals.
