    Martin Charquero, the person who reported the transfers of Coates and Cavani, says Suarez is close to joining Arsenal.

  6. As many of us have said, unless they paid £60m+ there would be uproar if that were to happen.

  8. Liverpool insist Luis Suarez will be unable to force through transfer

    Luis Suárez will return to action for Liverpool in Melbourne on Wednesday after Brendan Rodgers warned the unsettled forward that the club is too big to be controlled by any player.

    Having repeatedly stated in recent weeks his determination to leave Anfield this summer, Suárez arrived in Australia on Sunday to link up with Rodgers&#8217; squad ahead of Wednesday&#8217;s friendly against Melbourne Victory in front of a 100,000 sell-out at the MCG.

    The 26-year-old, who trained alongside his team-mates for the first time since going public on his intentions with an hour-long session at Melbourne&#8217;s AAMI Stadium on Monday, was the subject of a £30 million offer from Arsenal earlier this month - a bid which was rejected by Liverpool.

    Arsenal retain a serious interest in signing Suárez and Liverpool are duty-bound under the terms of Suárez&#8217;s £100,000-a-week contract to inform the player of any offers in excess of £40 million. But Rodgers and managing director Ian Ayre remain steadfast in their position that the Uruguayan will not be sold.

    And with Manchester United holding firm on their stance that Wayne Rooney will not leave Old Trafford this summer, Anfield manager Rodgers insists that Liverpool are also one of the small group of clubs big enough to resist attempts by players to force a move elsewhere.

    &#8220;Absolutely,&#8221; Rodgers said. &#8220;This is something we will control. This situation will not be controlled by the player.

    &#8220;I am very strong on the values of the club, where we are and how we operate.

    &#8220;Football and society is different nowadays, the [transfer] market is totally different and players can create different ways to open it up.

    &#8220;But I have always said that there is no player bigger than Liverpool Football Club and that is something we are very strong on.

    &#8220;Do I expect him to stay? Very much so. A lot has been said in the off season, but the reality is that he is very much a player of importance.

    &#8220;Every player has a value and a worth, but it doesn&#8217;t mean we are going to sell him.&#8221;

    Rodgers and Suárez held informal discussions at the team hotel on Monday after the player took part in a small-sided training session and further fitness work in the swimming pool.

    And with Suárez due to remain with the squad for the remainder of the tour, which moves on to Thailand on Thursday, Rodgers admits that talks will continue in order to resolve the situation.

    &#8220;I will do what I have done with the rest of the players and sit down with him,&#8221; Rodgers said. &#8220;The reality is that we do have one or two things to clear up, but that will be done and we will continue to work.

    &#8220;Luis and I have been in regular contact, but by the time we got here on Sunday night and had a bite to eat, it was late.

    &#8220;We have that sort of relationship, though, where communication is open. I always tell him what I feel.

    &#8220;Luis is here as expected, he is an integral part of squad and we will chat at some stage.

    &#8220;The bottom line is he&#8217;s a Liverpool player. We have only had one bid for him and it was nowhere near the value we have of him and there has been nothing since.&#8221;

    The strength of reaction to Suárez from the club&#8217;s Australia-based supporters could yet prove influential in the outcome of his battle to leave, with an anticipation that he will be greeted warmly by fans at an open training session on Tuesday and during Wednesday night&#8217;s game.

    But despite his brief summer break - partially extended by the serving of four of his 10-game suspension at the end of last season for biting Chelsea&#8217;s Branislav Ivanovic - Rodgers insists that Suárez will play some part of the friendly in Melbourne.

    &#8220;I&#8217;m sure he will want play some part against Melbourne,&#8221; Rodgers said. &#8220;The players are not quite up to 90 minutes yet. In Indonesia on Saturday, I played a team for about 60 minutes and looked to make changes, but all players will be involved and have some part to play because it is about our preparation.

    &#8220;Luis will train and we will communicate over the next few weeks, but we have spoken quite a lot over the summer.
    &#8220;We will chat more, but he is a Liverpool player, he will be part of the group and you could see his closeness with squad when we arrived on Sunday night.&#8221;

    I agree, I want to think he'd stay but deep down I still think that he wants to go.

    I've not been shy in saying I want him gone but if the club and (dare I say it without being declared a sheep) Rogers can actually enforce this 'club before player' ethos both in keeping Suarez until a time of our choosing and replacing Reina at a time of our choosing (even if it was a risk or clumsy) then we are telling all those young players we are going to rely on over the next 5 years that no matter how big you get, if you rock the boat or allow your agents to upset our plans you'll be dealt with.

    Now it's a ploy that might still backfire but I'd rather see it tried than to turn into arsenal and watch as we feed & water talent until they think they're better than us. What message would that send to a Sterling or Ibe.

    It's what I've focused on in BR's last couple of statements "club, performance then player" in that order.

    But to who else? Usually when Madrid want some one they're heavily linked through-out the window, there's been hardly anything so far. PSG and Monaco have both bought star strikers. The only other teams I can see are Napoli or Chelsea, who both have money to burn and both need a new striker.
     
    #1698
  18. Yeah, I agree with this. My other concern is about the club spending the money wisely if he was to go.
     
    #1699
  19. They don't need to keep the link going if they know they can wrap up a deal anytime they like
