If Suarez is still with Liverpool at the beginning of the season there is little room for maneuver for him. He would have to get his acts together.


could well be the case... despite EVERYTHING the asshole never put w written request in so he would fight in court to go but never lose his loyalty bonus. there is certainly something in that.
I'm sure Suarez's lawyers will have informed him that there is little or no point in handing in a written transfer request. Suarez signed a new contract less than 1 year ago. Therefore the possibility of buying yourself out does not apply. Add to that the logistics element that Henry has outlined and you have very little likelihood of success. Just to top that off, any judgement against LFC would be likely to be appealed to the CAS as the 'law' is rather unclear.

Foredeckdave:5149459 said:He was unequivocal, he said he's not being sold to anyone this window;
"He won't be sold even if a foreign club comes in because we do not have time to sign a suitable replacement,"
"It's not about finances. So late in the window... we can't replace him. So for football reasons we can't sell"
I can understand the media still continuing to agitate for what they want to see happen. However, John Henry has not just rained on their parade - he's deluged it! The 2 abstracts that you quote witness it. No Real or any other foreign club and certainly no Arsenal. If any of our supporters are still thinking that he won't be here when the window closes then you'd better get you heads into shape. John Henry has spoken and he means it.
Now, what happens after the window closes is another matter. He could be gone in January, it could be at the end of the season (after the World Cup) or it could be that both sides kiss and make-up but I think that unlikely. JH has put the ball firmly in Suarez's court as to how he will be handled until such time as he does leave the club.
Why am I so confident that neither JH or LFC will backtrack on this policy statement? Because they can't afford to. It's as simple as that. FSG/LFC have won the battle. They have restored the power of the club and if they do backdown they will never be taken seriously as owners again. They have shown that they are committed to the club and the players who are contracted to them but they will not be pushed about. In the longer term I believe that is important because of the contract dealings that we will have to undergo with our younger players.
If you notice during his remarks about Arsenal, which are corporately very scathing, the only 'kind' word he has is for Kroenke who he refers to by his first name. I just wonder what dealings those 2 may have in the US and what the implications might be for Wenger and Gazidis?
The whole thing now in favour of Liverpool. Buyer wants to buy seller do not want to sell.![]()
i can see a third year of suarez saga to come.
I said yesterday a season long loan to a CL club would be win-win, he gets what he wants and the fans don't have to engage with him at all. But .... we need Coutinho and Aspas to keep playing like they have in pre-season. Opta showed we would have been in 7th without Suarez' goals [still find that hard to believe] - we're not going to get any penalties with him and wouldn't be surprised at a few sendings off this season.
I don't think purely playing in the champions league is what he wants (Im sure he would be more than happy to play for Monaco), and why should we indulge him if it is. He's either sold or he plays for us, I see no upside for loaning him out.
If he's not going to play, then hard man Henry will no doubt have him cutting the grass & selling golden goal tickets on a match day.
