Could be worse could spend a load on Rickie Lambert.

His father?

Shaw and Herrera are good players and will help United. They have to pay over the odds to make sure given their current state.
Lallana is done. Great signing for us. Hoping Moreno follows, and then Sanchez (and possibly Shaqiri) as well as a CB (Lovren). its a long list, but I think Suarez will be moved (Agger and Aspas as well) Honestly, i love him as a player and I fear for our time without him. But the rest of the world just isnt as fixated at tearing him down as the English are (rightfully so, not condoning his actions. he's an idiot). but his antics will be laughed off in Spain, whereas in England they just hate it. Probably best for all involved to go. If he stays, i'd be happy as well.
United sold Ronaldo, won tropies. Arsenal have sold Nasri, Fabregas and RVP, maintain their top 4 status. It can be done, just needs to be done better than Spurs.
peachesenregalia wrote:SkySports' Spain pundit Guillem Balague is reporting that Barca and Liverpool are in talks about a deal for Suarez, with Sanchez and Pedro coming the other way, plus some cash possibly. Supposedly Real and Barca both are still heavily invested in bringing Suarez to Spain this summer. Honestly, I'd prefer to have him stay, but Sanchez, Pedro and cash would be hard to turn down at this point. My only concern would be the addition of Lallana, Shaquiri and Sanchez slowing down the development of Coutinho and Sterling - but I guess competition breeds improvement. We'll see.

Averaging 14 league goals a season the last 2 seasons, but aye, you're right, he's shit.

So classy from the scouse wannabe. All that failure must be getting to you. You sound like a whiner.

meh... i dont know about this one. He helps the squad in terms of depth and options. Seems a very solid player who may thrive under BR. But the price tag? Could be an Ozil type player, could be another Joe Allen (neither in terms of ability, as all three play different roles in the midfield, but more in terms of impact)
Excited about Emre Can though. Talented, young, physical player, shades of a younger Gerrard. Could develop into a very good player for us in the future, while helping us with depth this season.

Southampton is no doubt getting a great deal in offloading Lambert, Lallana and Shaw. Probably getting more than they actually should though.

I think even before the bite this was probably inevitable. Your thoughts, Simon?

The price tag for Yedlin will most likely be north of $5 Million.
The first of many I'm sure.

His name (as well as Johnsons) popped up on the Liverpool site I visit.
Would love to see it to be honest...an American field player at Liverpool

Keep dreaming, Suarez is damaged goods. As if anyone is going to pay in the area of 70m.

Yedlin would make some sense, we need FB help for sure, and he fits the mold of what Rodgers likes - young, athletic, likes to get forward.
Would love to see him in Liverpool Red.

LOL, are you deliberately trying to come across as naive and stupid? Talks are ongoing with Barca, they are at 60m, we are at 80 and sticking firm. I'd say the area of 70m sounds about right. What will you say when that happens?

why bother with him?

I had not realized that after the Bale selling (and Modric the year before) and all the terrible football Spurs played last year they only finished 3 points off their pace from the pre-Bale year, a year in which they finished 4th.
I'm resigned to losing Suarez, and cant make up my mind if its good or bad (which means its both). I guess the positive is we will be free of the constant speculation regarding him and will have a handful of new players in. Whether that all works out to be better than an actual Suarez scoring actual goals will be the question of the season.

inevitable there would be discussion, yes. I'm still very surprised its Barca that are interested in him. They're weak in the middle and in the back. age has caught up with them. they rely on the best player in the world to open play up, and hope Neymar (and Sanchez) can expose the compacted defenders on the flanks. Where does Suarez fit in all that? where does his persona fit in a team that belongs to (although very quietly behind closed doors) to Messi? is that Barca's best use of 80-100 million? (especially if they only have one window this season)
I always thought it would be Real. I still think there are twists to this story. I don't think he's spot on to Barca, or that Sanchez is spot on to come the other way. PSG and Monaco may have a say.
