Luis Suárez

[DannyMan2006]

I'm really not so sure that he'll leave. He has two options the way I see it - Real and Bayern. If they don't come in for him he'll stay. And I don't think it's nailed on that either will make proper moves for him.

Agreed. That's my take on it too.

[TheElephantMan]

If he leaves I'll be disappointed, regardless of the stats he's a wonderful player to watch. We need to reinvest the cash wisely and strengthen our weakest areas without trying to replace him, he's irreplaceable anyway.

Yep, it's a 50/50 for me. I think Bale is far more likely to go to Real than Luis is.

Also can't help feeling if Bayern, and Pep, wanted Luis they would have made their move already, especially as Suarez's agent is Pep's brother.

There's hope yet

[Shaggy]

Agreed. That's my take on it too.

I think Real will talk a lot but we'll see. They want Bale, they may want Cavani too. Bayern of course are getting Gotze and probably Lewandowski. Not sure it's all that clear cut. Just hope we sort it one way or another and it doesn't cast a shadow over the whole window and drag on til the end of August.

Maybe. But would you be comfortable keeping him though? This is the 2nd time he's gone back to Uruguay and flirted with another club pretty much. Leaves a pretty bad taste

Realistically the only way it will end before the end of August is if he signs for someone else.

Yep, I'd still be fine with it, players do it all the time, I don't think he's done much wrong with that.

I hope he stays. I don't fancy us losing Carragher, Reina and Suarez in the same window. All big characters and it won't be easy to replace them all. I really don't want another season of transition so I hope we can keep all our top players.

Yeah

Unless both Real and Bayern go on massive splurges without signing Suarez, but yeah there'd still be agent and paper talk. Annoying. Imagine losing him on August 30th with no time to spend the dough?

we will end up signing shane long for 35m

Since when did you start to believe agents?

Realistically the only way it will end before the end of August is if he signs for someone else.

or if he sign a new deal.

I believe Suarez will be happy enough to stay unless a massive club such as Real Madrid come in for him. Talk of possibly Atletico Madrid is crap.

Speaking for myself, I'd have been happy to let him go had he done his best by us. But after enforced bans I think he owes us another season and I'd be a bit pissed at him if he left.

Atletico Madrid - I wouldn't discount them. CL football, passionate fans, always willing to spend big on a striker.

[DannyMan2006]

There'll always be talk of our star players leaving. Even if we were in the top 4 every season and even if we were competing for the title. Look at Ronaldo. The best player available left Man Utd for Real.

In my mind Luis Suarez, Gareth Bale and Edinson Cavani are the best players available and that's why Real have them as targets. No doubt they'll sign one of them.

[DannyMan2006]

Atletico Madrid - I wouldn't discount them. CL football, passionate fans, always willing to spend big on a striker.

I would. They're nothing when it comes to talking about top clubs. We're more valued than them and no guarantee they'll be top 4 next year or year after.
