Luis Suárez

[BigChief]

Never say never Icon. £70million if re-invested into the team can get us places too. Its not as though we're challenging for the league, or even 4th spot, with Suarez in the team. Not that that's his fault.

Must be able to unearth another Torres/Suarez with that sort of money available.

Manchester City prepare January bid for Liverpool's Luis Suarez

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini is planning to launch an audacious January transfer bid for Liverpool striker Luis Suárez.

By Chris Bascombe11:00PM GMT 14 Nov 2012

The Merseyside club will fiercely resist any attempt to lure their star player from Anfield, but Mancini has made the South American his No 1 target after being rebuffed in attempts to lure Atlético Madrid’s Falcao to the Etihad Stadium.

Falcao is instead likely to move to Chelsea and Mancini, with his new management structure in place, wants the club to show their intent by attempting to prise Suárez from Anfield.

Having recently secured the Uruguayan international on a new contract, Liverpool are in a position to put off bidders with a price tag well in excess of the club record £50 million they received for Fernando Torres two years ago.
Even a bid that would shatter British transfer records would not be welcomed by the Anfield hierarchy who recognise the importance of Suárez to Brendan Rodgers’s rebuilding plans.

The 25 year-old has scored 11 goals in 16 games in all competitions for his club this season, including eight in the Premier League, and despite his chequered disciplinary record, his absence would represent a huge blow to the club’s hopes of regaining their former status.

Suárez himself has shown no inclination for giving up on inspiring the Merseyside club back into the top four and Liverpool will be confident any January move is doomed to fail. Indeed, the club’s priority remains trying to recruit new players when the transfer window reopens.

Rodgers, for his part, reiterated Liverpool’s hard-line stance last weekend. “At this moment in time I’m safe in the knowledge that Luis had the chance to go in the summer,” he said. “There was probably no better time for him to do that with a new manager coming in.

"He could have had an excuse to go, but having spoken to him at length he committed to staying here. He gave us that opportunity to see how it was going to work. It’s up to us as a club to add players that can help support him and move us on.”

Mancini’s determination to test the resolve of Liverpool and their talisman perhaps reveal more about his frustration with strikers Mario Balotelli and Edin Dzeko, both of whom appear to be available for the right price. Balotelli was left out of the squad to face Tottenham Hotspurs last weekend and has been at the centre of several disciplinary pimplodes. He has also failed to score a Premier League goal all season.

In contrast, Dzeko is City's leading goalscorer in the league with six goals, but he appears to have lost the confidence of his manager, who has started him just three times. The Bosnia-Herzegovina international has aired his frustrations at being used mainly from the substitutes’ bench and it would be no great surprise for him to be moved on before the start of next season.

With even the normally reliable Argentine duo of Carlos Tevez and Sergio Agüero struggling for form, City and their new director of football, Txiki Begiristain, are prepared to enter the market in the new year, but directors have made it known to Mancini they must embrace new Financial Fair Play rules, making astronomical transfer fees less likely in future.

No club would pay that type of money for him but the question remains if he wants to be around if we are not going to be competing for top honors.

We did great by improving his contract but we really need to surround him with some quality as it will be tough to fend off likes of Real, Chelsea, Cityh etc who can match and pay above his wages and get him some trophies, which he doesn't have many on his resume.

I don't think Chelsea or City would touch him with a barge pole. That story is pure horse **** imo. The Association of Black Lawyers would be on the phone to the BBC straight away. I would imagine he'll stay until he moves to Spain, where his way of playing would probably be better suited anyway.

Good performance. Great skill to set up the second goal

By the way, was the music supposed to sound like that?

I'm not so sure.

Like him or hate him he is a world class footballer and both clubs need more quality upfront.

I can see his affection towards Spain for the obvious reasons but I can see him staying in England too.

The question is if this story has any substance or not.

Time will tell I suppose.
