Luis Suárez

[Darkon]

To be honest, we already have that with Sturridge. He seems to be far more comfortable in the middle on his own without Suarez.

Use the Suarez money to massively improve on the likes of Downing, Borini, Reina and some defenders, and I think we're onto something.

That was kinda what I was hinting at

Get in another striker and a better support player for the strikers on the wide, and I think we have a much better team, but likely a less prolific one on the individual level.

If Sturridge ever becomes consistent, we have a regular 20+ goals per season scorer on our books already.

Let me first say that I definately don't want Suarez sold.
But moving Suarez on and then improving the defence and Midfield will no question make us a better team as long as the 40m (release clause) is spent wisely.

That's the big gamble, and it is a big gamble. £40-50m sounds a lot, but is easily wasted as we've proved ourselves recently.

Notice, I DID NOT SAY HE IS GOING TO GO. I am saying, the club is resigned to his departure if he decides to go. And he is aware there is interest from top clubs and is considering his future. That is the stage the situation is in.

20m for Sturridge and Coutinho says we're finally getting our act together.

Sounds a bit like Arn. It's his opinion.

The future of Luis Suárez

This is the kind of story Liverpool fans don’t want to hear, but it has happened before and will happen again –it is law of football and a consequence of the stage the club is in, progressing but not at the level where they can expect their best player to ignore interest from other more successful clubs. Liverpool Football Club are resigned to lose Luis Suarez and are preparing life without him. They are aware of the interest from top clubs in Europe and Liverpool feel they have done as much as they can to convince him to stay, and everything is now in the players’s court.

He is happy in Liverpool, the club has looked after him and he feels settle for the first time since he left his home in Uruguay. The family atmosphere has helped him grow and he feels the club has done everything that it was required so he could focus in his game. We all have read the interviews, I have heard him say it himself. But…

At this stage of his career, he would like to test himself in the biggest stage, the Champions League. He hoped Liverpool could provide that but it hasn’t been the case. He expects the progression of the team will take them to the top four at some point but he has heard there are clubs like Real Madrid, Atlético Madrid, Juventus (he is preferred to Higuain), even Chelsea that have shown interest. No offer on the table yet but there will be more than one put during the summer.

His parents in law live near Barcelona and his wife tends to spend time there. Spain is then their preferred destination.

He has a buy out clause which some sources put at £35 million and others at more than £40m. Liverpool will demand the totality of the buy out clause to release the player. There will be clubs willing to pay that. And then it will be all up to the player.

Notice, I DID NOT SAY HE IS GOING TO GO. I am saying, the club is resigned to his departure if he decides to go. And he is aware there is interest from top clubs and is considering his future. That is the stage the situation is in.

"the club is resigned to his departure if he decides to go"

Thanks for that!

Here is my position:

If the high maintenance, mentalist, idiot ****er wants to leave, good riddance to him and let's cash in for us much as possibe asap. Let's not fart about on this.

But...

If our eccentric, loveable rougue genius wants to stay, then let's do everything in our power to build the team around him that he deserves. Let's not fart about on this.

[The_weatherman]

If he wants to go I can understand it, his family speak Spanish, he speaks Spanish, he has been getting a very rough time from the media, we are not competing for anything. Just hope we get 40-50 million pounds so we can invest in the squad, otherwise thanks for the fish.

One more season, that is all we need from him and then this time next season he will not even have a decision to make.

If we're expecting every signing from now on to be as successful as those two then we're in for some disappointment IMO.

[Aj34]

Tbh I'm not fussed if he goes. We ( by we I mean the club ) have stood by him through thick and thin. If he wants to go then just go. Get some good money and replace him with quality and someone that ain't gonna spend half the season banned

You sound so desperate Tee, like a jilted lover begging for another chance

I still think it's a 50/50 to be honest. My biggest fear was Barca coming in for him, there's no way we'd have prevented him going there. He'd have thrown in a transfer request without a doubt to go there. But now they've splashed an insane amount on Neymar I don't think Suarez will be on their radar. That's great news for us, but there's still teams like Real, Bayern and Juventus who would surely tempt him.

I hope he puts an end to the uncertainty one way or the other soon anyway. We need to know where we're working.
