Am I the only person that thinks Suarez would be a brilliant signing for Juve?

And I know its been Callejon and 20mil that's rumoured but what about Higuain and 20mil, Would Liverpool fans be happy with that?

I think suarez would be a brilliant signing for any prison.

Good news Arsenal fans, the best player in Africa has confirmed he wants to stay. Looks like you'll be keeping one of your top talents this year.

Yessss. Fear us !

Supposedly we're in for Villa. I wouldn't mind him really.

Might sound pedantic, but i'd prefer Higuain plus £25 million.

We're going to need a striker and an attacking mid to replace Suarez realistically.

Happier, undoubtedly, but still pissed.

Rodgers getting Sturridge and Coutinho has bolstered his spotting credentials. They reckon he'd buy adroit young foreigners, rather than Kevin Nolan.

Actually the new "Transfer Committee" has taken all the plaudits. Last summer we were after Dempsey, Borini and Allen (two of which Rodgers had already worked with). Whoever is really responsible for those two signings is anyone's guess.

Higuain is not going to swap Real for Liverpool, with all these teams with rich owners around if Real were indicating he was able to leave they would go and get cash for him.

Also, Suarez isn't worth that much anyway.

Doesn't Rodgers have final say on all transfers though?

Wouldn't mind one of Lamela, Eriksen or Mkhitaryan for an attacking midfielder. Mkhitaryan would be amazing just to see commentators trying to pronounce his name.

Yes, but I was referring to the phrase "spotting credentials". A lot of fans had doubts about Rodgers ability to spot a player and believe the "Transfer Committee" convinced Rodgers about those two.

(Remember last summer when there were papers and ITKs who said that the club refused to sanction the Dempsey move but would purchase Sturridge? Chelsea turned down the loan Rodgers wanted so he refused to sanction a purchase if rumors are to be believed.)

Morning footygaf.

Checking on various papers, AS got an article on Suarez. I check it only to find they are only reporting what the Mirror has reported. Le sigh. I will never stop seeing the suarez to madrid shit will I? Still nothing from spain, its all the british papers pushing their agenda.

Have to say though the Mirror's bs of 23-27 million plus callejon made me chuckle. If I'm not mistaken we are trying to trade Callejon + $$$ to try to sign Isco (and probably fail miserably). Which makes me doubt the Mirror's claims even more. I'm not familiar with any british paper (I do not follow the EPL). they similar to daily mail or they might have something? I reckon its just paper talk trying to make something happen as Flo says, Still quiet in spain.

Heynckes laughing off tymo's comments made me lol. well regardless I do not care who comes, as long as its not that fool Carlo I don't mind who comes. Though Tottenham's AVB being considered 3rd choice does not fill me with confidence.

Would Suarez go on strike if Liverpool decide not to sell?
Madrid would need to be interested first. let's not get ahead of ourselves.

If think the whole Dempsey thing was a power struggle within the club. After that summer, the club does not seem to be as cautious about spending money anymore, like they became over Kenny's singings.

Rumours that #THFC also mulling over £25m + Defoe bid for Suarez. Couldnt offer him #CL football for a season but chance to play with #Bale

I can't really blame Suarez if he wants to leave. He might be an idiot sometimes, but he's by far our best player. People saying we didn't miss him at the end of the season are crazy. We played with no pressure the games he was banned. We had nothing to play for.

Twitter is amazing, the only signings people want to make are 20 year old wonderkids who probably have 5* potential in FM, completely ignoring the fact that one of our biggest weaknesses has been our mentality, experience and lack of leadership.

Edit: LFC putting out the standard "not for sale" statement. Interesting that Suarez insists he made his feelings clear to the club, LFC's statement says the opposite.

Piece by piece, you're turning into modern day Arsenal, minus the CL qualification.

Then why why not burn posters/pictures and memorabilia rather than the club's shirt? The same shirt they will wear again next season with another name on it?

This is where empathy fails for me. I cannot fathom the minds of those who do this.
Idiots will be idiots after all.

The Summer. the time in which I might regret being a real madrid fan. just miight...
If there is anything I hate its the rumor mill. We probably won't go after anyone for real bar neymar (failed), bale (TBD) till elections are done. till then these papers gonna tabloids to sell and make money. Fucking sucks to filter out the shit and the legit reports.

#LFC : The Club remains supportive of Luis and expect him to honour his contract. We will not be making any further comment at this stage.

A statement from #LFC: Luis Suarez is not for sale - neither Luis or his representatives have communicated these feelings directly to LFC.
