So any theories on why Wenger would not be put off by Suarez's previous antics?

[Monty91]

I guess there are only so many available world class players in the world (and fewer with a proven track record in England) and the opportunity for a club of our modest standing can't pass up an opportunity to sign one.

[Peter]

40 million quid......

Surely we can find better ways to spend that.

[Monty91]

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

He being both of them.

You know, the whole biting thing, wrong. Pack it in. Shouldn't be that hard to get across.

Diving? Let's not get into that. All clubs do it.

[Monty91]

We'd be paying £40 million for his quality, not his name.

[Pat Vegas]

[Ashberto]

You know all this, of course.

[Ashberto]

has gone mad.

[Peter]

To bring in a player at this level. I was wondering why we needed to. We dont usually.

Last summer we spent 40 million on three decent players. Cant we just do that again? Or on two good players?

[Pat Vegas]

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

Maybe a wee bit more even, 3 quality players in the core areas of the side.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

He's a savage.

[Peter]

Especially as he will be suspended most of the time :-)

[Bergkamp's Brain]

The balance sheet shows that our net spent was next to nothing.

[Pat Vegas]

[Monty91]

And anyway, according to you we would never spend that kind of money because we were broke and facing an interminable period of decline.

[Billy Goat Sverige]

[Bergkamp's Brain]

[Monty91]

and now we are people are still moaning!

[Luis Anaconda]

last season

[Monty91]

[Pat Vegas]

on the top end of golden boot table can only be a bonus.

Plus he could make a difference in those games against our top 4 rivals.

[Peter]

But yes, i wouldnt like to think that we were spending that much on one player if it prevented us strengthening elsewhere. It does seem an awful lot of money.

But mainly it is because it is him.

On the spending, i dont get what your point is really. We have been skint for years and we now claim we are not.

Not really sure whst point you are trying to make.

[Classic Jorge]

He's gone giddy with it all and is now behaving like Michael Jackson in Hamleys

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

I just stated a preference for that over the growing need some have for this marquee type signing.

If Suarez joins us then fine, I am just saying we don't necessarily have to spank 40m+ on one player.

We are close to the top sides, 3 top players would improve us hugely and close the gap considerably. That's all.

[Peter]

I dont think sticking a quality striker in our squad is going to change everything.

Basically, i just dont want him.

[Monty91]

and have never mentioned the prospect of an end in sight for our supposed skintness.

I must say I'm surprised you object to spending 40m on one player. More than surprised, actually.

However, I am with you on Suarez. Would rather we didn't 'go there', for purely sentimental reasons...

[Classic Jorge]

Like when they wanted Rooney to take the aggression out of the game, shortly before realising that he gets away with murder anyway

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

So they bought the best there was, who luckily was available at a cut price rate.

[Peter]

Naturally, we may have plenty more to spend, and we may even spend it.

But if we blow pur budget on suarez my feeling would be that it is a massive risk.

I assume we have more to spend.

[Bergkamp's Brain]

We will either get the ones we want, or we won't. If we don't get any of them, competing for them is little consolation and certainly not something the club should take any pleasure from.

[Monty91]

Here we are trying to buy one of the best strikers in the world and people are turning their noses up.

Staggered.

[PSRB]

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

A player either does or doesn't.

[Hillary]

[Luis Anaconda]

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

[Monty91]

if not to spend around that kind of money?

Presumably you'd simply rather we didn't.

[Pat Vegas]

Zidane throwing up a few seconds before taking the pen against England.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

You disgust me.

[Monty91]

[Bergkamp's Brain]

spending money doesn't guarantee success. Of course, Suarez could sign, score 30 goals next season and we win the league and that will be egg on Wenger's face :hehe:

[Peter]

We discussed turning a corner last season and i openly stated that the signing of monreal convinced me thst things were easing.

I didnt expect an overnight change, i thought the spending would gradually rise.

Its just.....look, i trust arsen with the shopping. I am still convinced that he could get us two f**king great players for 40 million, not necessarily established names, but f**king brilliant.

I just dont want this guy and i worry about how much it is costing. I am worried for arsene.

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

[Pat Vegas]

keep it up.

[Classic Jorge]

[Hillary]

[Steve Williams - gay for Mark Knopfler]

I can't say with absolute certainty but I am 99% sure I was very drunk at the time, but you're telling me that G Lineker or Walkers Crisps fame actually shat on the pitch during the World Cup?

...and I so deperately wanted to stick two fingers up those cvnts that boo me every week, so I thought I'd find a high profile player with huge baggage who is hated by everyone. Who would have known that he would turn out to be a brilliant player and win us the league with his outstanding goalscoring ability? Now those cvnts in the crowd are cheering me :lightbulb:

still not happy that he is the one and not Higuain
