Yes,that quantum leap was originally 30m for Suarez though .
So not such a big difference in football terms.
Liverpool had already made clear that they valued Suarez at 50m or more - so Ivan was in no danger of having his 40m and a quid accepted.
I was surprized though how many people thought it was a done deal that Suarez would join us. They will all be slagging him off again now when he joins Real Madrid instead :-)
I bet you're praying every night that he doesn't sign. You'll have nothing to moan about then.
I know that he won't sign for us,
because Stan will never sanction the sort of money needed to force Liverpool to sell him to us.
Oh, I just checked and found that you believed the Sun story ,
about the 40m and a quid bid :hehe:
You know Stan personally then? Why is the money an issue? it's not coming out of his
own pocket. It's not like he is banking all the profit we make. I reckon we'd make a bid to the value of £50m for him.
I'm guessing that he won't give Liverpool 50m for Suarez.
You are also guessing that he will do so.
I think I'm a strong favorite to win this difference of opinion.
The last club to pay 50m for a striker to Liverpool was Chelsea.
If the Chelsea Rooney bid comes unstuck then Jose might get involved for Suarez. Real will be in fore him despite what some claim if their Bale bid fails. It's looking like it might .
I make Perez's circus of clowns fav to sign Suarez in some swap deal that allows Liverpool the option of not selling Suarez to a Prem club.
