BBC put it on their front page that we're opening talks with Barcelona - http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/28112887

It looks like he's going. If he was staying, I think the club would have made a statement by now.

I agree it looks like he's going at this stage. Hope there's a lot of hard ball played and we get what we want.

If it does happen, I really hope Sanchez is part of the deal, I reckon he'd get at least 20 goals for us next season.

Sappy404 · 02-07-2014 12:16PM

Can't see Barca meeting any release clause if we're interested in getting Sanchez. I hope we wait until the appeal is concluded before deciding anything.

IK09 · 02-07-2014 12:20PM

I refuse to believe that hes leaving until i see him leaning on something in Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper, Barcelona's Training ground.

It would be great to get Real into the mix. It's obviously not a genius, oracle like call, but whoever got him/gets him would/will win La Liga.

And I still won't watch it.

Yeah, bloody spurs playing in La Liga as well.

I was there once, lovely spot, still gonna puke in my mouth when I see him in a Barca jersey though...

Such is life - he's a goner lads....

Spurs isn't playing for Spurs anymore, though. He's gone back to his birth name, after Spurs merged teams with Real.

Dickerty · 02-07-2014 12:30PM

We know this day would come. It would feel a lot worse if he had played that season AND been flawlessly behaved for the last 3 seasons.

But the idea of him missing about 30+ games through suspension in that time, and dragging our good name through the mud repeatedly, makes it a lot easier to bear.

And let's remember - there is always another star on the rise. Maybe it's Origi, or Sterling, or Can, or none of them.
There is a finite number of world class players, but it's not static...

This might sound a bit mad but if I was LS I would be very careful about a decision to go to Barcelona. Barcelona is Messi’s fiefdom, we can all see how given a bit more freedom Sanchez and Neymar have displayed their talents to the fullest. They’re simply not given the freedom to play like that at Barcelona, mostly because it’s messi’s team. Ronaldo hasn’t got such a hold on Real Madrid – Bale was integrated into the team far more successfully that Neymar into Barca.

Real is Ronaldo's fiefdom.

You could see that by the extent that Bale prostrated himself when he went there.

I think Messi is more involved with Barca's play than Ronaldo because of their respective positions on the pitch but off the pitch it sounds like the same story.

Grayditch · 02-07-2014 12:33PM

Yep, I hope if he goes anywhere, it's to Barca, because I want to see the carnage between him and Messi.

Agent Coulson · 02-07-2014 12:40PM

The Star and The Mirror both saying we are now looking at Yarmolenko so if you can't get one Ukrainian winger go for the other one :pac:

£15m price tag.

02-07-2014 12:42PM

If Suarez leaves Liverpool who the fook am I gonna have as my Fantasy Football Captain?

I was bad enough when Norwich got relegated :eek:

I agree with you this is the most serious question that needs to be answered

His ban doesn't allow him near training grounds AFAIK so will probably have to be the car park or something unless it gets changed in the appeal

gucci · 02-07-2014 12:51PM

one sickening thing to come out of this transfer is that it will boost Liverpools transfer fund to the points of the owners probably end up actually investing less of their own this year than last year!

Apart from building a new stadium.

aramush · 02-07-2014 12:55PM

£80 million in the paw or £70+Pedro or £60+Sanchez. F**k them, Liverpool hold all the aces and Barca know it.

I think RVP is a good option given the LVG factor and United's easy opening fixtures

Well, we don't know that! If we spend what was reported on Lallana, Lambert and Can, and we get Sanchez and £50M for Luis, then there is only about £10-14M left...

Outlay last summer was only £20M net, we could still break that with Moreno and Shaqiri...

Sanchez is worth more than 15m to Barca!

50m + Sanchez or 80m cash

If they spent that after selling Suarez they'd be doing a spurs, and I doubt any Liverpool fans want that.

kfallon · 02-07-2014 12:57PM

I'm sick of all this already!

Luis, if you're reading, please don't go (and I know you are reading

)

My heart will be broken if he leaves, be like John Aldridge and Robbie Fowler being sold all over again

Or just fúck off you're not getting him.

Somebody needs to stand up to Barca and Real, they think they can tap any player they want up and get him. I detest both clubs, they seem to hold themselves up as Bastions of Morality when they are, in fact, the lowest of the low.....lower than the buttons on a snake's waistcoat!

So the profits on the sale of players are somehow not "their own money"?? :eek: Whose money is it?

This thread has been getting out of hand lately, but Jaysus, Kfallon, that's a vicious one.

We really are the worst.

FutureGuy · 02-07-2014 01:05PM

I though the turnaround in the apology was a bit off alright. Looks like he'll be sold.

Never a good day to see one of the best in the league leave for another country. Incredible player.

kfallon · 02-07-2014 01:05PM

I can't see your pic/gif when I'm in work!

We are the worst tho, that's why Suarez wants out, he's seen the thread, how could he play for a shower like us!!

Ben

perhaps i phrased it poorly, but Im just pointing out that the actual net investment is going to possibly be low again,despite the massive spike in premiership tv money and being back in the champions league.
i guess the only way we will know is by doing the sums at the end of the window.
