All this to replace prob the 3rd most creative player in the world. Thing is they are so arrogant they'd prob offer us that thinking we'd bite the hand off them.....excuse the pun!

Recent years have seen Alonso, Mascherano, Song, Bale, Ronaldo, Suarez all look likely to leave for Barca/Madrid and impact on the quality in the EPL. i think we here would all prefer, regardless of club allegiance to see the best players in the world playing in the EPL. The tax system in Spain versus the tax system in the UK is limiting that potentially. On an aside, should football take off in the states then you may see MLS sides becoming the next major force league and attract a lot better/younger players based on the salaries that would become available there.

If we improved our defence and team we might not concede as many as we did last year and in fact could win the league (or secure top 4) with just 71 goals scored, which I believe is 30 less than we scored last season. In theory you only need 38 goals to win 38 matches. This logic has made me feel alot better about him leaving anyway.

I would certainly be a bigger fan of Pedro. I do realise he is a good footballer and might do well at Liverpool but I wouldn't expect him to perform at anywhere near the level of Suarez.
