    He's owes the club nothing.

    He's helped us get back into the CL and we make a £50m profit on him.


    If there was a clause and someone met it what can we do?

    Nothing the club can do if there is a clause in the contract . To me he does owe the club . The fact he angled for a move to arsenal even though he was still serving a 10 game ban . Then the whole Evra thing . I think LFC did more for him then he did for LFC . So maybe he could have said I'll give it one more year .

    Because he's a very good player and would improve the team. Who cares what his initial feelings about signing are. If we can convince him to sign it would be a signing with the potential to really mitigate the loss of luis. It'd be shocking business not to try.

    That's no use, we'll definitely need his legs.
    Its the way transfers are going.

    We pay for his head this window.

    Next window his legs.

    Then his body in the next window and so on.

    Cash on delivery.

    That winning mentality is all down to Steve peters and BR .

    Something says to me about BR that he doesn't want to be second best . The man wants and strives to be the best . I don't think Suarez was the driving force last season it was a team thing . You look at the likes of Henderson , Flanagan , sterling and Coutinho . They all played with a swagger . As talented as Luis is to me the whole squad stood up last year and where counted .

    Maybe, the results were good prior to Suarez return last season, and confidence will be high next season

    Jaysus, he'll have to bond with himself before bonding with the team.

    Southampton have lost so much is such a short
    space of time, I feel for their fans alright.

    I feel for Jay Rodriguez. He'll be the one left. Poor bastard.

    What's Southampton's buzz anyway? Are they just cashing in on the success?

    They were ok.

    3 wins all 1-0

    A draw v Swansea and a loss at home to Southampton.

    It was only when Suarez came into the team that the goals started flowing.

    Ah I think it's time for Daniel Sturrigde to shine . To me BR has been prepping him to lead the line . That's why I think the deal was signed off so quickly last January .

    Sturridge is a very good striker but lets not kid ourselves he's not a 1/4 the player Suarez is.

    He needs a top class player in beside him when Suarez goes

    A bit disrespectful to sturridge there saying hes not even 1/4 the player

    Agreed. We've been linked with Muriel in the past and I think he'd be a good addition. Huge potential.

    A 1/3 then?

    Seriously though, he'll never be in the same world class bracket and that's just the reality.

    That's not a criticism of him.

    He is not though Sturridge has the ability to get goals but a lot of the time once he gets a goal he sees that as job done and switches off for the rest of the game. Suarez on the other hand goes from first whistle to last even if he has got 10 goals.

    Sturridge has benefited from being backing man, it has limited all the things that make him so frustrating, and that dynamic should be maintained Imo.

    Pretty much. Owner doesn't want to be there. Her Father bought the club and was into it then passed away. She has no interest and tried to sell already and only backed out temporarily as Cortese quit and Pochettino threatened to walk.

    This is very old now but provides some background;

    Lovren throwing the toys out of the pram this morning in the press. Not really sure if I want a player like that at Liverpool, although he would definitely be an improvement on Skrtel.

    Sturridge was at his best when Suarez was serving his ban at season start ,I feel he loves being the main striker and seems to thrive on it ,wasn't he top scorer in pl before Suarez made his return after the ban ?

    On Technical ability id but Sturridge on the same level its just Luis desire and unpredictability that puts him ahead.

    It seems to me that some people may not realise just how technically amazing Suarez is. I love Danny but he's not in the same league. It's like comparing Walcott to Ronaldo!!!

    He had 3 goals after 5 games.

    No idea if that was top scorer, could well have been.


    Sturridge scored in the 4 games in a row after Suarez's return :)

    Really?

    I'd have thought Suarez is streaks ahead on this score

    very true, walcott is much faster

    Add Suarez and Sturridge together and you still only get half a Doni

    To be honest a striker to me should be judged on the goals they score . I don't care if Sturrigde stands around picking his ho** for an hour . The chap is a goal scorer and that's a big thing to have in a team .
    I'm contemplating doing a full break down of Suarez and Sturrigde to see who scored the important goals .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 241 ✭✭bitemeluis


    Any truth in the speculation that Ashley Cole could appear in red next season - I think he would strengthen the squad

    Of course but to judge them only on that would be incorrect.

    It's certainly the 1st thing you'd look from your strikers though!
