Calm down, calm down, when he said he was now staying at Liverpool, Suarez, it seems, meant that he was staying at Liverpool for now, until the details of his transfer are sorted out. Of course, his initial statement, which he has now denied, was designed to get Liverpool fans excited so that the effect of his volte face on the apparent volte face would be all the more powerful.
What Suarez wants now is hate, and lots of it. He wants the Liverpool fans to turn on him, he wants the calls for him to be jettisoned to increase, he wants the Board to be harangued by the fans into letting him go. And he is probably loving every minute of this, taking the piss out of the very fans who backed him to the hilt and beyond.
And sadly, you can see why he is so anxious to go. Liverpool claim that they do not want to sell to a rival, but that hardly explains why they won't sell to Arsenal. The days when Liverpool were in competition with the Gunners are now long gone. Let's face it, even with Suarez, Liverpool only finished 7th last season, 12 points shy of Arsenal in 4th place, despite Wenger's men having a poor season. In truth, if Liverpool don't want to sell to a rival, they shouldn't have agreed to sell Carroll and Downing to West Ham, because both teams will be battling for a place in mid table obscurity next season.
Liverpool really should look at the Suarez deal another way. By selling him to Arsenal, they may increase the chances of their bĂȘte noirs Manchester United not winning the title. And let's face it, that's just about the best Liverpool fans can hope for next season!
Do arsenal think they can still win the league?
ReplyDeleteIf you think Man Utd will win the league you are deluded!
ReplyDeletebitter and twisted. ARSENAL = NO TROPHIES hahahaha
ReplyDeletethe only bit of this article that is any good is this little extract.
ReplyDelete" the Gunners are now long gone"
MADARCHOD
ReplyDeleteVery poor attempt to wind up Liverpool fans
ReplyDeleteLike the reasoning. I would put it more like is 1 man worth 50m? Liverpool could pull themselves several places up the league with 50m. As an Arsenal fan I'm more concerned about what Liverpool would do with 50m than us gaining Suarez. Same with Spurs, £85m for Bale buys alot of firepower. Both these clubs can't afford to dine at the top table unless somebody gives them a hand out.
ReplyDeleteTrue, Liverpool are a mid table, non-UCL club. They cannot continue to believe and hope that they can hold onto any player (especially one valued at the same as Cavani - by Rogers estimation at least) . No other top class player is staying with clubs not in the UCL. No surprising that Reina went to Napoli at the first opportunity.
ReplyDeleteOh......quite a few of us want him gone all right, just at our price.....not what that cannibal or the interested club thinks is right.
ReplyDeleteVery funny, but probably true.
ReplyDeleteOnly trouble with your last sentence is that its almost impossible that Utd will win the league this year regardless of where Suarez goes. In fact with Suarez there is a chance they could finish above Utd even though it could be 5th or 6th and I say this as an Arsenal fan.
ReplyDeletewhat a joker? 8 years and counting...forever in our shadow sad gooner
ReplyDeletehear hear!
ReplyDeleteyoure obviously a bitter and twisted gooner who is not very funny but is a sad git.
ReplyDelete2mins of my time wasted reading this obv written by a arse-nal fan, more wishful thinking and suarez propaganda. last time i checked you dont get a trophy for finishing 4th.
ReplyDeleteYep, lots of Gooners operate under the handle of Hammersfan! I am entirely neutral here. I'd love Liverpool to lose Suarez but I'd love Arsenal to waste £40m on a player who will fall out with Wenger in ten minutes flat.
ReplyDeleteYour a knobhead and your club is a has been.Don't forget you've won nothing for 8 years lol
ReplyDeleteMy club hasn't won a trophy for a lot longer than 8 years! But only because your club cheated in the FA Cup final by closing down that throw in.
DeleteIt all evens itself out in the end eh? Tevez for no trophies = karma.
DeleteBy the way 1709, you don't get a trophy for finishing 7th either. But you do get a Champions League place for finishing 4th.
ReplyDeleteOh and did Liverpool win the title the season before your last "Champions League" triumph? It seems you can win a trophy by finishing as an also ran after all.
Let's do the talking on the field lads. Come next May, we'll see who is better, Arsenal or Liverpool. But based on last season's performances, Arsenal is definitely better than Liverpool. Winning the European Cups does not guarantee eternal superiority. Remember Nottingham Forest !
ReplyDeleteLiverpool is a mid table team and should stop living in past glory. it will take them 5 years to get into ucl spot thus after Roman calls time on Chelsea.
ReplyDeleteBlah, blah, blah.
ReplyDeleteLiverpool, Arsenal...who cares they are both "also rans" currently. One player will not change that for either of them.
Oh and I'm a Liverpool fan, always will be, doesn't mean I am blind to the current situation.
I find the article quite accurate but the comments it has generated are quite hilarious. Particularly because the writer is by no means an Arsenal fan which despite clues seems to have passed many people by! It is also true that all Arsenal have done is put in two (possibly three) bids for one of Liverpool's players. No more, no less. Liverpool have in the past often tried, mostly successfully, to do the same with lesser achieving clubs. Why they are making so much of a song and dance on someone doing it to them is quite astonishing. Not selling Suarez, and there is only one club prepared (wisely or not) to take the risk of buying him, will be counter-productive for several reasons. Liverpool with or without Suarez are unlikely to be competing for a top 4 spot, Arsenals biggest threat comes from Spurs.
ReplyDeleteABSOLUTE TRASH! Y not write about the mean-rat thats wenger? Tell him to buy the finished players-not training kids and deadwoods. Get yourselves somewhere north of your funny £15m transfer record and talk then and only then...
ReplyDeleteHmm if Liverpool are rivals of West Ham doesn't that therefore completely justify the sale of Carroll and Downing to you?
