KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum We must not sell Suarez!

You are right on the money with that post.

It doesn't matter if we get £40m or £50m for LS, the problem is finding a replacement of the same standard.

Top players no longer see us as an option when they look at changing clubs and that situation will only get worse if we allow LS to leave.

We cant afford any more punts on potential and need to invest in top class players that will make an immediate impact.
However it may already be too late for that.

Our current owners do not have the drive, determination or will to do whatever it takes to get us back to the top. They are merely treading water until they can make a financial killing in the form of a new buyer.

Our owners are baseball fans, what did we honestly think was going to happen.

so far the club have played a blinder, they have not reacted to speculation and have clearly stated that there has been no transfer request, no bid from Madrid and until a day or so no bid from anyone. The only thing they have said is that he has a 4yr contract and is not for sale.all the speculation comes from fans and media alike.the press are stoking it up in order to get fans to turn and protest.If we all keep cool and tell everyone to F'Off then it's an easy deal.

Sadly, people like EMP & faz are falling for it hook line and sinker. They have actually turned on an LFC player based on what the media are saying. If LFC fans should know one thing, it's that the media aren't our friend.

I believe that there could well be some truth in all of this fiasco (I'd be surprised if there wasn't!), but I'll reserve judgement until I KNOW for sure. That is the intelligent approach.

With respect cp1972 you have missed the point made so well by the last posters. F Suarez leaves and we don't replace with an equivalent ( who will likely not want t come) then where does this leave the club ?

We are in the worst postion since pre shanky days.

oh please..it is not the media..do you want luis to call round ur house before u will believe him.

Why - has he called round your house to keep you updated?

If it's not the media, who is it and where did you hear about it?

hold onto ur grammar rigidity , its the only thing u got going for urself.

ur all over the place on this issue again. you were 100% certain that it was all bull and he would defo stay. that stance has changed somewhat now?

the human brain is capable of deciphering from BS and truth. you should try engaging it.

If Suarez has no buy out clause, we should keep him, end of. FSG may consider the sale of an unhappy player to 'unavoidable' but, as has been said, we will not attract players of any calibre if we let him go. From their (FSG) point of view, his sale will make it harder to preserve value in their acquired asset. It would be imprudent to sell him unless they were offered silly money - over £100M or something. There is no future for a club outside CL, that cannot hold its players contract. If the clause exists and is only £40M, someone needed to be a lot more mindful in the construction of his new contract.

If we sell him, without being forced by contract clauses, FSG have to go. That's the only message I'm interested in conveying to them. If Suarez is sold, that means it's simply a matter of time before Coutinho, Sturridge etc are prized away. The situation then becomes exactly the same as we had with H and G.

To take ownership of a club like LFC and not acknowledge the need to hold on to the best players is, to my mind, more damning of the owners than Suarez's behaviour is of him.

And what if he goes on strike ..like he has done before. what then?

I don't give a flying f*ck what he says or has said about the interest of other clubs. Even golden boy Gerrard was tempted to leave us for Chelsea, but he stayed. Even Ian Rush left briefly for Juventus. He came back, scored more goals, and he was a hero again. All I care about (if he stays) is that he gives 100% while he wears the shirt and he scores his goals. If he leaves, all I care about is how much money we get (which all the interest being played recently up will add to). What he says and what the media says is absolutely immaterial as far as I'm concerned.
