Suarez: the great moral dilemma of our time

Timbob

As I said, Dzeko is a lot better than Giroud. The vast majority of people would agree and the stats show it too.

Anyone that thinks otherwise sucks donkey cock. That is all.

Kel Varnsen

never mind. can't be bothered.

Timbob

Glad you saw the error of your ways.

Kel Varnsen

oh don't worry, i still think that anyone who rates dzeko is clueless.

If we're talking about picking up strikers battling for game time I'd prefer Lukaku, Hernandez or Ba here over Dzeko

Captain

Not Hernandez or Ba, but Lukaku is dynamite and about as likely to come as Dzeko...

Timbob

Ewwww....donkeys Kel? Really?

Dzeko is a 2nd tier striker for me, can't understand why he's so highly rated on here. I don't even think he's particularly good with his back to goal, much better with the ball at his feet facing goal with load of space infront of him. Think he thrives best in a counter attacking team. Giroud is better in a possession based team IMO.

The only top tier strikers on the market are Suarez and Rooney IMO. We should target those 2 and don't bother with the rest.

Less likely. Can't imagine that even this odd new nice Wenger loving Jose would sell Lukaku to us.

Suarez is not a £50m player and if we spend that, it will be a massive overvaluation. Sometimes that's necessary but we'll see.

So my prediction is starting to come true (Link). Tomorrows papers claiming there is no release clause in Suarez' contract and since our £40m+1 bid was provocative they have no intrest in dealing with us any further. Now that Higuain is gone and Real has enough money to launch a bid everything will fall into place. Im 100% sure we didnt bid £40m+1 without knowing for sure about the existance of the clause or not. We did it to get things moving in the market (or to keep up a smokescreen) and to send some positive signals to the fans about trying hard while fully knowing this bid doesnt oblige us to do anything.

Tin hat?

So duping the fans is the aim of the game this transfer window?
It's all some elaborate game?

It's going to be spectacularly unsucessful if that was their intention - given that they will have angered fans who hate Suarez by bidding for him in the first place and now, if they back off, they will anger fans who wanted him to be signed.

I suppose if you're a fan of conspiracy theories that don't require any real proof, and if you think that Wenger and Co are just fooling around with the business of managing the team then you're likely to believe that bidding for Suarez was not a realistic attempt at actually signing him.

Yes, i refuse to believe we are after him and didnt know what we were doing with that supposed bid. His every fibre is against what we value over here and there is no way Wenger will make such a drastic u-turn in his approach. As i said it was most likely some kind of response or a smokescreen.

You will see i was right 😉

or maybe you are just crazy person

We're in a desert of the soul. A few mirages are bound to rise up before us. 🙂

Irishgunner

I honestly think we'll sign him.

But I thought that about Fellaini, Higuain, and Jovetic 🙁

Don't buy into Marv's theory though.

Well if it looks like bullshit and smells like bullshit and it feels like bullshit, then it's a fair bet.......

Burnwinter

Marv's theory doesn't make any sense does it? With Liverpool relatively miffed about our behaviour, you'd hope we're not just fucking them around - got to be a serious bid.

At the same time, though, we surely must have a plan B, even if it's just strengthening other areas considerably and persisting with Giroud, Walcott, Podolski and Cazorla as our main options for the front three.
