Found it interesting that he specified that it wasnt just verbal promises that have been broken, although thats never going to get mediated before the end of the window. But he's pretty much calling Rogers a liar and I think this is still only the start of the disruption he's prepared to cause.

I still expect Madrid to come in before the end of the window. With his suspension there is no need to get the signing done quickly, and I expect them to wrap up Bale and then move on to Suarez.

I have now come around to Rooney joining us. Purely to see the reaction of the mancs.

If he flops he flops, so be it. We have Lukaku.
I don't think us Mancs really care.

We forgave him the last night he had a sook and threatened to leave. Not this time. I want as much cash as possible for him and I know he will be replaced if sold.

If he declares he wants to stay then so be it.

And we've seen how well arguing his word against someone else's has gone for Suarez in the past! To be honest I think he doesn't give this interview if he and his lawyers are confident that they have a case against Liverpool based on an actual written agreement. I think he's getting desperate now because the offer he was expecting from Madrid hasn't come in yet and he wasn't expecting Liverpool to take such a strong stance that they wouldn't be selling him to an EPL rival under any circumstances.

I think you're right that Madrid will eventually come in for him, they're probably just waiting to see if we'll drop our asking price after Suarez has finished with all of this rubbish. Thankfully Henry, Rodgers & Ayre are making all the right noises that if he's sold it will be on their terms, I think it's important that they maintain that position.

I think were up shit creek without a paddle. Nobody apart from Arsenal seem interested. So we have two options.

Sell to Arsenal on the cheap (40mill) which severely weakens our push for top 4 and pretty much locks them up in the top 4.

Keep him at all costs and watch him destroy the team from within by being a petulant child.

Awesome options.

Please Real Madrid, save us!! 30 million and Morata and it's a done deal.

You dont get if you dont at least ask :D

Also, Real dont care about youth prospects. Real have always just bought players in their prime. The finished article. They would probably let Morata go then just buy him back in 6 years time when he is tearing up the EPL.

Hasn't sounded too good for Liverpool and Rodgers with what Luis has been saying and what Reina said about his loan to Napoli

Haha but that was my point, Morata is the exception to their ridiculous methods. Didn't Real value suarez at 25 mil or something ridiculous?

One of them basically told the club if a good offer from a great club aka Barca comes in, then he wants to leave. Then he gets pissy when Barca is no longer in for him and we told him we don't want him anymore

Another's just a campaigner

Liverpool did absolutely nothing wrong with Reina. He and his agent had been flirting with Barcelona since January, it was getting to the stage that it was highly likely that Valdes was going to leave and Barcelona were going to make an offer for him so we had to bring in a replacement. Circumstances changed and that offer never came but Reina can't then have a sook when we decide to send him elsewhere because we rate Mignolet higher, he's been a great servant of the club and I love him but he doesn't have a leg to stand on there. You can't go off asking your ex to take you back, then when she knocks you back act surprised when your current girlfriend decides to give you the flick.

I think they're doing the right thing with Suarez, we don't want to get into the situation of gaining a reputation where players think they can sign lucrative long term contracts with us and then act like they don't exist. They need to keep their poker face on and sell on their terms, not Suarez's. I've outlined before why I don't think there's any danger of him going on strike this season, if he really wants to play for a club challenging for the CL and league titles and he doesn't get that move this summer then it would be suicidal for him to pull a Tevez because none of those clubs would want to go near him.
