Ok going by LFC fans Suarez logic -
Benteke has had one good season from 1 in the EPL.
Suarez has had one good season from 2 and a half in the EPL.
Benteke is younger.
Benteke is bigger.
Benteke doesn't bite people and disgrace himself and his club on a regular basis.
Benteke dominated for a terrible team, Suare.... well that's a similarity.
On that basis, and using the Liverpool fans assessment of Suarez worth I declare a sum of 1 billion dollars for Benteke.

You have to remember that the biggest club in the world wants Suarez and NOT Benteke

And my definition of Galactico especially from when they were doing it 10 years ago was signing the best player in the world in the position. Which Suarez isn't.
He aint a Galactico.
Unfortunately for Madrid I don't think Messi would be keen on a move to the Bernabeu, while Falcao had his heart set on a move to the Riviera and Atletico would never have sold him to Real in any case. Looking at the next rung of centre forwards; Lewandowski's off to Munich and RVP has just joined United so Suarez is the best available!

Bale probably will sell for more than Suarez but it won't be because he's actually worth more in real terms or is necessarily a better footballer. And as I've said previously, if you're going to be criticizing Suarez for supposedly only having 1 good season in his career (apparently his 50+ goal 2009/10 season at Ajax and his similarly impressive record for his country over the last 4 years is irrelevant?) then the same criticism must be levelled at Bale who prior to 2012/13 has managed hauls of 10, 7 and 3 goals in his previous 3 seasons (interestingly far less than an 'underperforming' Suarez managed over the same period).

If Higuain goes to Juve I'd back them to make the final of the champions league next season. Fixes the one weakness Juve have.

Definitely up there, I love Cavani. Superb scoring record but I've watched a lot of Uruguays matches over the last few years and it's no coincidence that he always plays 2nd fiddle to Suarez who has been the real driving force behind their recent success.
