Suarez bite v2

[Captain]

Can we challenge for the title w/o Suarez?

 

Impending post title.

Not next season, we won't.

[Aldonose]

Logic says their is a clause. I reckon it's in Barcelona's interest to get Sanchez involved. Every decent Journo is saying we want him, and if that's the case it would give them a fair bit of leverage in negotiations.

[Mathewbet1]

We've offered Sanchez 150k a week. Hes on 75k at barca.

[Babb'sBurstNad]

If they're willing to meet the clause, then the hold up is either us wanting to see if we can get Sanchez before breaking the bad news of Suarez' exit, or we're just haggling over the payment plan. I hope it's not the latter.

[Phoenix]

If there is a clause, there is nothing to negotiate, Barca can pay the clause value upfront and fuck off.

 

Sanchez doesn't want to join us. He would rather go to Arsenal or Juve.

Hopefully Juve if he doesn't come here.

We are probably still negotiating the payment structure and trying to ascertain whether Sanchez wants to come.

 

I don't see why people are convinced he doesn't want to. Unless you were just being generally pessimistic of course, in which case I'm happy to join you.

[Jairzinho]

Juventus I can understand. Arsenal, not so much.

[Major Tom]

London and a massive paypacket would be my guess.

 

But, I think we're still in with a shot. Hopefully.

That is what is being reported by TV3 the Catalan channel. 

 

Barca need the money in the bank before they agree to pay us for Suarez.

Yeah, I don't get "London". He's lived in Calama and Udine.

[Major Tom]

Yeah, it's a good point! I dunno, then. I am sure we can match the money.

 

What do your Chilean contacts say?

 

Mine are too busy cooking.

 

Bloody Chileans and their food.

I'll ring my nan, hang on...

[Iceman]

We should offer to pay him in hair gel and short shorts. He'd probably go for it.

[Phoenix]

Apparently Sanchez has refused to talk to us about a transfer.

 

We should insist the sum stated in the clause for Suarez is paid upfront.

We need to play hard ball with these cunts.

Portuguese custard tart?

[Bjornebye]

We do mate but we wont. Dry bummed as usual

[s(k)aturation]

I know I'm stupid... but, if we don't get exactly what we want, we don't have to sell him, right?

Where has this come from please?

So more guess work?

 

Sanchez obviously has options, he's obviously considering them, I highly doubt he would point blank refuse discussions of any kind.

 

I doubt he'll agree to come to us but the fact we're publicly in discussions with his current club says to me we're in the mix.

 

Sanchez probably doesn't want to leave Barca so will be trying to stay or get a fat pay off to move. His team of advisors would be incompetent if they weren't leaking stories to get him the best deal from any party.

Would an article in the echo suggest its all guesswork?

[magicrat]

What the papers say we want or the value of the release clause is not what we will accept,

Similarly Barca will pay more than the headline number papers are reported they are prepared to pay ."Realistic expectations on both sides" is the only credible quote we have had from the club. That screams we will meet in the middle to me. The rest has been scribblers filling copy. I think we should cut the club some slack on this. The decision in principle has been made to sell Suarez and its going to take some major backsliding by Barca now to prevent the deal going through. We don't know the details of what led to the decision to sell, Maybe we had an agreement with the player to let him have a smooth exit if he shut up and signed his new contract, maybe the latest biting incident prompted that decision, maybe he was just becoming too toxic and high maintenance . None of us know and the truth is probably a combination of these factors and others we have no idea about.  If I had to guess the hold u is for Barca to work on Sanchez and raise the finances .

What I believe is that they would keep Suarez if they realistically could and this decision has not been easy

[Aldonose]

Regardless of Sanchez coming here or not, it would be extremely negligent to say the least if we didn't have a pretty extensive list of players in mind with the money received from his transfer. I reckon we've known for some time that he's off this summer.
