We could have a front 3 of Suarez, Costa and Aspas. The press are going to hate us. Bring back Mascherano. And Souness!

We could have a front 3 of Suarez, Costa and Aspas. Obv this can't happen. One of them will always be suspended.

weird as in he is an old fashioned type striker almost a target/battering ram
as discussed he is a massive hot head and if he retains his antics from last season over here he will not last many 90 minutes
price quoted seems high to me good player though

Agree with all the above and well overpriced at the reported 21m money better spent elsewhere

I have thought about this a bit more
Does Rodgers have sole control over transfers? I just cant see this being 100% his idea

I think we've missed that sort of striker at Liverpool. Obviously, Carroll was brought in to be that sort of striker, but that didn't work out too well. I guess we're not looking to win the fair play award this season...

Whilst I agree he has this about his game I really don't see him in this mould. He's not an out and out CF and loves being on the ball in deeper lying positions. He's overpriced (we have to meet a clause obv) but he's not an old skool battering ram English style centre forward at all.

Have to disagree there tbh Scored 70% of his goals last season with his head, is a real trier and plays well ahead of his years in terms of niggly fouls e.t.c Only really dropped deep for Madrid because Falcao was parading the box

He's more Fellaini than big Dunc. He's got a decent first touch and a good passing range. Not at all a target man (I don't think he's ever been played as one) whilst obviously good in the air.

Suarez talking about legal action now. Is this guy the biggest div to ever play football? Take the 40 million and run.

Apparently Diego Costa might give him a run for his money, be nice to see them play together. Albeit I presume it will be a case of playing one while the other is suspended type of thing.

Is Suarez? Or are the newspapers just stirring it all up as usual?
I believe he has already written off arbitration. Seems a very sudden turnaround.
