Higuain is the Superior Striker, thats what we need, have you seen how many miss Suarez has. We missed put on hiiggy cause we tryed to cheap out, if we had offered 25mill from the start we would have signed him.

Suarez has so little quality around him at Liverpool. When he is playing with Wilshere and Cazorla and Walcott he will have more room to operate. Teams won't be able to focus on him so singlehandedly like they do now. He will be able to do a lot more damage.

Exactly, the bloke is one indiscretion from a 20+ Game Ban. But to be fair no one has offered what Liverpool want yet, 40mill just triggers a clause, where Liverpool have to tell Luis about the Bid. Liverpool have already set 50mill as the Price minimum

As AusKnightRKO says, you missed out on Higuain over a few million, before Napoli came along and were prepared to pay even more. Now you want to pay almost double what Madrid originally wanted on Higuain for Suarez? Good work BM :lol:

Wenger will be able to control Suarezs discipline problems while still getting his best on the field.

And boxhead, Madrid wanted 25, we were willing to pay 25, their hesitating gave Napoli time to offer 37. That is silly money. 40-50 million for Suarez is not silly money.

You are a grade A Clown, you realize this right? Wenger isn't the greatest manager to ever live, he isn't going to turn Suarez from a Diving, Grubby Hannibal Clone, into a Born again Christian.

50 Mill for a bloke that is already on a long Suspension , and one more stupid move away from being gone for 20+ Games. IS not stupid money, its down right Fkn geniused.

if this bloke is so great why did his club finish 8th, 9th or wherever they were. RVP took a terrible team to 3rd.

Tone take your Bayern glasses off, if Mario Gomez was so great he wouldn't be plying is trade in Serie A, with a Eurpoa League Club.

Dunno what a Spurs fan is doing laughing at Arsenal missing out a on player because of a "few million".

Being a Madrid fan too (somehow) i'm guessing you know the details of what happened. You asked for a price. We said yep. You (Madrid) went away and came back asking for more. And you (Madrid) ended up selling him for 32. We agreed on 23. 9 million pounds isn't a "few million".

How many players have you guys (i'm talking about Spurs now) missed out on cause Levy didn't wanna cough up a couple of mill. Hell, you (still Spurs) ended up stuck with geniuss like Defoe and Adebayor because Levy didn't want to offer that little bit more for someone like Damiao.

I hate Suarez, and him playing for us won't change that. But he's a better player than Higuain. And if Wenger would rather spend 40-50 mill on Suarez than 32 on Higuain then i trust him.

Its not a matter of Levy wont pay the extra few million, its a matter of we cant afford the extra few million

Missing out on UCL and having a much smaller stadium restricts our spending which is why the new stadium is on the way

Cheers for reading my post.
Did you miss the part where I said "Higuain for 25 million" (which is what Arsenal would have gotten him for) and "Suarez for 50 million"? :roll: Missing out by a few extra million is fine if you don't think the player is worth it, but seriously, you are going to be paying double what Higuain would have cost you for a player that is arguably inferior. Do you not see thus why BM's posts are laughable? Even if Higuain would have cost you guys the same as Napoli, you don't see the irony in now going for a player that could cost you a boat load more?

Suarez will be as little as 40 million.

Higuain was not available for 25 because we offered 25 and they waited until another bidded up the price. We never getting Higuain for less than 30. And Suarez is looking in the bag at 40.

Noone in their right mind thinks Higuain is better than Suarez.

What part of "50 million plus" don't you understand? Liverpool won't be talked down; they hold the cards as Suarez's buy-out-clause doesn't really help Arsenal at all. But no, 40 million it is :lol::lol::lol:

Some do, I don't care personally and I'm not one of them. But would I take Suarez for 50 million or Higuain for 32 million, I would take Higuain every time as the extra 18 million would afford you someone like Paulinho (for example).

Please.

You sold Modric for 30 plus. What happened to all of that?

It's not like you've got a stadium to pay off.

How would we have got him for 25? He was sold for 32. It was reported you asked for 23 and we agreed on it. Then you went back and asked for over 30.


Missing out by a few extra million is fine if you don't think the player is worth it, but seriously, you are going to be paying double what Higuain would have cost you for a player that is arguably inferior.

Come on bud. Get those white tinted glasses off, (i guess you have two pairs of those ;-)), as a player Suarez is better than Higuain. You won't find me arguing what Suarez is like as a person though.

Do you not see thus why BM's posts are laughable?

I'm not defending Bunniesman, i'm defending Arsenal.

Even if Higuain would have cost you guys the same as Napoli, you don't see the irony in now going for a player that could cost you a boat load more?

No i don't, because there isn't any there. Wenger obviously sees Suarez for 40-50 mill as a better deal than Higuain for 32. It's obviously a risky move because we may not even end up with him, but that's how he's decided to do things this window. He's played it safe for almost a decade, it's about time he took some risks. Paying 32 million wasn't the problem. Paying 32 million for Higuain was.

It's that sort of thinking that lead you guys to buying average players like Adebayor, Sigurdson and Dempsey and not going for a decent striker. You could've spent that 10-13 mill on someone like Damiao.

It's impossible to tell at this stage if he's made the right decision or not.
