That's not incompetence, that's thinking they'd be doing enough to satisfy a legal clause in Suarez' contract.

yeah I know, but I think they negative PR did more damage than offering say £45M

Does that sound likely? Regardless of how incompetent you think Arsenal are, do you really think they'd up their offer by £900,000?

yes

That's not incompetence, that's thinking they'd be doing enough to satisfy a legal clause in Suarez' contract.

And that one went brilliantly for us didn't it... another we could have signed if Arsene hadn't been such a monumental tight arse.

[jammy-git]

You could have offered £90m, we would never have sold to one of our direct rivals.

You're a selling club, its just how many ££ in the equation, direct rival or not

Barcelona had to sell Neymar - every club is a selling club, as you say its the £ that differs

I suspect Liverpool would rather have sold Suarez to Spain for 70 than Arsenal for 75 though

FSG have said numerous times we won't sell our best players to our direct PL rivals. Even when we sold Torres he was well past his best.

Sterling (in both senses) would suggest otherwise?

I don't think Sterling was one of our best players. One of our best prospects yes, but the summer we sold him came after a very average season for him.

Have you not been watching him this season ?

Other than the game against Liverpool he's been superb all season.

If this is it, I'm hearing Ozil will be joining Sanchez at Manyoo.

Auba deal agreed aparently. However Dortmund want to sign his replacement before they shake hands.

Arsenal getting a dose of their own medicine?
