£100m+.
What is Luis Suarez worth?
- Thread starter Donaldo
- Start date
He will go in summer and I don't think anyone can criticise him for wanting to leave Liverpool in order to play with the best players in the world.
We can reject the offer... exactly the same thing we did in the summer...
That's because the club didn't get an offer they felt justified for the release of the player. Real come in with anything north of 70m and he's off.
Not a chance. No player is worth that amount of money! It has been silly season for transfer fees, ridiculous amounts of money spent and now banded about for player values.
Not in January.
We valued him at £60-70m before the season... His value will have only increased.
That kind of value is way too inflated for me. Not just saying this in terms of Suarez but other sums that have been paid in the last off-season and the last 2/3 years. No player is worth that amount.
Actually think he'll still be at Anfield this time next year.
He'll definitely stay until the end of season and if they make top 4 (and I reckon they will) he could probably remain there for another year.
The club massively overvalued him in the summer but now that he's on such a roll his value will again be massively overvalued. But all it takes is the player to dig in and the club will have to eventually accept. Suarez was in no valid position to demand an out and stick to his guns with the suspension looming; also helps Real courted Bale because they could easily have gone for Suarez and got him.
Potentially coming off a splendid World Cup and domestic campaign, Suarez will force a move if he desires. This assuming Real don't come in with some massive offer in January and turn his head instantly.
I understand the difficulty for LFC fans to accept, but the club simply can't keep hold of him. Just like Bale at Spurs, Suarez is now bigger than LFC. He's gone by next summer no doubt.
Highly unlikely that he will leave in January. However, for Liverpool, top 4 is absolutely crucial to retain him beyond summer. If they stay in top 4, they can persuade him to stay by offering a big contract and a promise to build team around him. Even with top 4, you can guarantee big clubs hovering around for him by offering silly money in summer. If they don't get top 4, then it is almost impossible he will stay.
What is your top four?
Even if they do make top four, if Real want him enough it will be bye bye from big teeth
I think the same teams will remain in the top 4 although in a different order.
Let's hope you are wrong.
I think Gerrard has let the cat out of the bag that we should enjoy him while he's here. Can't see him staying even if we win the league. But he can sit on the bench if Real offer anything less than 90-100m.
Can see a saga coming up, one that will eventually make us incredibly rich.

Gerrard called him the best player in the world on current form. He can't really think he's better than Ronaldo, can he?
He's tearing this league up much like Ronaldo and Messi have been doing to la liga for years. Got to say he's the 3rd best in the world now. He looks to have stopped with the cnutish side of his game too slightly, now watch him do something daft over the xmas period, because unless he does then Liverpool are going to continue winning games and scoring lots of goals.
Just don't do a Spurs...
All this talk about best right now is illogical. If welbeck scored 10 goals in a game next week, would that make him the best player in the world that day or week?
Let Suarez continue this run for a whole season at least before he enters any such discussion. If his form tapers off, he may not even be the best in league.
He said it today or you are mentioning old quote because I remember Gerrard saying similar earlier as well?
He is right though. It will be very difficult for you guys to hold him for very long. As we found it in CR's case, even winning league and consecutive CL finals wasn't enough and Suarez is entering his prime and he will want to ply his trade at highest level and surrounded by equally big players. Right now, when he has off game, Liverpool look very average and there is a limit till which he can carry team. Not saying other guys are shit, some of them like Coutniho are very good, but they are supporting acts.
It would have to take a real dip in form for that to happen. Even if he doesn't score in the next 6 games, he will still be with 17 goals in 17 games which is still a goal a game. The way I see it, I believe he can break the goalscoring record for the premier league easily. In fact, he is half way there at the moment, and there are another 22 games to go, which is pretty frightening. He could get 40 goals in the league.
In the madness of the current market then we're talking world record fee. He's an incredible footballer.
Let's wait for the season to end before the happens. When Van Persie had his purple patch last season, many on here claimed that he was as good as Ronaldo. That did not last.
No-one is talking about Ronaldo here though. It is about Suarez. Let us face facts, Suarez is doing this all on his own with the sort of players you might find playing for a mid-table side so, at least give credit where credit is almost certainly due. Another thing, RVP had many quality players around him, and not the likes of Allen, Henderson or even Lucas whom we have all ridiculed on this site.
I'd want more than what Bale went for. It's just not going to happen due to Bale being sold for ridiculously more than he was worth.
If he keeps up playing this way the Spaniards will grab him in the summer and Liverpool wont be able to do much about it.
Reject the offer. Simple.
I think you're in to something here. If only we knew that all we had to do was reject Real Madrid's offer for Ronaldo. Pity poor old Spurs didn't know that either, Bale would still be banging them in for them too.
If he is enjoying his football which looks as though he is, then I doubt he will go to Spain. If Liverpool want to sell then, they would obviously want something in exchange plus money. Plus I don't think they would want Benzema since he is a bit average. They cannot have Ronaldo and Bale so, that leaves who?
Madrid have made a problem for themselves! My overpaying for Bale, if they want Suarez who is far better, they'll have to go higher.Silly twats! If I were Liverpool there would be a £100 million price tag on Suarez! Not saying he's worth it but that what the going rate is and it is becoming quite ridiculous.Makes Arsenals £40 million bid look more ridiculous than our opening bid for Fabregas!
Henderson has been quality for last few games. But yeah I agree that Suarez is largely propping up an average Liverpool side. He has not produced the same lebel of performance against big teams yet though, two big games coming up for Pool. Let's see how he does against Chelsea and City.
Yes, I agree, but whatever happens against Chelsea or Manchester City, he will always get that one chance like every other striker in the Premier league. When Drogba broke the record for a 38 game season, it was because they he had a top supporting cast. When Ronaldo equalled it, he had superior teammates. Love him or hate him, Suarez is doing really well in spite of the resources he has at hand. No Sturridge, no Gerrard and he has had to rely on Henderson who has been ridiculed on this board. Yes, Henderson has been good this season and will probably go to Brazil next year.
I said he was better than bale last season too. Madrid signed the wrong premier league star.
Personally, given the choice I still wouldn't have him anywhere near our club.
The support he has is better than what Rooney and rvp have been getting at united. Wee have better players but they play better football which is what matters. His support this season has been great.
If Madrid want Suarez they will get him. It might be in January, July or even the year after but Madrid will get their player. It's just the matter of how much it's going to cost them.
