    Suarez is UNBELIEVABLE!

    Undoubtedly the best player in the Premiership at the moment. BR annoys me slightly however, should have took him off at HT and rested him for the weekend.

    Its about to get interesting at the top Arsenal face Everton, City and Chelsea if they come through them games with 9 points surely there is no stopping them?

    On the flip side United 12 behind are they out of it yet?

    They were out of it months ago in my opinion, I don’t rate Moyes at all and I don’t rate half their first time; Cleverley, Fellaini, Young, Welbeck, Smalling and etc… 

    They will never challenge for the title again playing Fellaini and Giggs/Cleverley in centre midfield. 

    I’d be distraught if Suarez leaves, who else in world football can do what he does? I once heard he nutmegged a mermaid back in Uruguay. He’s irreplaceable and selling him will cost LFC 25+ goals a season and the assits, chances created, key passes, set pieces, devastating runs and the list is endless.

    I can only see Madrid being interested and having the funds to buy Suarez, the question is, if Madrid were silly enough to pay silly money for Bale then how much is Suarez worth in comparison? £150m? £200m? I wouldn’t worry about him playing through half time, he’s resilient and thrives from getting a good amount of minutes.

    I’d have Arsenal ahead of City at the end of the season, especially if they take points of them. Arsenal do lack a striker they’ve been accustomed with in the past; Henry, RVP, Wright and Bergkamp. I’d expect a forward to be Wengers top target, Costa or Benzema would be likely suitors. I do think that in a months time the league will be even closer then it is now though.

    Talksport reporting that Suarez will not be moving in January, unfortunately I think he will go at the end of the season, with Benzema going to Arsenal as you mentioned and Costa coming to Liverpool (Wasn’t there some agreement for this in the summer just gone?).

    We met Costa’s release clause but he rejected and signed a long-term deal with Athletico and has been on fire this season. Hope JWH sticks to his guns and rejects offers for Suarez unless they’re like £80m region. Arsenal will surely bid for Benzema in January, probably 30m-40m should see him come to London just depends on him but with them flying and Ozil already there seems set to happen.

    Luis Suarez has more goals then:

    Tottenham
    Hull City
    Stoke City
    Cardiff City
    Norwich City
    West Ham
    Fulham
    Crystal Palace
    Sunderland

    :shock:

    And those teams have had

    eleven players on the pitch and an extra five games!

    Brilliant results today, we stuffed West Ham 4-1 whilst Chelsea lose away to the dreaded Stoke and City drew against Southampton and the biggest result of the day Manchester United 0-1 Newcastle. I think Moyes was right when he said the fans are behind him; Liverpool fans, Arsenal fans, Chelsea fans and City fans. Hopefully Spurs continue their shocking form and Sunderland win and if Everton draw against Arsenal would cap off a perfect weekend. :mrgreen:

    Some of the stuff Suarez does is unbelievable, he just puts so much fear in defenders.

    The goal against Norwich last week when he took the ball down about 35 or 40 yards out, was an awkward ball too, soon as he got it on the ground the defenders needed a change of underwear!

    He’s a phenomenal talent, I’m not sure even achieving Champions League qualification will be enough to keep him at Anfield unfortunately :(

    Need to improve away form big time but a good weekend to be a Liverpool fan as you say, the Gerrard injury apart.

    The Gerrard knock is a big concern, we have no cover for a player like SG, such is his class. We do have mongs like Allen and co but nowhere near his level so hope it’s a matter of weeks rather then months.

    All four goals on Wednesday were unbelievable and each had the stamp of a world class player. His free-kick ability is second to none, the one in the Mersyside derby was through the eye of a needle accuracy.

    I hear talk that a long-term deal is already in motion with JWH and Rodgers keen to offer him a big weekly paycheck for his services. Currently has two and a half years left so a five year contract could push his transfer value up by around 20% or give us a few more years of his magic. I’d take the years of magic over the money but until I hear it from Sky Sports News or liverpoolfc.com it’s just rumours.

    I’m looking forward to LFC doing over spurs, I hate that club nearly as much as United.

    The arm biting racist is a flat track bully who goes missing when it matters or when he has his next meltdown, the scousers will be their own downfall but it won’t be their fault, nothing ever is.

    United fans will be contemplating the cost of rail fare increases from Surrey to Manchester in the new year once the realisation kicks in that their team is just average and without the Fergie factor mid-table mediocrity and disappointing results aplenty are their future as well as the loss of European earnings. Let’s hope the Glazers bail out soon leaving them to do a ‘Rangers’.

    Spuds have shown they were batting above their average only because of the Bale factor and without him they will be back to mid table obscurity with Thursday night football just a vague memory even after AVB did £100 million on missing anonymous people, he needs directions to the job centre, soon. St Totteringham’s day will be coming early as usual this season.

    Chelski and Abu Dhabi City are the main challengers to the title this year, City having a bottomless wallet and huge squad of top class scorers going for them and Chelski with the Jose factor and luck going for them, consistency could be their undoing though.

    As the skysports pundits keep saying, nobody else is in it.

    "it won’t be their fault, nothing ever is."

    Is that a sick, sadistic reference to Hillsborough?

    He may be an arm biting racist but anyone would rather have Suarez then Giroud and Bendter. LOL’s. Only someone with absolutely no knowledge about football would discredit Luis Suarez this season.

    Come back when you’ve got

    FIVE European cups

    and

    EIGHTEEN titles

    , till then you’re still a selling club with who’s won nought, nothing, zilch, not a scrap in the last

    NINE years.

    Great weekend for Liverpool, but it will all come to nothing if we don’t beat Spurs next Sunday. For me that and the Cardiff game at Anfield must be both won, as the likelihood is we will get nothing in the next two away to Chelsea and City(especially if Gerrard is out.)

    Not heard an update on Gerrard or Henderson injuries? But if there both out and we turn up at the lane with a Central Midfield partnership of Lucas and Joe Allen I can see it being a long 90 minutes! Did Rodgers make a mistake letting Shelvey go? I personally think he did.

    Know it was mentioned in one of the papers but a move for Yohan Cabaye in the window is a must for me, along with another striker. Think their may be a lot of interest in Cabaye with PSG and United also going in for him though.

    Arsenal’s bottle is about to be seriously tested, I think Wenger will be disappointed with a draw today.

    As a Liverpool fan I hate to say it but I think United are worth a punt at 33/1, yes Moyes is having a torrid time, but in the past Moyes’s Everton finished well as do United generally.

    United’s next 5 Games:

    Villa (A)
    Stoke (A)
    West Ham (H)
    Hull (A)
    Norwich (A)

    I expect they’ll win all them games, and with the big teams all clashing they could get back to within about 7 points of the top. I imagine you’d be able to lay them off them at around 5,6,7/1.

    Liverpool have never managed to replace Xabi Alonso. The trio of Alonso, Mascherano and Gerrard were a world class midfield. Unfortunately there is nobody of that calibre there at the moment.

    The silver lining to the Sturridge injury is that there will be three in midfield which is important against the top teams. They were overrun against Arsenal with two there. If they’re going to get anything out of the City and Chelsea games I think Suarez will nee to produce some more magic!

    Liverpool need a Mascherano / Hamann type more than anything imo.

    Gerrard out for 6 weeks. With Sturridge already out thats a major major blow. A few of the mediocre players in midfield need to now step up. Its one thing relying on Suarez to do something magic but he still needs service for that.

    No, not at all, but I can understand a Liverpool fan for thinking so. After all it wasn’t their fault they trampled each other, it was the police’s fault for saying "don’t do that" loud enough and stopping them, them Italians, it was their fault they were trampled because ‘they should not have been the other side of the wall in their home stadium’. Ey ey, calm down…

    Never mind, just add up all those premier league titles you’ve won recently….

    One man team and he wants out.
