Very disappointing


Just seen this as well.

Very disappointing from the club, Suarez looked one of the few who may have been able to make it.

I thought it was the main aim of the club to bring guys like him through... hmmmmm


playing for barcelona b has to be better than playing in the eds. personally, i doubt that he'll ever make an appearance for their first team proper though. hope for his sake i'm proved wrong....

having second teams that play at a decent level week in week out is why the spanish, dutch, germans have such good production lines of young talent. the fa should take note

I agree, we should be loaning the lad out though. A championship club would bite our hand off.

Annoyed by this if it happens, i think he will be a top draw player.

I said after his showing in the pre season game, that both him & Razak had been handed a big chance & showed nothing. Put Peter Barnes, Paul Lake, even David White at the same age in the same situation & we would have been talking about little else.

This season has to be 1st team, loan, or sell re Suarez. He's shown nothing to put him ahead of the other younger kids regarding the first team, & if it's a choice between being on loan at Grimsby, then probably released/sold or moving to Barca, which would you prefer ?

He has to play or go somewhere.

Check out hte kid playing No 17 for Portugal U19s & then pick which one you would rather see on our bench.

I won't be bothered if Suarez goes. Granted, he hasn't been given too many opportunities but every time I've seen him play (for us or for Spain UXX-team he has failed to impress/really make his mark on the game. Just some neat moves here and there - showing potential.. but no more yet

also, his new manager has also seen him so if San Pellegrino felt he is that important, he wouldn't be allowed to leave (permanently)

That was inevitable for spurs - poor business by levy as it gives them very little time in the market & most deals are done at this point - should have happened much earlier in the summer

But if they get £85m for him they'd be laughing all the way to the bank. Good player, great maybe, but not worth that.

Love if they sign Bale, let”s see then where this fucker will play after the monkey will go to Madrid, when they still have Di Maria, Ozil, Modric and Kaka (Ancelotti will play him more than ever).

On the other hand, heard some crazy rumours about us getting Sergio Sánchez, the center back of Malaga.

Liverpool bidding for Atleti's Diego Costa. I guess they don't mind controversy as he got suspended for headbutting. He dives, he spits, he elbows.

He was also accused of racism by a Seville player who was sent off for stamping on him in reaction to what he said. Should fit right in.

Real will blow FFP out of the water if they sign Bale and Suarez (and Isco for ~25m and Illaramendi for 30m) even if they did sell Higuain, Albiol, and Callejon for ~50m.

I don't think they have anything to worry about for a slew of reasons.
