    Are Arsenal even technically in the Champions League yet

    It would be pretty funny if Suarez signed and they lost the play-off.

    Still don't think he'll go ftr. They'd sell to anyone else but surely not Arsenal.

    Depending on the result of this whole court/clause thing they might not have a choice

    I'd say the odds of Suarez (& Guardiola) being a whiny little bitch about the clause are much higher than Liverpool just flat out lying about what it is.

    Don't suppose Brennys got any news conferences lined up?
     
  7. Eds E Ames

    Liverpool released his Norway news conference about ten minutes before the Telegraph released their Suarez exclusive. Reckon they knew it was coming.
     
  8. 99* JJ Ritchie

    Doesn't sound like it's a part of his contract imo. Just some verbal agreement. So he can't really rely on that getting him out.
     
  9. Furball G Furball

    Yes. The final qualifying round is the first proper round of the Champions League.
     
  10. Uppercut CB Faldo

    I posted a Sid Lowe article about release clauses in here a while back. He reckons they're basically informal agreements and in reality it would cost a fortune in taxes and fees to even try to activate them with a hostile bid, and it might not even hold up in court.

    He's on a long contract, they can always ship him out somewhere for a year on loan and hope he likes it.

    Well that's stupid.

    UEFA. :toot:

    It's for eligibility reasons i think. To stop a player helping a team into the CL through qualifying only to be sold and play for another team in the CL proper.

    Haven't cup-tied rules completely changed anyway? Nothing before the end of the window counts after it closes.
     
  14. Furball G Furball

    Nope. You can only play for one club before January and you can't play for 2 clubs in the same competition.
     
  15. Verigoat S Verigotta

    Barca going for DAgger aparantly, would Liverpool turn down like 17mil or whatever they were offering?
     
  16. Eds E Ames

    Yes.
     
  17. Verigoat S Verigotta

    But think of all the young Spanish bottom half of La Liga talent he could buy with that

    Downing undergoing a medical at West Ham. £8m apparently. Yep, £8m.
