OK. This is how I understand Suarez. Agreed(ish) but Sanchez needs to be talked to. Will happen, will rumble on bit. Fed up with it already

Sanchez is being rushed back from his holiday...

In break before the match I'll try to explain thinking on Suarez as it was told to me. It'll be series of tweets don't take out of context

Tony Evans @TonyEvansTimes · 8m
1) There was a clause last year, JWH stood tough and dared Suarez camp to call in lawyers. Determined no to let him go

Tony Evans @TonyEvansTimes · 7m
2) Money would not have been as much use last summer. Not in CL so have to spend it on non-CL players. Needed Suarez to get top four

Tony Evans @TonyEvansTimes · 7m
3) New deal was built around cast-iron get-out clause. If it was triggered, then he was gone

Tony Evans @TonyEvansTimes · 6m
4) Negotiations had started before WC. Bite had little effect on anything. Feeling is, though, Suarez walking accident ready to happen

Tony Evans @TonyEvansTimes · 5m
5) Sale not such a blow now because money can be spent on CL-type players this summer. Good players want to come

Tony Evans @TonyEvansTimes · 4m
6) If they can get Sanchez, good. But it depends if he wants to come. He doesn't want to leave Barca. He's on holiday

Tony Evans @TonyEvansTimes · 3m
6) Suarez money won't be spent on main stand but on players. Main stand money ring-fenced in spring by FSG

He is probably one major offence from a 6 month - 1 year ban over here, expected it to be more than £63m though.

[Locke.]

It's not £63m

[Brother Leon]

Sanchez isn't going to go to Liverpool when they are selling Suarez

He will be at Arsenal.

Phewww

[Novo]

Can't believe they are willing to pay 80mil for him

[Achilles]

I am hoping for Centurion Vidal and General Hummels

Agreed. I think Arsenal will suit his style of play more.

[Brother Leon]

Sources from Italy say united are put off by Juve wanting 45m and Nani for Vidal. If this is true then that is terrible by us

[Shaun]

That's a bit of an OTT price tbf

[Brother Leon]

For the best midfielder in the world? It's more than fair.

[Achilles]

Bad deal. Already spent over the odds on Fellaini, Shaw and Ander Herrera. Why can't we get some top quality players who are more under the radar to even it up a bit. There is plenty of quality out there available for good price.

We need quality. If you want quality you will have to spend. Nani does not cost any more than 10m. Hell we has to beg Galatasary to take him and they refused. If we can get the best Midfielder in football for 45m and a player who's time at United is finished then you take it.

[Locke.]

Great signing

[Black Dagger]

He looks a bit tubby tbf, are we sure he can run?

[Locke.]

Darren Ambrose got 6 goals in 11 games in the Greek league last season, I'm sure the fat guy could get himself a couple as well

LVG might get Nani playing at his best again and Nani at his best is our best winger. He supposedly blocked a Nani transfer. Vidal might not be as good playing in the Premier League with different players. I think it's very high risk so prefer if we just sign Vidal for £35million or so. Expensive yes, but easier to deal with if it all goes tits up

[Brother Leon]

You won't buy Vidal's laces for 35m

[Drew.]

The Chileans are now convinced Sanchez will be an Arsenal player, it all seems too good to be true

[Samuel.]

I never don't get why fans get caught up with the transfer fees. Nobody but the the businessmen know how much they're willing to spend. What even is £40m with no context. It's not Football Manager.

Same applied to the Lallana purchase. 15m or 25m, how likely is it that the transfer budget would be exactly hit regardless, what impact does that extra 10m really have. None of us know.

Be happy to be potentially signing top players, regardless of the arbitrary figure next to it.

[Drew.]

I think its more when a high figure fee for a player is announced people automatically compare it to other players who are around the same price. If £25m for Lallana is true then that's almost the price Sanchez is going for and Sanchez is on a different level so it then seems overpriced.

[Locke.]

Lallana was £16m, Bournemouth only receoved £4m and they had a 25% sell on clause

This point, which is said a lot by many, makes no sense.

It can be applied to every single player who is currently abroad and is linked with a Premier League team. Also applied to the likes of Aguero, Suarez, Ozil and more.

Heck, you can even apply the different players part with any player who plays in England.

I guess we buy nobody then.

[Ryan57]

Didn't realise Abidal moved due to Monaco refusing to sign Valdes.

Now United and Arsenal have been linked with him.

Seattle Sounders' DeAndre Yedlin has reportedly signed with AS Roma according to Greg Seltzer. He's staying with Seattle on loan for the rest of the season and might get loaned to another Italian side after.
