So after everything Suarez has put Liverpool through the past couple of seasons, he decides to maybe take them to court?

Utter douche.

Then again, it is quite funny.

Didn't expect anything less. He's the bottom of the barrel...
 
I don't see why Suarez can't take them to court, it would seem to most people who are capable of thinking about it without bias... that no player would ever want a clause which allowed them to talk to a club after a certain offer, but not have that offer excepted. It is 100% useless, so the situation becomes, did Liverpool fiddle the wording slightly so at a fairly normal glance you would assume it to be a completely standard release clause. Later on when someone offers it, you read it and realise that its writen in a way that doesn't say they have to accept the offer, just let the player talk to the club.

As said no player EVER would gain anything at all in any way by a release clause where the fee doesn't actually trigger a "release". So I would say a player has absolutely ever right to take their club to court and let the courts decide if the club misled and/or changed the contract to be purposefully misleading about a common clause.

The question is did Suarez and his agent agree and sign to the clause as it is now in full knowledge, or did they assume it was a "normal" release clause because they would have entirely no reason to believe it would be a "release clause" without any release in it. The other question is did Liverpool purposefully mislead Suarez and his agent with an intentionally convoluted clause intending to mislead, or maybe more importantly, will the courts believe they did.

It's a strange situation for an Arsenal fan that hates and doesn't want Suarez, he's not worth 30mil currently, if the courts upheld the contract and we didn't buy him, great, if they upheld it and it meant we upped our offer to 50-55mil to get him... booooo, if they say the contract is bogus I can only hope Real decide to step in and match our bid to stop him joining Arsenal.

They are actually reporting something without any direct quotes. He has always been able to consider a transfer request

The latest story has originated from the Mirror, and Arsenal man John Cross, the guy is desperate for him to join them (which is strange as he was one of the worst human beings in the world according to them prior to Arsenal sniffing around)

why do the media need to remind us 24 hours before the media coverage of Gerrard's testimonial....hmmmm?

The media would like nothing better for him to be booed, think of the juicy headlines they could have fun with.

I haven't seen any Suarez quotes since the confed cup.

Because he doesn't really want to move to Arsenal, that's why they are no quotes. He has more chance of winning trophies with us, more chance of winning the CL too ;). Also if RM don't want him this season (rumors are they are in touch with him) he has more chance of moving next season staying with us too.

(Still think if they bid 55mill we will accept)
 
Spurs set to break even on 30-year-old forward.

According to MLSsoccer.com’s Seattle Sounders writer, the MLS club are set to pay Spurs $9m (around £6m) for forward Clint Dempsey.

Jeremiah Oshan said the Sounders were the only club willing to meet Spurs’ asking price for the USA international, who is set to become the Sounders’ third Designated Player.

Dempsey arrived at White Hart Lane from Fulham for £6m on August deadline day last summer, and scored five Premier League goals in 29 appearances last term, including home and away strikes against eventual champions Manchester United.


Can confirm Dempsey deal. Sounders apparently only team willing to pay $9m transfer fee.

glad we make our cash back but he scored some very important goals for us. if this goes through though i wont be too gutted.
 
Dempsey was such an infuriating playeer- he took us to ecstasy with the important goals he scored then did sweet FA for most of the rest of the match.

It is probably a good deal all round though, I think Siggy and Holtby are the ones to keep for the future and we are overloaded with midfielders anyway at the moment.

Just need to get rid of Thud and Livermore now.

Suarez should be suing his agent or his advisors then if he wanted a release clause but didn't get one. Afterall, I doubt suarez would have read every term and condition in his contract.

He needs to be the focal point of the team, not a support player as he was at Tottenham.

I quite like Dempsey, although I think he could have easily moved to other clubs with a higher standard of football than the Seattle Sounders.

He will be well paid mind and closer to home, maybe playing regular football in his national country isn't such a bad thing pre World Cup.

People need to remember that Seattle Sounders are a very wealthy owned club, their combined ownership team has more money than the Russian that owns Chelsea for example.
 
As a Spurs fan, nothing ****ed me off last season more than seeing Dempsey wearing 2 on his back. I'm glad that he's going.
