Luis Suarez

[robsblubot 3,595]

Ah the old smiles are out eh? Thought you may resort to that.

United aren't daft? They sold ronaldo, they now have Moyes and still have Anderson on their books....now tell me they aren't stupid.

heh easy to say Anderson is a bad signing now, but back then he was hot commodity! Regular Brazil international, very solid passing, and even had moments of Brilliance; though tey become rarer as time passed. He's the showcase of stagnated development, which proves that potential is just that, "potential."

I reckon there is either something wrong with his body or his head, because a 23-24 year old cannot, or I guess should not, be as unfit and as injury-prone as he is now.

BTW, Alexandre Pato is shaping up about the same. He's been having a terrible time in Brazil, BUT he at least seems to have managed to remain fit.

I can´t believe the story on caughtoffside, just now.

Jose to offload Torres for Suarez, I read.

Ferda to Liverpool plus 20m for Suarez, it says.

This has to be some kind of joke or isn´t it ?

stop reading caught offside.

[bushman 2,043]

stop reading caught offside.

You are right, but perhaps, it will put pressure on Rooney to finally submit his transfer request ?

of course, I just tweeted him and said 'caught offside'....he replied back with....' I was in my own half'

Sky Sources: Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has no plans to apologise to the club and his team-mates

Obviously why on Earth would he do that after like 3 days saying he wants out?

A few words from the manager and owner is not going to change anything unless they are master manipulators which they aren't.

[Special Juan 28,141]

Sounds like he has fucked em off again.

[Tricky 301]

Anyone else think this guy loves a signing on fee? Regularly kicking off at clubs in order to move on.... Can we it now, like that scene in Gerry Maguire "show me the money".

[DanishBlue 426]

The worst thing is that Suarez would fit in very well in our setup. He can do things on his own and score goals and he is able to play the fast game with Hazard, Mata and Oscar. With Suarez we would be worldclass.

Problem is that I hate him. What to choose, hmm (and obviously I don't even know if the club wants him in the first place )

[Muzchap 8,966]

Just fucking sign him already...

He's the best option out there at the moment and Loserpool can take Torres + cash for him

Keeps their fans happy, keeps our fans happy = everybody wins...

Yes Suarez is a twat, nobody is denying that - but I don't give a fuck, all I care about is how many times he scores and Chelsea winning.

The rest of it (not winning) is bollox - it's just all stuff made for people to feel better about the shit season they just had.

Winning is the aim - victory at all costs - if we have to have a cunt playing for us to achieve that I'm fine with it...

BREAKING: Luis Suárez has stated that he will stay at Liverpool and will sign a new contract at the club. [@MartinCharquero]

[Kojo 4,676]

I actually hope he stays at Liverpool, because I don't even want the slightest chance of him signing here.

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

Well there goes another potential striker of the market. It seems we havent totally fixed our main problem from last season which IMO will still haunt us in crucial games like the lose to QPR or even the goalless draw against them. Teams will come to park the bus at Stamford bridge this year and we need a world class striker to unpark this bus

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

New contract? NO WAY! Maybe he will stay for one more year.

He will probably sign the new contract with a proper release clause this time or what he really was after was just a payrise

[Tomo 21,751]

On or off the pitch, cant believe people are sticking up for Terry. Yeah he has been great for our club but you cant deny he is scum.

This is an article about John Terry written by a former youth Chelsea player who currently plays in Iceland, Sam Tillen. I translated the whole thing from Icelandic so don't expect it to be perfectly written. Never the less it's a very good read and shows a side of John Terry most media and non Chelsea fans choose to ignore.

I recommend reading this.

"As football fans we don't get a lot of oppurtunities to judge a player's persona, all we get is stuff from the newspaper and other medias and of course how the player acts on the football pitch. It's normal that our feelings towards them base on those things since we don't know them personally. But unfortunately this can be very deceiving.

Sometimes reporters can have a lot of propaganda. They could have had an argument with the player, be friends with his ex wife or support a rival club. When a player steps on the field on a saturday the whole world watches him play under the pressure of his life. Players, managers and supporters have all been waiting for this moment - kick off. It's abnormal to judge people's behaviour under these circumstances. Do you think that when Gary Neville wins a game of hide and seek with his daughter he yells at his wife "Come on!!!!" while he holds on to his shirt like he did in front of Liverpool supporters at Old Trafford? I think not.

When you are around the training ground you get to see the players in they're true form. Some of them surprise and charm you while others dissappoint you. This would also be the case if you meet someone in real life. The fact that footballers are famous does not make them any different. They just have talent in a specific field just like doctors or architects. Some of them are good people, others are not.

The year 2002 I was 17 and had been injured for eight monts. I usually had to train twice as much to be in form. I trained with several players during rehabilation and since John Terry was facing injury as well I trained a lot with him. We trained together for 3 or 4 weeks before he began to play again and prove himself as the number one center back in the first team. After this John always observed how I was doing with my injury and he wished me good luck for my first game after 11 months of rehabilation. Unfortunately in that first game I got heavily injured again and had to go to surgery 3 days later. When the physio came to visit me he said that "JT" had asked if I could get vacation and he even asked Graeme (Le Saux) if they could use the "discipline fund" (money if a player comes late to a training and such) from the first team to pay for my vacation. I couldn't believe it.

After staying home for ten days I went to the training ground and John was there. He asked how I was doing and then said "Me and Graeme have arranged for you to go to a vacation, you can go wherever you want, with your friend or your brother, you deserve something good. Just think about where you want to go, this isn't your money! Just let us know how much it costs and we will arrange it.

I didn't know what to say other than thank you. I talked to the youth and reserve coaches and they told me it was probably best for me to take the vacation. One of the reserve coach said that I still had that "hospital color" because I was as white as a ghost. I lost a lot of blood in the surgery it showed in my face.

My mother had also just had surgery so she could use a a little break from work. That's why I wanted to take her with me. It was october so I needed to find "some place hot" like John advised me to do. The one place close that was hot enough was south spain and because this wasn't my money I didn't want to take advantage of the generosity from John. So the next day during practice I said to John "Is it okay if me and my mother go to Sevilla over the weekend?" His answer was, "Come on Tills! You can go wherever you want for free, why do you want to go there? It won't even be hot. Look at it again, go to the caribbeans or something, you can sit at the beach without having to worry how much it is going to cost, we will make sure of it."

So I went and checked again and found a good offer for a trip to Tobago. I talked to my physio for a few days and he said "It's fine, just talk to JT." I still felt bad spending other people's money, I had never done that before. So naturally I was a little nervous when I was talking to John, telling him about the trip I had in mind. And what did John say?

"No problem, good choice! Just give me the info and we'll pay it."

He arranged everything and the day before I was leaving for the trip he called me over in the dressing room. "Tills, your going tomorrow, right?" He went to his pocket and took out 100 pounds. "Here, some pocket money to spend". I said that I couldn't accept it. He asked again and again I refused. Then he stood up and said "you're not going anywhere until you accept this!". I had no choice.

When I came back from the trip I was renewed and a part of the reason was that I was finally ready to play football again, 6 months after my surgery. In my first game after the injury (in the youth team) we were playing Crystal Palace on our training ground. The first team wasn't suppose to have training until 3pm but our game was at 10am. John came to see me play, 5 hours before his training. He came just to see if I would get through the game, which happened. He certainly didn't have to do that, but he did.

When by brother Joe was in the youth team, John paid for driving lessons for every single player in the youth team because he knew how expensive it was when you only get 80 punds a week in the youth team. The youth players just had to tell him how much it costed and John paid it next day. In that time when the youth players were cleaning the first team players shoes everyone wanted to get one of the 'sharks', John, Frank Lampard, Jody Morris or Eiðyour Smári because they gave the highest "christmas bonus". Some players didn't give any bonus even though the youth players had cleaned they're shoes for 6 months. John didn't ony gve high bonuses, but he even paid for the youth players fines if he thought they were being treated unfairly. Of course, he told them not to say a soul.

John has never forgotten what it was like to be a player in the youth team and he is the perfect captain. He was always available if you wanted to talk to him. He always asked every youth player how they were doing in the team. If he heard that you played well in a match, he congratulated and encouraged you. He really had an interest. He never forgot the young players. He was always monitored the youth players including me. For instance, he found an agent for me that I signed with. When youth players traveled with the first team he always made sure that they got they're bonuses, that made alot of difference in they're paychecks. He helped them adapt and welcomed them in to a new environment. On the pitch and the training ground he was magnificent, he had an heart like a lion. He trained after practices, always did that little extra. We really looked up to him.

It wasn't just the youth players either. There are endless stories of his kindness and generosity, stories that never left the training ground. One of them stands out. We had an old masseuse that was called Al, one day his car broke down for good. He said that he couldn't attend to trainings anymore because it was very difficult for a man of his age to use public transportations. One day after practice John told him to go to the parking lot and close his eyes. When he opened them he saw a brand new car. John had asked every player in the first team to chip in to buy Al a new car. The old man started to cry. This all happened before Roman Abramovich and before John was a superstar and started making big money.

Last year Al got seriously sick and had to be in a hospital. When John found out he immediately contacted him. Al was flattered to hear from him and his wife was delighted that John had taken the time to hink about him. John visited Al regularly until he passed away and John, of course, attended his funeral.

Marcel Desailly, the captain before him, didn't do anything like the things John did. He couldn't care less about the young players or anyone else in the club for that matter. As a player he was impeccable but as a captain he did nothing and wasn't even close to what John is. In my first and second year in the youth team it was our job to get signed shirts from players from the first team, those shirts where then sent to fans or to a charity. We all stood in a row in the hallway before practices when the first team players walked passed us and then they signed the shirts. When Mr. Desailly came he usually pretended to be on the phone so he didn't have to do anything. We were like "Marcel, uuuuuumm, Marcel, could you please....." and then he was gone. Disappointment.

Some players cause you a lot of disappointment when you meet the personally. They also do that in daily life. John has, of course, had a few problems outside of the field that has gotten a lot of press but I will always remember how he treated me when I was a teenager. No one else would have done that or even think about it. He is no saint but there is a reason why Chelsea fans, players and staff look at John Terry as a real leader."

Suarez now said hes going to stay at Liverpool because of 'the support of the fans'

Funny thing is the cunts will beleive him

[Special Juan 28,141]

Massively cringe-worthy, nothing more and nothing less.

He's once again proved what sort of bloke he really is.
