I can't see what all the fuss is about. We are extremely unlikely to win the league this season, it's hardly an earth shattering revelation is it?
I've not tried to hide the fact that Luis was not too far wide of the mark in his statement. Rather, the thing that I find worrying is that this is the latest issue in a string of comments & actions that to me seem to illustrate that he does not see LFC as a final destination for him..... more of a stepping stone
Let's not forget, Suarez himself stated that he came to LFC because we were the only club who bid for him in January. Given his incredible impact in England, it is a certainty that there will be other teams trying to lure him away this next summer, and unless the club can prove its ambitions to him, then I think he may well ask to leave. His hunger and desire on the pitch is obvious, but his passion sometimes leads him to making impulsive (sometimes silly) decisions (like biting a player) while in the heat of battle.... and if the handball in the world cup taught us anything, its that Luis will literally do ANYTHING to win!! I don't think for a second that he will even hesitate to hand in a transfer request if we do not do everything necessary to win trophies within the next 12-24 months, and the best way for us to do this is to sign players this January and next summer who can make us immediate title contenders.
I'm not saying he is right, nor am I saying he is wrong. It just frustrates me to see him supposedly saying things like this about the club so early in the season as I think it provides an ugly representation of the club and our ambitions from one of our best (if not the best) players....
