the article says £40mm

Well that's not a terrible buyout, but he's worth more

£40m is a fairly reasonable market price for Suarez

yeah, if Bayern paid 40 for Javi Martinez... Surely, Luis is worth a cool 50..

Those are the numbers being thrown around for Cavani and Falcao and he is right there with them...

Yea realistically he's in the £40-50m range. Maybe a little more because of the amount left on his contract.

Obviously having Sturridge right now would lessen the blow. And if we were able to bring in a Falcao or Cavani... Well, that wouldn't be so bad I guess.

I don't want to be a sellers club ... So personally I'm against no matter what price they offer.

If there really is a buyout clause then we don't have much of a choice.

@bbcsport_simon: What we know is #sneijder is keen on #lfc. Club also interested if he drops wage demands (he's on 90k a week or £6m a year after tax).

Rodgers and Gerrard want him bad. They're courting him in the media.

Actually, I dont think there is a buyout clause... Those seem to be big in other leagues, but not the EPL... I just think of it as, everyone has their price and if the player wants to go... thats kind of an artificial clause (like the £50mm for Torres)

I saw that clip where Stevie says he'd love to get Sneijder... We all would Stevie, we all would...

Good result for us this morning with Arsenal losing... Now we need the same from Tottenham... I feel dirty today wanting these two teams to win...

Also, if we did get £40-50mm for Suarez, I think you'd see that invested across 2-3 young players... not all in on one...

Rumors about Sneijder all over the place now as to where he ends up. And we still got more than a week left in this window!

I found this on Sneijder's wikipedia "According to Hilmi Ozcan a.k.a. #umudumuzhilmi, a steakhouse acquaintance of Galatasaray SK's president Unal Aysal, he just completed his transfer to the turkish giants. (20 january 2013)"

Good interview with Gerrard and his take on a few current and one ex player

LINK

on Luis and I agree 100%

quote:

He's in the top five best players in the world comfortably. Outside Messi or Ronaldo; I'll argue with anyone that he is as good as the rest.


On his goal against Norwich

quote:

I knew Sturridge had already scored and I knew Suarez had already scored, so I thought: "Forget them - I'm hitting this one!"


On Torres

quote:

I'm not sure he gets the love at Chelsea that he had at Liverpool. He was the top man at our place; we used to love having him about. I was heartbroken when he left. I think now, if he is honest, he probably regrets leaving because he was flying at Liverpool and he was probably one of the best players in the world when he was on form.

I just read that, according to Sky Italia, a Premier League team has come in with a late offer...
