Fwiw we did spend some of that money on Suarez. The Carroll deal was not a good one definitely but ~£20M seems like a steal for Luis now

We bought Suarez before we sold Torres/bought Carroll... We were buying him all along, to partner Torres...

I have no idea where the extra £15mm went... whether it went in the transfer kitty to horrifically over spend on British players in summer 2011 or to go back and put it towards Suarez...

But given the signings we had that summer, it may not have made a difference other than having Studge and Suarez play together 2 years earlier...

edit: yeah, Suarez was great value at that price... Hell even the 35 spent on Carroll doesnt seem AS bad when you look at some of the silly money spent on players since then...
