The January New Manager Warchest Transfer Thread

[Brazilian Villain]

Ronaldo is 37 didn't see much negativity about him coming back the Premier League. Suarez is a simply brilliant player. Couple of years of him at Villa Park - yes please.

If we are going to go for him best get him in now. Messi can wait till the summer.

Honestly we could sign Coutinho Digne Harland Suarez Mbappe and KDB in this window and you lot would still be whingeing and whining about a fucking DCM

Well, to be fair, even if we did sign all of those, it would still be a problem.

Plus we would only have Hause as backup to Mings and Konsa

It sure is a glass half empty fanbase at times

That’s a bigger problem in my view

Suarez is every bit as good as Cavani if not better, and Cavani is doing just fine in the PL.

I am staunchly pro Suarez.

I have admired this player for a long time and it would be incredible to see the great man in our colours.

Six month deal with option for another year sounds good to me.

That.

Man United finished second last season. They are an absolute rabble this season. Biggest issue being the complete change in shape to accommodate CR. Their young forwards like Greenwood and Rashford are regressing hugely as a result. Bar selling shirts, the signing of CR has been a disaster for their team. Cavani has been dreadful this season, including twice against us in the past week.

Smith, and Gerrard of late, have been guilty of doing something similar to accommodate Ings in the team this season. Just hope Gerrard isn't making the same mistake again with Suarez.

Will Suarez be comfortable rotating with Watkins? Is he still capable of leading the line in the EPL against sides that defend with a high line? That's the role we need filled and I can't see how Suarez is any improvement on Ings.

Suarez surely proved Barca wrong last season but the Spanish league is at a very low ebb these days. It's the next Suarez we should be looking for.

Yep, there's been absolutely loads of negative stuff around ronaldo. That said i'm not sure they're the same sort of players so any comparison is not particularly helpful. Has Suarez's game changed much in recent years?

I don't recall him getting much of a kick in games v Chelsea and Liverpool. Granted Athletico were hopeless in those games. Still very dangerous in the box but sure so in Ings (without Watkins) and he's 5 years younger.

Seems like he is pissed off with not being a regular at Athletico. Is he going to be happy watching Watkins from the bench most weeks?

[Pete3206]

Suarez? Yes fucking please!

And we don't need to sell Watkins or Ings, this would make us a stronger squad. Davis needs to be moved on and Archer a work in progress.

[Toronto Villa]

He scored 28 in 51 games last season in La Liga. He won’t be as dynamic and all action but he’s clearly using what he still have effectively. Now the PL is a lot faster than La Liga so will that be something he will be able to adjust to quickly? But in the box he is still incredibly agile and his mind is quick. He’s a better all round striker than what we have today.

[LeonW]

Think Suarez would be a bad move and he’d command very high wages.

[eamonn]

But a lot less than you'd think, apparently.

[Hillbilly]

Not sure I’m on board with the effects to reconvene the Liverpool 2014 team at Villa Park. Seems a touch backward looking. Where is Glenn Johnson nowadays?

[ROBBO]

We are a funny lot, having Suarez come across from a commercial perspective would be huge, true he's getting on a bit but he did well last season, on a short term contract what's the harm.
