LFC MelwoodLIVERPOOL FC’s wantaway striker Luis Suarez has been told to train on his own following his explosive interview in The Times and Guardian newspapers, according to the BBC Sports Website.

Brendan Rodgers has been quoted as saying Luis Suarez has shown the club “total disrespect” in relation to his comments that Liverpool FC had allegedly broken a promise made to him during contract re-negotiations last year.

Liverpool are refusing to move from their position that there were no promises made either verbally or written into Luis Suarez’s new contract, with Rodgers saying:

“There were no promises made- categorically none- and no promises broken.”

Rodgers went on to say:

“I will take strong, decisive action, absolutely. I think Luis knows the support he’s had at the football club and that’s something that’s been unswerving throughout the whole of last season.”

One thing that is clear is that Luis Suarez will still try and force the move and he has plans to take the issue to the Premier League in order to force through a move.

Although, Gordon Taylor, chairman of the PFA has confirmed there is no buy-out clause in Suarez’s contract, stating:

“If there is a minimum offer of £40m then the parties will discuss things but it does not say the club has to sell.

“There is a ‘good faith’ clause in relation to serious discussions, but I can’t say it is a cast-iron buy-out clause.”

It now appears this issue will run and run as the weeks countdown until the transfer window closes.

    I actually feel sorry for the real Arsenal fans, because monsieur Wenger hasn’t been totally honest with any of you. This whole debacle was actually a smoke screen to hide the fact that Arsenal the company who lets face it don’t have the same love for the footie “TEAM” that you support and put your hopes in every season, NO! these usurpers are in it for the wonga and that’s a fact you are surely aware of?these people who want you to dig deep into your bottomless pockets are after yeah wonga(for themselves) and Wenger and kronke, have the ability to look in the mirror every day and laugh!!I’m a liverpool fan and this enough to turn you off football for ever, but I don’t, I like yourselves continue to hope whats best for my team just like your good selves. and I believe because of your owners, we will be more than just competitors this season to Arsenal for top four, GUARANTEED!

    If suarez is sold it must be out of england,Not arsenal. Its unbearable pain to see him around our beloved prodigal son.

    There could be verbal promise between Suarez and BR. But, BR is famous for cheating.

    At ‘tommy’ And how is Brendan Rodgers a proven liar ?? I think he’s handled this mess that saurez brought upon the club really well and why on earth would he even dream of selling to one of our direct competitors for fourth place !! Reality is who do we replace him with for £40 million and 1 pound that’s going to score 30 + goals a season ?.. Answer is there’s no one available unless we do business with Real Madrid for benzema plus a great deal of dosh 🙂
