Suarez tells Liverpool he wants to join Arsenal

Luis Suarez has told Liverpool he wants to the leave the club and join Arsenal.

[b]In an interview with the Guardian, the Uruguayan said, “Last year I had the opportunity to move to a big European club and I stayed on the understanding that if we failed to qualify for the Champions League the following season I’d be allowed to go.

“I gave absolutely everything last season but it was not enough to give us a top-four finish – now all I want is for Liverpool to honour our agreement.”

Although he didn’t mention Arsenal by name, it’s clear that Arsenal is the club he wants to join, saying, “It is not as if I am asking to move to a local rival. And I would not consider moving to a club outside the Champions League. I have made my desire to move known in private various times and now it feels like the time for me to make it public.

“I have to put my career first. People say Liverpool deserve more from me but I have scored 50 goals in less than 100 games and now they could double the money they paid for me.

“I spoke with Brendan Rodgers several times and he told me: ‘Stay another season, and you have my word if we don’t make it then I will personally make sure that you can leave.

“I am 26, I need to be playing in the Champions League. I feel I have done enough to be playing in the Champions League at this stage of my career. Now there is an option for me to do that and I want very much to take it.

“I want to move to play in the Champions League and there is a club offering me that opportunity. I have told the manager that I want to leave the club.”[/b]

It remains to be seen if there’ll be any progress on this or if Liverpool will simply dig their heels in. Their owner, John Henry, told fans today, “I don’t know why people ask us if we are selling the club or the best players, because we are not. We like to buy stuff, not to sell.”

While Brendan Rodgers said, “We have had a couple of bids from one club, which have been nowhere near the valuation of what he is worth in this market, so there is no change in that. It is the same with any of our players – we are very much trying to build and go forward and we want to keep our best players.

“We have no intention of selling one of the best players in the world to one of our rivals. Luis Suarez is very much a Liverpool player and there is no real value in discussing it unless someone comes close to the valuation.”

That said, all this stuff is part of the game. Arsenal have played it before, but this is thing is now an epic saga of epic proportions which is epic.

Whether going so public will force Liverpool’s hand is anybody’s guess, but they can be in no doubt as to his intentions now.

kingoflag: The Internet has made me realize that Igbos hate Anything Yoruba. Thank God I was fortunate not to be born or raised around these clowns, who knows what hate I would've been brainwashed with. Then again my pops' always been open minded and avoids dolts like the losers we see on here everyday.

This thread is wahala waiting to happen

Italiano1: I am waiting for a response to my query please

Italiano1: This is very interesting. I read a thread in politics section where a mod said there should be an end to ethnic hostilities and there was noise of zero tolerance bla bla. Yet since yesterday the amount of tribalistic posts in this thread has been embarrasing.

On every page, we have bigots using names such as tifnibu, yet there are allowed to continue posting with impunity. The rubbish excuse will be that we should report them, but curiously if it was other tribes doing same in a ojukwu thread the mods would have been very proactive and would have been handing bans like hot cake.

Does this new zero tolerance towards tribalism exclude some people while affecting others drastically?? SMH

nitlad: Apparently, at least two people ('seedord247' on the original thread and 'YesBosss' on this complaint thread) have reported this post by 'toothpaste' also quoted by 'kayci_d77' on page 16 of the MASSOB thread.

The number of hidden posts on that page and the subsequent page (a clear indicator that the mods were heavily present and active on the thread and that page in particular) makes it almost impossible for someone seeing that comment and page for the first like myself to believe that the Mods haven't seen that comment. Infact, it renders the usual lame defense that "we can't see it all" invalid. I am convinced the comment was intentionally left untouched. It has been there since 7:36AM yesterday!

The comment and the one quoted should be hidden and the poster sent to the gallows! It is a clear and dangerous violation of rule 10!

YesBosss: Bro, the mods are doing more harm than good to this forum. I have click a report button about that post more than 4times yesterday but was online today and the guys pics and info is still there. I dont know the man but its unfair, a guy was even boasting that he will track him down and swore to do that. You guys should continue and enjoy.

Asoozy: What kind of lie is this now?

Didn't I report this thread: https://www.nairaland.com/1385325/lagos-ready-secede-nigeria-debate/1 to you moderators? Are you not the one who opened a thread saying there would be zero tolerance to ethnocentrism? If so why is that thread which clearly was opened as an avenue to berate the Yoruba people still live?

If the Yorubas start replying in kind you dishonest moderators would start to not only hide their posts but ban them. How is this kind of thread gonna look in google?

You should all. Be ashamed of yourselves. All five of you including Mukina and Seun.

grafikii: Pls i would like to know if the report button works,i mean do the mods get a message from the report button because i just reported someone

Rednaxelot: Oam4j!
Abeg free tolexander from the antisperm bot and make his post visible o

plaindealer: I asked you yesterday how and why the thread below got moved and buried in Ethnic, Racial, Or Sectarian Politics section, but you conveniently ignored it.





Who made that decision and what was Ethnic, Racial, Or Sectarian Politics about a news article from a mainstream news site about the same National discussion we are having till this very second? Are similar threads not on the front page as we speak? How do you justify that?

Tribalism is what you make it and the folks trying to do away with tribalism are themselves tribalists because they see too many things from their own distorted tribal lenses. It was a news article and not my personal opinion so where is the sense and wisdom in moving that thread?

My point is, the decisions that you guys make sometimes crates more harm than good, it leaves bad taste in people's mouth which alters the credibility people have for you and what you do.

I think what you are trying to do here is a good thing, but I really was not under any kind of illusion that the 2 I was talking about are ever going to tango to make things work, it's still the same official cover and circling the wagon deal.

We are all humans and we are OK in our set ways so nothing is achieved until we sit down, table and examine our differences for the benefit of all.



Btw, who moved that thread? Don't tell me cos I know who..

plaindealer: What many are collectively asking for is banning or selective banning based on one man/mod's

Talking about the 2 bigoted mods, the way the system is rigged gan is tribal and bias, I even noticed how the OP keep sidestepping the complaints against the 2 mods as if their concerns means nothing. You can not have a peaceful and respectable atmosphere in any organization where the leaders have no credibility and the workers or members have zero respect for them. This is leadership 101.

Pataki: Here are my suggestions.......

1. If you have a certain number of bans, it should automatically disqualify you from creating a thread/topic on Politics Nairaland.

2. Until you have a minimum of over 300 posts on the politics board, you should not be able or allowed to create a thread.

3. Clear out ALL denigrating old threads about tribes on this forum. When I did a Google search on: "Yorubas are", my top finds pointed me to Nairaland.

4. Biased moderating has to stop! Afam and sexkillz should forthwith cease being moderators here. They are nothing but mercenaries for the ibo propaganda on this forum. Two biased ibo moderators is a clear signal that Seun himself loves tribalism.

nku5: For instance we can discuss the implications of Fashola's actions without turning it into Yoruba Vs Igbo war.
.

Like I mentioned earlier in this thread, some animals here will pour curses on igbos and igboland once an easterner criticizes fashola. Personally I've been involved in quite a few e-fights when that happens. Such people should be dealt with seriously

Katsumoto: You can't really send anyone on a long leave. It's all too easy to create new monikers. I have lost count on how many monikers Mekus has. A far more effective strategy would involve short bans, deleting posts without necessarily banning, deleting threads that are incendiary rather than promoting them to the front page. Long bans simply result in banned users creating new monikers that are not related to previous monikers.

OAM4J: Banning for long makes sense. We dont need troublemakers coming back every hour to continue giving us troubles. When they create new monikers and continue causing trouble we simply ban the new monikers forever. Its takes us few seconds to ban and remove their posts compare to the time they use in creating those monikers and making the posts.

Katsumoto: @ OAM4J

Can I be honest with you?

It appears your objective is antithetic or incompatible to/with Seun's objective. You (mods) can't be suing for peace while Seun is promoting incendiary and mischievous threads to the front page. I realised this many months back and advised that promoting incendiary and inflammatory threads to the FP made no sense. Afam replied that you chaps would look into it.

Nairaland is a microcosm of Nigeria; as Nigeria is sinking, so is Nairaland.


@ Mods

The politics section is not kindergarten; banning anyone for more than 30 minutes is counter productive, illogical, and immature. Since you can't stop folks from registering new accounts, what is the point of unnecessarily long bans? Perhaps there is an aim of getting more registrations even if they are multiple registrations from individual users.
