Suarez is the most talented player this club has had IMO. He won't get the recognition he deserves but his achievements are overshadowed by racist remarks and biting, but the guy has been the best number 9 in the world since Ronaldo. As a few have mentioned, he didn't have pace but he was brilliant at dribbling and that's something that we lack in the front 3. Thiago, Keita and Gini to some extent provide that dribbling ability from midfield, but you need someone in the box to weave their way in. Bobby should have been that person but he's simply not a box player - he needs to move into a number 10 role IMO.
Really wish we'd have got him back in the summer. Imagine what he'd be like with Salah & Mane alongside him
I'd have to say I wasn't overly keen on calling him that talented. He had the magic and unpredictability yes but he was still one footed and not that pacy. Best dribbler I've seen is barnes. The hardest worker I've ever seen was kuyt the best goal scorer I've ever seen was rush, but fowler was close. The fastest was owen. dalglish had the best "vision" and passing Suarez combined the dribbling, hard work, and goal scoring in one. As all all rounder I would agree that he was the best all rounder we had maybe but I would never put him ahead of barnes. Here is why. enjoy but enjoy some suarez folks. then rush for finishing. speaking seriously the closest to ronaldo in terms of just pure striking. suarez was not at that level. I could go on and on (as people would accuse me of) but we have been so LUCKY to see all these players for us.
Except for the fact that the season he left he bit a few people so he blotted his copybook here and could go. He didn't want to stay, so why would he come back? Because Barca wasn't the promised land, after all? The racist thing with Evra I didn't believe, but still...when Barca came knocking, because the missus wanted Spain, he upped sticks and did one. Would I have him back? On loan, maybe, but not permanently
When he went there they were at the apex of the game. Who’s turning down playing alongside Messi in his pomp? No ****er.
That's not what I meant. I meant he fell out with them and moved to Atletico. He doesn't stay anywhere long
Not really no, he’s 34 now and Koeman told him he didn’t want him when he arrived, so off he popped. He spent 6 seasons at Barca.
Yup. No falling out. The disgraced barca ex leadership appointed koeman to do dirty work. One job was to get rid of suarez due to his wage. Frankly the fact atletico could win the big trophies shows how stupid barca are/were
