9 - Luis Suárez - v1

[Behrox]

Funny thing about suarez is that he's not rly good at dribbling yet he's one of the best to go past his man.

depends on what you call dribbling. Suarez is pretty great at dribbling, if you consider being off balance-ish 80% of the time, literally half falling but beating his man through sheer madness dribbling.

The Pirates of the Caribbean quote: "This is either madness or brilliance. - - It's remarkable how often those two traits coincide." This is basically defining Suarez IMO

If he goes past his man, he's good at dribbling. What you imply is that he has a clumsy touch and ball control.

Somebody define dribbling for me please
Coz if you ask me, Suarez is a top top dribbler

 

[JerseyAddict]

Still not better than R9, obviously

Trollin, trolin down the river

Funny fact is that I for one watched Klinsmann and Batistuta and Ronaldo Il Fennomeno etc. And they were all praised as greatest strikers etc etc but Suarez with all this stats that are so impossible to even comprehend is somehow "denied" as best scorer of current era.

People are so obsessed with Messi/Penaldo issue that Suarez is denied at his rightfull place as best no9 of this times.

That's a great description. For me Suarez is a mad genius.

About his dribbling skills. I don't think he's an elegant dribbler like Messi or the one who can get past 4 or 5 players (and he doesn't need to do that) but he can dribble past 1 or 2 defenders more often than not to get himself into a goalscoring positon or to set up his teammates. I think he's an effective dribbler.

Or we can just ask David Luiz and other defenders in this video if he's a good dribbler. Those two goals against PSG are still between my favourite goals of him.

He's fucking strong. He bullied Otamendi, who has beard power. People call Diego Costa the new Drogba, or one of the best target man in football today, but Suarez is a legitimate battering ram AND a dribbler AND a poacher AND a hold-up man (although Lewa is better in this regard).

AND he's got serious playmaking abilities.

Suarez is always on the edge of control, hence all the chaos references, mad hatter, mad scientist, tank, dinosaur... as opposed to Messi who controls everything, all the time.

According to MD, we will start holding Contract extension talks with Suarez and Rakitic soon.

 

[DonAK]

Didn't do one thing right tonight. Totally off colour.

 

[Barcaman]

Poor tonight.

 

[dakt]

When was the last time he scored with a header?

 

[ThwiX]

Quite meh so far this season. Better get back to it now with Messi out and stop fucking around.

 

[Icarium]

Poor is an understatement.

 

[bismp]

No matter how great striker he is,it was proven for another night that he is a far less superior creator than Leo,Ney,etc


In other words,he can't create anything against parked buses by himself.And by anything,i don't mean a goal,but at least a decent shot or pass.
