9 - Luis Suárez - v1

[BerkeleyBernie]

Tired od people trying to find a single mistake just to be able to criticize Suarez. He missed a sitter, huh, Neymar missed a few tonight as well - so what. Important thing is to see what this 3 are bringing for the club. From this 3 amazing strikers most of the time someone will miss or not score but even without gol will be important for the team, that's what football is about, team play

Exactly. Neymar should have had a much higher goal tally tonight, but IMO, this was Neymar's best game yet in a Barça jersey. Much more of a team effort from him, no dallying on the ball (except once when he took too long to shoot), getting it quickly to his teammates. Doesn't matter who scores the goals.

He is hungrier that ever. Just by looking at him you could tell he has so much desire to win every damn thing. I'm so glad we bought him. Keep it up Luisito

This was in your opinion his best game ever ? A game in which his misses made me want to go zuniga on him . He had a goal and some good passes but that's it . There are at least 20 games in which he was better . Really don't know what you expect to see from a player with coments like those.

Man that header was epic. I was already celebrating. Thank god for his strike otherwise a barcaforum meltdown would of been live.

naaaah , it's ok . We've gotten used to those misses.

It would have been a shocker if he didn't miss .

This gif is awfully slow for some reason.

This is the perfect of example of why we have the best attack in the world. Neymar and Suarez alone will draw a shitload of defenders, but Messi is literally an electromagnet. As soon as Messi receives the ball, three Bilbao defenders converge on him. Neymar is left with one man, who is actually more worried about Messi, while Suarez has a shitload of space. By the time the Bilbao midfielder advances near Suarez, it's already too late.

I'm glad he wasn't injured after this. And Athletic fans booing him, as if he faked the contact...

To be fair, they didn't get to see the replay. So when Suarez immediately came back on, to them, it looked like had faked contact to get their player sent off.

 

[linetty]

Well, for me it didn't look that clear at first as well. Was bit suprised when the ref took out his card till I didn't see the replay.

Glad he's fine.

Athletic fans still boo Iniesta to date for a supposed dive 5 years back which was as clear a foul as it gets. Weird fans. Yesterday they applauded Xavi though so I give them that.

So I suppose they'll boo Suarez from now on too.

 

[Egert]

Suarez definately adds alot. That goal was amazing too

I don't know. With Iniesta I'm certain the real reason they boo him is his World Cup winning goal for Spain and the supposed dive is just cover although none of their fans will admit it.

 

[Barcaman]

I thought Iniesta is booed because some comments he made about San Mames?

 

[CatalinR10]

doesn't iniesta get booed because he got a player sent of a couple of years ago ?

Yeah, i think it was Amorebieta in 2010 or 2011.
