9 - Luis Suárez - v1

[Stric]

Right before the game started, I was thinking how I had expected more from him this season, and how I had thought he would bring spectacular attacks to Barca, but hadn't so far.

Boy, did he prove me wrong tonight.

And I'll just say this - if that was Alexis playing instead of Suarez tonight, it likely would have ended 1-1.

I admit I was against buying him, but I see now that a striker of his caliber was needed exactly for games like tonight.

That 0-3 goal was a thing of beauty. Keep it going Suarez!

Seems like he always plays thinking two moves ahead.

When it comes off he looks like a genius and he is one step ahead of the defenders. Other times it feels like he is thinking ahead and forgets to do the simple part first.

Was exactly the same at Liverpool, from poor to genius from one moment to the next but always works like and animal.

Makes sense.

Has already far surpassed whatever Alexis has ever done for Barca. Is already justifying his transfer fee. Score crucial away CL goals against mega-rich oil clubs. End of story. He can now piss away 10 chances against Getafe for all I care.

From the Liverpool forum: He`s worth more than we sold him for.

I think his price was just about right.

Alexis would have fallen on his arse and then looked at the referee with those puppy dog eyes. He is at arsenal where he belongs.

Suarez:

“They are very strong in their own stadium but we were able to take control of the game,” he said. “I don’t think we should overlook the tactical work that we did. We also ran a lot and physically worked hard, and you noticed it.”

“We were conscious that we had to win the game to stay on the right path in the Champions League.”

The dude is a straight up predator on the pitch.

I wouldn't be surprised if David Luiz is planning early retirement after that.

So today if you say he passes poorly, it's trolling. Funny, because it sounded like trolling to me after the last game, but it wasn't.

It's trolling if you bring it up for no reason. Fact is, Suarez sticks out like a sore thumb in this Barca side when it comes to passing the ball. Today, he did not fuck his passes up and there are other things to talk about instead. Today's game does not change the fact that he's not a Barca level passer. It's something he can (will?) improve.

Good and level-headed comments from Suarez there.

100% valid statement.

Watch the video, then tell me he can't pass...
