Yip delighted.
Suárez is an amazing player that has hit an extended bad patch. His weight is not helping either.
That said, the False 9 system is not working for him. It’s either we drop the system and get Messi back on the RW or we drop Suárez and play the system.
Messi on the RW comes with problems like a midfielder having to go wide and playing out of position as well as creating problems in defence. Possible solution is to play a 3-4-3 as Lucho attempted but it’s a tricky system to master. You also give up an extra advanced midfielder in Messi by playing him wide and not as a False 9. Trade off to this is you get Suárez playing where he’s meant to.
If it were up to me I’d play the False 9 due to all its benefits with Messi being the focal point.
So I’d say at this moment Suárez is a hindrance, mainly due to his form, just like Ibra was and something’s gotta give...
2015/16 - 53 GoalsSuarez is almost 31 , he isn't going to get any better. We have seen the best of him and the last two years he's been a waste of a jersey.
2015/16 - 53 Goals
2016/17 - 36 Goals
Yeah, that’s a waste of jersey...
The more I watch Benzema, the more thankful I am for Suarez
