I'm beginning to enjoy all the disgusting sh.it from our awful press and c.unts like Moyes, Ferguson, Pullis and Allardyce.  They have done the most incredible job of motivating Luis. Full credit to Moyes though - REMEMBER THE DIVE !! Luis is clearly responding in the best way he knows how to all the incredible rubbish that has been thrown at him. Keep it coming I say. At the moment his value is going up by about £5m a week. I hope he never goes anywhere but if he did it would take some very deep pockets, £50m plus would be my guess !!

LUIS SUAREZ - THE REAL SPECIAL ONE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

No doubt it was spectacular, but it was a hit and hope and it came off, he had no right to score from there and thats what makes it special. Whats bothered me is that now there have been comparisons in the media for the best goal ever scored and Bergkamp, Maradonna, Van Basten, Zidane etc have been put in the frame. I know Im biased but the goal Suarez scored against newcastle the other week isnt even mentioned. That was pure skill, or at a push, 95% skill and 5% luck. Yet not a peep from those who have compared goals. Beckhams goal from his own half- Alonso did it, twice! Luis did it against norwich last season. Rooneys overhead kick- Crouch did it, twice!
Liverpools goals musnt be as special then...
:no


Crouchies wonder goal last season was ten times better for me !! An overhead kick into an open goal was nothing more that an act of luck and a lot of perception. Clever yes brilliant no.


it was a good goal but not the best, he did well to show awareness and his technique was good but it was a fecking lob into an open net.
bicycle kicks are all about trajectory imo and for that id say crouch,shrek and rivaldo were all better than ibra's.

don't know ,you tell us........ I do know Luis gives 100% and occassionally he may mistime a tackle the same way many defenders have apparently mis-timed tackles on him this season...there are some in the media and others that have a dislike for Suarez, that seem hell bent on blaming Luis for inventing diving , fouling and any other misdemeanour they can bring to the table...

He caught Jones foot going for a tackle and was a fraction of a second late.  I love how they call it a stamp, it was nowhere as near as bad as Figueroa's on Sterling.  Nowhere near as bad.  Yet it gets all this attention because Suarez is doing so well and playing extremely clean, and the media can't have that.

It was worth a yellow, but the ref didn't see it. The press will have it for him for a good while yet: he's the perfect football villan.

But, i'm pleased to see Luis finally focusing on his footie, and not amature dramatics. He's showing what a class player he can be hopefully it'll continue for a long time.

Liverpool chairman Tom Werner vows to keep striker Luis Suárez and deliver in the January transfer window

By Chris Bascombe, Anfield
18 Nov 2012

Shortly after watching Luis Suárez’s latest star turn against Wigan Athletic, Werner was in the mood to make a more forthright pledge to those seeking a guarantee of Fenway Sports Group’s intentions.

He said there is no prospect, either in the immediate or long-term, of the club’s weekly match-winner Suárez being sold. “Absolutely not,” said Werner.

“He’s a beautiful player to watch and, as a Liverpool fan, I hope I’m watching him for many years to come. We made a long-term contract with him in the summer and we are going to see a lot of his play at Liverpool.”

Every time Werner or principal owner John Henry venture across the Atlantic, one imagines them in their fire-fighting costume, arriving at the Shankly Gates and asking stewards for the directions to the latest inferno that needs extinguishing. The blaze of publicity surrounding Suárez’s future is not of their making, but it does no harm to occasionally offer public assurance in the face of the more scurrilous rumours that FSG would cash in for the right price.

Liverpool supporters have been in the market for more promise and less ‘under delivery’ over the last few months - particularly on the issue of player recruitment - and FSG are in territory where the goodwill for not being Tom Hicks and George Gillett has somewhat run its course.

Despite the win here, the need for Liverpool to buy rather than sell in January is apparent. Werner robustly confirmed Liverpool’s plans.

“Our intention is to strengthen but actions will speak louder than words,” he said. “We are playing better and better each week. Obviously, we have made some mistakes in the past but our intention is to deliver, strengthen the squad and move forward.

“We know that January is a challenging time and I don’t want to say we’ve got x or y but, hopefully, the fans will be pleased with what we do accomplish.”

As a Los Angeles television and film producer, Werner can watch Suárez and appreciate the box-office appeal of a charismatic leading man. He must be tempted to ask the club’s marketing department to add a ‘double O’ in front of Suárez’s No 7. The Uruguayan is the man with the golden touch, granted a licence to thrill, consistently intervening to prevent Liverpool’s sky falling in.

Suárez’s double, Raheem Sterling’s excellent second half and Jose Enrique’s reinvention as a goalscoring left winger extended an unbeaten streak in the league to seven. Sterling, who created two of the goals, also has admirers hoping to demolish Liverpool’s reputation as a club who can fulfil the ambitions of their best players. “They would be wasting his time,” was Brendan Rodgers’ response to his suitors.

“Raheem is in a real good place here. He will tie down himself to a new contract because he wants to be here and he can be a great here. Why would you want to leave one of the biggest clubs in world football? It’s a no brainer.”

It was against Wigan last season Sterling made his debut, a late substitute in a defeat that assisted Kenny Dalglish’s demise and earned Roberto Martínez a Liverpool job interview.

“I can see huge, huge progress,” said Martínez. “When we saw him that day a year ago, you could see the real potential. You can see he’s a very direct, talented player and he’s going to have a very bright future.”

Wigan fancied their chances of a repeat victory at half-time, but Jean Beausejour’s poor pass enabled Sterling to feed Suárez on 47 minutes and it could have been a rout afterwards.

Martinez’s mood darkened when he discovered Ben Watson suffered a broken leg after colliding with Sterling in the first half. There was no blame attached to the Liverpool youngster who later apologised.

The Wigan manager did imply there was Suarez villainy in an ugly challenge on David Jones. There was no evidence of intent, however.

It all amounted to a comfortable home victory, Werner able to return to the United States to prepare for the next, inevitable bout of fire-fighting when the transfer window opens.

Let's not worry about him being the top scorer in the league, no there are more important stories to print, like some insignificant mis-timed tackle on the weekend.    :no

I like you eds.

Remember, Boxscarf would have sold Suarez for a few pieces of silver because he doesn't like him, so anything to 'build a fatuous case' to vindicate his original viewpoint is my guess.
