            He can't be. It would be completely out of character for him to get in a dig at one of our players.

              Gerrard and the rest will look better when we sign players who know how to get in an attacking position.

              How can you get assists if no attacking player has the intelligence or will to attack the space created by Suarez?

              Look at the difference Enrique made in the front three. He had massive flaws there, but what he did was attack the space created by Suarez and managed to link up exceptionally with Suarez, just by finding space.

              Get an actual attacking player in Enriques spot and the goals will flow. We have a wide option in Sterling and he'll add goals to his game, what we need is the player Borini was supposed to be - an extra attacker who will come central and bang them in when Suarez drifts.
              Forwards.......

                    WTF, the Spanish Xavi is actually a Welsh Xavi who is Spanish and Welsh?

Assume you have 2 wingers either side of a box striker like Ba, then Suarez plays where Gerrard is now in the number 10 position. Where does Gerrard go then? Does Allen get dropped? Suarez would be wasted in the wide position IMO although apparently he played there at Ajax. Benitez really did get the balance/quality of the players in his squad to suit his preferred formation. But then Torres was the perfect 9 and Gerrard was the perfect 10 and the two of them would have been perfect for Rodgers when they were on form. Suarez for me from a team perspective doesn't suit the 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 formation although he is doing well now but most of us would agree that we would like to see a box striker. I think 4-4-2 suits him better with a Ba/Huntelaar type but then then that would mean we get overrun in midfield. The tricky thing IMO is not getting hold of the players but getting the right balance and type of player that Rodgers want's for his 4-3-3. As much as I can't stand Walcott, he fits the profile perfectly With Sterling on one side and Suarez through the middle. Ba would probably end up being cover and Sturridge can go to hell
                            Suarez to the left of Ba with Sterling to the right would be wanktastic

                            I don't think Suarez would be wasted there at all, as you said he played there for Ajax and scored a bucketload. And he wouldn't be the typical wide left forward, he'd be given licence to roam and pull defenders all over the place. Might not get quite as good a goal return but then that's what the centre forward would be there for
                            I saw a dead fish on the pavement and thought "what did you expect?"

                                Suarez naturally drifts out wide anyways ( and everywhere else) so IMO wouldn't be an issue.
