Comolli's not bitter. Not in the slightest:
This Is Anfield @thisisanfield 1m
Damien Comolli has told the BBC that Suarez is too big for #LFC and his desire to leave is completely understandable http://www.thisisanfield.com/2013/08...ho-signed-him/ …He told BBC Radio 5 Live, “When I was there, we knew it would be hard to keep players like Reina, Agger, Luis if we couldn’t get into the Champions League. Luis is extremely ambitious and with all due respect to Liverpool, they’re a top eight side, not top four like Arsenal.”

Liverpool striker Luis Suárez was cheered by fans at an open training session at Anfield but remained reluctant to acknowledge the support he was given.
just like on Saturday at Steven Gerrard's testimonial virtually everything the Uruguay international did brought the select 5,000-strong crowd to life.
However, the 26 year-old did not seem keen to acknowledge their backing - even when the rest of the squad did so at the end of the session.

Luis Suarez: mountains and molehills
A couple of minutes before Liverpool’s open training session at Anfield ended, Luis Suarez trotted over to the Centenary Stand touchline to do a series of warm-down runs on his own.
He’d stopped during the main training session two or three times and knelt down on one knee, stretching a leg out behind him. Presumably he’d been feeling some sort of knock, probably in his thigh or hamstring, and the solo jogging session was a post-training loosener.
The thing is, though, #AllOfUs Liverpool season ticket holders and members on the Kop were studying Suarez closer than any of his team-mates. Just like Fernando Torres a few years back, Suarez’s body-language and behaviour is being scrutinised to the nth degree because everyone is trying to second-guess what is going on in his mind. Good luck with that one.
At the start of the session he, and the rest of the squad, lined up on the edge of the penalty area and applauded the Kop, but things were different by the end. Every time Suarez ran down towards the supporters during that solo stint he was applauded, but didn’t respond. That was in contrast to Lucas and a few others who, during a lighter training session undertaken by those who played for most of the game on Saturday, had responded to the cheers when down by the corner flag.
Then, as Brendan Rodgers called the hour-long work-out to an end with a whistle so loud you half expected Lassie to emerge from the tunnel with drinks, the squad stood on the half-way line and applauded those behind the goal. At least all but one of them did.
Suarez, who was down at the Annie Road end on his own at that point, took his orange bib off as he strolled back to the half-way line. He headed towards a cool box, grabbed a drink and then turned towards the Main Stand and headed down the tunnel.
Irrespective of whether he wants to leave or not, was it really to much to clap a stand full of fans, most of whom were kids getting a rare glimpse of their heros? And, because he didn’t, it has only given those who are trying to lure Suarez away from Anfield fuel to add to their fire.
A simple clap would’ve nailed that on the head. Dampened a bit of speculation down and said thanks to all those who trudged through monsoon-like conditions to sit inside the ground for up to 90 minutes before the players emerged.
But hang on. Say he had waved at the Kop. It would probably have been tuned into a ‘wave goodbye to the Kop’ within minutes on Twitter.
And let’s not forget that Suarez isn’t a player who particularly acknowledges the supporters anyway. How many times does he wave to the fans when his name is ringing around Anfield? Rarely – which made a mockery of those making a mountainous molehill out of his failure to do so during Stevie G’s testimonial. He’s always been like that, the difference now is that his actions are being dissected to suit different agendas.
As for his body-language during training then he looked generally unhappy throughout the session... which was good news as that’s how he tends to look during most training sessions. Especially when it’s raining. And his passing is crap. Which it was. But what are you going to read into that?
