Daniel Sturridge

Really?

[dww]

Think Luis will play behind Sturridge, that is, from a central starting point. He's always tracked back anyway, so I don't think he'll lose anything.

So you think we will abandon the 4-3-3 based formations? I think that is quite unlikely. I think you can imagine Suarez fitting into a new system in a similar way to how Villa did initially at Barcelona - a deeper/wider forward role but with clear intent to move centrally whenever possible.

To me the statement by Rodgers seems more like saying - I'll use the stupider player in the simpler tactical position and give Suarez greater freedom. It's not as if he is forced to stick with what he says either.

he played on the left before and scored something like 49 goals in 48 matches.

I think he's ideal for the false 7 1/2 role.

[Gibbo]

I just hope we don't sacrifice Luis' goals to make room for Sturridge.

I'm all for moving him as long as he still gets his goals.

Yeah think I'm interpreting Rodgers saying that he sees him as a No. 10.

How many goals did the guy playing through the middle score?

[Shaggy]

It was Huntelaar wasn't it? Dunno how many he scored.

[little dave hedgehog]

think it was huntelaar, so probably a few.

Plays off Cavani for Uruguay too. I think it's his best position so I've no problem with this.

He'll still score and will assist more often hopefully. As long as Daniel gets his fair share we should get an increase in goals from the forward line.

Huntelaar was at Milan the year Suarez scored 49 in 48.

That shows his talent doesnt it

Suarez was moved out onto the left for Ajax, and scored shedloads of goals whilst simultaneously improving Huntelaars form at Milan

Do you know who the centre forward was and what his record was like?

It's incidental though really. Just shows how incredible Suarez is.

Interesting that he took number 15, leaving 9 + 10 free...

I'd love it if there was something to read into that.
