He can score. Liverpool's problem isn't him not being able to score - he puts in enough shots that plenty turn into goals. But Suarez's misses look that much worse when the midfield/wingers are scoring 0. Wins become draws, draws become losses and the striker's misses are to blame.

He has room for improvement, but he is "one of the world's best" if we're talking top 10.

I don't agree, but Messi does so

I think he's a good winger but would I want him as a striker over Ba/Cisse? Nope.

 

[Joel Was Right]

I think I saw him down the estates earlier wearing Reebok trainers

 

[dc89]

JM7 ran the game today. Start him more often Bobby!

This might sound arrogant but I don't think those figures for the Eredivisie should be given much weight as it's a weaker league.

I also think a striker should score goals to be considered one of the worlds best. And for the last two seasons he hasn't been scoring enough for Liverpool.

 

[GQman2121]

Yaya and Tevez have been disappointing fantasy wise these last few weeks. Citys schedule for the rest of the month should have them back on top. We're bound to slip up, maybe not today, but perhaps in two weeks vs Spurs.

 

[Ushojax]

6 of Suarez' goals came in two games against Norwich. He's a very good player but to be one of the best in the world you have to put the ball in the net pretty much every week. He doesn't do that.

 

[JesusTom]

Which 3 o clock kick-off do people recommend I watch? Need something to do while at work.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

And Dyer starts. Great (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

20 in 50 is a good strike rate. And how about 28 in 54 for Uruguay?

I agree the Ajax goals hold less weight, but surely they should be mentioned if the claim is "he can't score."

Like I said he has plenty of room for improvement. Is he better than Aguero, Rooney, RVP, Falcao, or Messi? No, sadly. But he's in the top 10. He is also Liverpool's most creative player. If the buckets of chances he created for his teammates turned into goals, he'd look so much better.

It's not really arrogant, Eresivision is outside of the top teams mostly embarrassingly weak defensively. Not that I think Suarez is a complete shit striker, just a JT, but looking at the huge list of crazy scoring rates from the dutch leagues top scorers through the time who then goes on to flop in a slightly better league is amazing.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Edit : woops.

 

[TheGreatDivide]

I'd rather watch Final Score than a match.

Oh Gabby.

 

[Messi]

I would really love to see Arsenal win the title this season.

 

[Phantast2k]

Pretty nice goal by Hamburg's Son. Will gif later..

/fucking Babbel on course to allow Bayern another scoring fest against his team..

 

[fuenf]

ribery! not bad

 

[Blablurn]

Riiiiiiiibeeeery

 

[The_Hitcher89]

I would really love to see Arsenal win the title this season.

So would I. Not gonna happen though

 

[spidye]

Ribery!!!

 

[JesusTom]

Oh Gabby.

She's looking particularly fine today!

 

[Steverulez]

Good win for city. Just got into my seat at Stamford bridge for the game vs Norwich.

Currently two fit birds from Thailand (I think the presenter said Thailand) with Singha Beer signs in the middle of the pitch.

 

[Messi]

So would I. Not gonna happen though

I don't know what it is, but I really like Wenger.

edit: someone convince me not to buy a 300 euro ticket to the clasico. they are available on the barca site.

I like the club, and don't like the teams they'd be competing with if they get into the title race

 

[madmackem]

We played shit, cant play like that away to city and come away with anything other than that, our season wont be judged on games like this but its a bit of a worry we have not played well all season yet.

 

[flake]

Lessss do diss Chelsea!

 

[Messi]

Agree'd plus who does not love the underdog.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Come on Wigan/Everton

 

[Ushojax]

Torres lololololol

 

[Sloosha]

Why did he not shoot.

 

[flake]

Torres :/

 

[Meier]

Good lord, Torres! I think he was surprised he wasn't offside.

 

[BlindCommunication]

Torres would be top 5 in the world if he didn't keep missing 5 chances like that in every single game.

 

[fuenf]

rofl Neuer :-D

 

[TheGreatDivide]

RIP Mark Hughes

 

[spidye]

rofl Neuer :-D

he's really the best keeper in the world

 

[fuenf]

he's really the best keeper in the world

yeah, there has never been a better 'football playing' goalkeeper than him

 

[Broder Salsa]

Torres would be top 5 in the world if he didn't keep missing 5 chances like that in every single game.

He would still need to not take all tempo out of every counter attack and constantly keep the ball for himself for 30 seconds just to lose it when it's passed to him. Lets just get him away already.

 

[spidye]

yeah, there has never been a better football playing goalkeeper than him

other keepers would have just shot it away but he doesn't. he heads it to lahm so they can keep the ball.

 

[Meier]

Wigan looking up for it early on.

 

[Ushojax]

Everton lolol

Shat on by the ref again

 

[Yen]

haha everton

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

LOOOOOOOL

 

[Brinbe]

NORWICH

 

[Sloosha]

Grant Holt is definitely top 5.

 

[Meier]

And they just scored. Been running Everton off the pitch thus far. Kone maybe was offside.

Edit: Yep, looked like he was.

Nice goal by Grant Holt, was surprised he hadn't done much this season.

 

[Messi]

This is kind of fun:

Barca Toon - Preparing for El Clasico, brave themed toon

 

[Yen]

haha chelsea

 

[sazabirules]

Jelavic responds!

 

[Ushojax]

Grant fucking Holt

Chelsea to win 5-1

 

[JesusTom]

Good shot from Holt!

 

[BlindCommunication]

And to think he started to get involved more in the game because he couldn't score for one year. What a way to improve and contribute.
