Actually it is, very good defender, would have been an excellent 3rd choice defender, and would have pushed Skrtel for his place.
Would have preferred him to stay at Molde than go to Saints.
BBC Sport - Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers angered at Luis Suarez 'diving'
Interesting. Now that he's admitted it be angry rather than before when he hadn't but it was quite plain to see?
It's all gossip until we see how he is in England. He wouldn't be the first Norwegian to flop.
If people listen to the whole Suarez interview its intriguing
He is spot on when he says 'Suarez sells' so any remote evidence that he can have bad publicity the media jump on it.
He has admitted diving against Stoke as they were under pressure at home, all other 'Dives' he says he exaggerated contact but it was a foul in the first place, make of that what you will.
He also completely denied handling it intentionally against Mansfield, saying it just bounced up... The celebration he also dismissed as we all know he celebrates like that every game
Seeing as he has improved with all this the last 2 months it seems like he has realised the bad effect it has, so hopefully will be the end of constant controversy
It sells because he has a pretty terrible record stretching back to Ajax. He pretty much brings it on himself.
As for the bold, thats still simulation, some of them might be actual fouls, some might be just contact (which isnt a foul, Gareth Bale, learn the laws jug ears.), but going over if the contact isnt bringing you over, is a dive.
I can't help but think that if he did come back he'd find that spark that he had with us before he left and start banging the goals in. I think he's not interested at Chelsea because well, it's Chelsea. Their own fans were booing him last night. He would definitely welcome back a Liverpool return with open arms.
I partly agree, and this just isn't Suarez, but in alot of cases you don't go down the foul is not given even though its a Blatent foul
in so many cases You do not get any fouls If you stay on your feet, sad to say but it's true... And this is what Suarez was saying, righty or wrongly he is not the first and will not be the last
Suarez has brought these things partly on himself, but others are purely because it sells, and has been massively over exaggerated because of who is involved
As nice as that sounds, I doubt it simply because he has lost the acceleration, explosiveness and pace that made him so devastating at Liverpool. Simply not the player he was due to his injuries and the fact that Liverpool rushed him back from them meaning he did not properly heal which worsened his condition.
Your welcome to have him back anyways.
I do agree but if players stop trying to con the ref, it would make their lives easier.
True he will never be at his peak of old LFC days, but confidence is a HUGE thing, and its something Liverpool have always seemed to give players in any situation... Torres would be no exception, and although he wouldnt reach the heights of before.. still think he can play a part, espeically considering he is only 28 still
yes agreed
Gossip? Have you actually seen him play? Because I have, a lot.
Saying he wouldnt be the first Norwegian to flop is a strawman argument.
Until he's played in England, you don't know how we'll fare in England
You might think he'll be great, good, moderate, or ****, but it's all rumours at this stage.
That could be said about every single signing. ever. **** that can be said about a player moving inside England. Its a strawman argument since every player comes with an element of risk.
Point is, he is currently a very good defender, and you've missed out on a good 3rd choice defender who could have pushed Skrtel for his place.
What about Seb Coates?
