Liverpool Transfers: 5 Reasons To Keep Luis Suarez At The Club

4. He's A Team Player With A High Amount Of Assists

The thing that€™s amazing about Suarez other than his goalscoring record is the fact that he isn€™t as selfish as you might think based on his goalscoring record. As the saying goes, the best strikers need to be selfish €“ well that simply doesn€™t seem to apply to Luis Suarez. The Uruguayan forward has provided 10 assists this season, which is the best record at Liverpool €“ but it€™s also worth noting that no player in the Premier League has assisted more goals this season. Even across the top five leagues in Europe; his record is extremely favourable with only Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Cesc Fabregas providing more assists. Obviously, chances created per game also comes into this and the stats on Suarez are highly impressive with 2.9 key passes per match. This ranks him very highly across Europe with only Man City€™s David Silva faring better with 3.9 key passes per match. All of this data backs up the idea that Suarez is a team player that creates chances for his teammates as well as finishing the ones that come his way.
