Luis Suarez: 5 Reasons The Liverpool Striker Is Premier League's Best

2. More Than Just A Goalscorer

Another problem with Suarez is that he offers a lot more than just standing in a certain attacking position and wait to receive the ball, like some strikers often do. No, he plays more like an attacking midfielder, he's always on the move looking to make something happen, or tracking back defensively for his team. This also means that he is keen to create opportunities for his teammates as he showed by laying on a fifth goal for Raheem Sterling at the death of the win against Norwich. As mentioned, Suarez has played only nine times in the league this season €“ but has already managed to lay on two assists with plenty more to follow, I'm sure. The further data of 2.7 key passes and 2.9 dribbles per game shows that creatively to create opportunities combine with the intent and ability to do so. As hinted previously, the scary thing is the player's ability to drop into a number of different positions, create and score goals as well as showing some of the most impressive workrate seen by any striker in world football.
