Aldridge: “Their attitudes were poles apart”

|

Former Liverpool striker John Aldridge has praised the full home debut of striker Luis Suarez. He feels his attitude was in stark contrast to another former Liverpool striker. Writing his column for the Liverpool Echo he said:

“Suarez looks like a typical Liverpool player. He has no airs and graces and he runs himself into the ground. He put in a real shift on Saturday. It was really pleasing that he had about six separate efforts on goal. I don’t know if he’s been watching Dirk Kuyt, but he’s probably got that same sort of mentality about giving everything for the shirt. Like the Dutchman, he looks to have a habit of closing down defenders when they’re on the ball, defending from the front. Compared to what we saw from FT (I use the initials instead of his full name these days) their attitudes were poles apart. Watching Suarez so committed to the cause at the weekend was a breath of fresh air.”

Aldridge can’t wait for Andy Carroll to return so the pair can strike up an exciting partnership:

“Andy Carroll is still some weeks away from his first start for Liverpool with his thigh injury taking time to heal. But I already can’t wait to see him and Suarez link up together towards the end of the season. There’s bags of potential there, with the presence and strength in the air of Carroll and the pace of the Uruguayan. . . One thing that will make their partnership flourish is the signing of at least one quality winger. With balls being played into Carroll and Suarez from wide, it will give Liverpool’s attacking play a whole different dimension.”
