Luis Suarez who turns 37 in two months and is playing with a knee injury has taken Gremio who were in the Brazilian second division last season to join first in the first division having the most assists and most GA in the league including 17 GA in his last 14 games and top it off he just scored a 19-minute hattrick against the league leaders in their own back yard to complete the comeback from 3-1 down and give Gremio a fighting chance to win the league for the first time in 42 years Suarez has failed to have a goal contribution in only two games in the last 3 months at almost 37 he’s been Gremios best player and perhaps South American football’s best player I don’t think any number 9 in history has an individual impact on their teams like Suarez did he was world class in a decent Liverpool side he won the treble with the Barcelona side that had finished trophyless he won Atletico Madrid’s first league title in seven years now this madness with Gremio
It might be true that people wrote him off a bit early in Europe and that he was expected to coast and retire in South America. Thats some strong performance and commitment… But to argue he is th ebest striker in the world rn would be a stretch and just dilutes his great year, imo. Makes me wish MSN would be play on loan for Barca this UCL as super subs :)
