Stevie poor , Suarez poor

Nope, Rooney isn't world class. Another very good player but isn't world class.

What does he have to do with Suarez?

For what's its worth, I think the Luis is displaying the traits of someone who is mentally tired. BR has spoken of the need to protect a player who wants to play each and every game. The result? If not burn-out, then a serious drop in performance. Time to rest him Brendan. JimmyTheRed

Hadn't Luis just got back from playing for Uruguay?
That's the thing with humans - they tend to be a bit tired after long trips.

Puny mortals

I've emailed John Henry to insist that from now on we should only sign specially designed robots who can guarantee the highest level of performance in each and every game and never do anything in the slightest bit controversial. I'm still waiting for his response. So much for his promise of "listening to the fans".

Shortsighted give the bloke a chance to email back, if you haven't long sent the email, remember time zones and all that, he may well be having a kip

That's very reasonable........

I have ny moments, although the seem few and far between

The OP is correct to say against Anzhi Suarez and Gerrard were both poor, Gerrard in his passing and Suarez in his first touch and control In fact, it was the worst I've seen Suarez play for us. Is he trying too hard? He needs to clam down and the other players need to link up with him better. The pressure may be on him as a lone striker.

Suarez was getting kicked the whole game and getting nothing from the poor referee, who was running around like the gay referee on Youtube. It got so bad that when he finally got a freekick, he said to the ref, no, I dived.
