Suarez a flop at Barca?
The star players that have left Liverpool in the past include: Michael Owen, Fernando Torres, Xabi Alonso and most recently Luis Suarez. In the case of Torres, his stardom decreased rapidly after his move to Chelsea and has never seemed to pick up again. 50 million pounds effectively got them a very average striker who on various occasions missed open goals. After Michael Owen left Liverpool he never reached to heights that he did at Anfield. Alonso having moved to Real Madrid did not have such a major drop in form because of the quality that surrounded him. However he did not regain the quality he possessed at Liverpool playing alongside Steven Gerrard. Will Luis Suarez follow suit and become a flop at Barcelona? I think that it’s a 50/50 call because he has been in such great form recently and he can usually make something of nothing all by himself. But on the other hand at Barcelona he is no longer that main man, playing alongside the likes of Messi, Neymar, Xavi, Iniesta and the list just goes on. He will have to find his place amongst these huge stars of the game who have almost won everything there is to win in world football. So will he cope not being the centre of attention anymore? I don’t think so, as with many strikers he is very selfish at times and I don’t think this will fly at Barcelona but I could be wrong. In the 2010 world cup he was very instrumental to a lot of Diego Forlan’s goals. So he might surprise me and become a very important part of their team. At the end of the season, Suarez was linked with many clubs including Real Madrid and Cristiano Ronaldo that he would not be happy about Suarez moving to the club. He said that the ‘BBC’ combination of Bale, Benzima and Cristiano was working well and that if Suarez came it would throw out the balance. What he probably meant was that it would be a bad idea to have too many selfish players in one team. Players seem to always want to move to a ‘better’ club and many times it doesn’t quite work out the way they expect.
