There is an article in BBC sport about how Suarez has changed in Barcelona and he is less selfish and score less goals but gives many more assists which is ridicoulus of course, as he was an amazing assists provider last year with 13 in the league second in all the PL only to. our own Gerrard.

This is one department where we are doing much worse this season. As someone wrote here we are quite a non assists friendly team. Gerrard assists are non existant partly because he is playing deep, maybe he lot it a bit. Henderson is trying and provided few, the others mainly try to do it all alone. We need to improve this because I don't think we can count on wonder goals from Coutinho every game.

When I read the article I didn't get the impression it was really about Suarez getting goals and assists, more a dig at barca fans who had booed Suarez and expressed frustration at his lack of goals. Then when he was defended by professionals and his manager, that he offers so much more than goals, in terms of movement creating space etc, that booing stopped and the cheering began. As if the writer was having a go at fans that simply are there to support Messi, and have little understanding of the game.

That was the impression I got anyway. It felt he was having a dig at the original boo boys.

Gerard's assist tally is different because Skrtel scored so many headers from his corners last season.

Someone assists pretty much ever goal so I don't know what u mean by non assist friendly team. I don't even think that's a statement that belongs in the English dictionary.
And Hebdo has produced more than a few assists. In the premier league alone he has produced 6. that's double 'a few'

As interesting as it was about Suarez, I found the death of tika taka more interesting to note. Get it and play it forward as fast as they can to a dynamic front three. BR take note, we are doing very similar and Barca are doing it. Do not revert back to boring possesion for possesion sake
