http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NsONacHPMwThis is a good ighlight reel, though you guys should really try to see a full match. A lot of players try to go after him with physicality and out-muscle him (much like Coutinho) but his strength and balance have coem on a lot. Strengthstill isn't his best attribute, but he usually keeps his balance in situations that would have flustered him earlier. The goal he scores is a cracker too.

Suso will be a class act! Can't wait to see him in a Liverpool shirt again.

Tell you what, from that video you can see he has a cracking turn of pace, great footwork and a nice range of passing, all attributes that should see him settle into Brendan Rodgers' side nicely, it all depends on if he can cope with the Premier League.

Is it me, or does he look quicker? I don't remember him being that fast in a red shirt!

Personally, I think Gerrard needs to be rested more often, and Suso looks to be the best candidate for that role. He may not start very often, but Gerrard's influence seems to wane once we get to the 70th minut or so, and Suso would be a good sub. I also think he'd a good Coutinho deputy. A cup midfield of Lucas, Henderson, and Suso looks pretty good to me, and it would let us keep Gerrard and Phil fresher. Agree 100%. It also depends on our formation. If we do eventually revert back to a 433 I can see him being one of the two just in front/either side of Lucas. It was good to see him more central against Valencia, the first few games he was outstanding out wide with most his best work on the right, but this position is a risk for him over a long period because he always cuts in on his left foot. I was worried defenders would start reading him better and close him out, but this has been somewhat annulled by putting him more central. Look forward to seeing a bit of this next season: ----------Lucas ----Suso---------Alberto Suarez----------------Coutinho ---------Sturridge Tiki taka!

I would like to see us give 433 another shot, but I think Henderson would suit that 3rd spot better than Alberto, and I also think that Coutinho is far more effective in the centre. He can do a job out left, but I don't think that he should be shunted out there to accommodate the likes of Alberto (at least not at this stage).

Good article on his progress. He currently has 5 assists in La Liga (tied with bale and Benzema). Only Neymar, Fabregas, and Koke have more. I'm really excited to see him wear a red shirt again. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11669/9020837/suso-blossoming

Only prob for me with Hendo albeit has improved a lot, is that he doesn't have an eye for goal, whereas Alberto in the pre-seasons scored a couple of good goals.

So suddenly we have a wealth of attacking midfielders for next season, which is not so bad as long as it does not blind us to the need of a high quality defensive midfielder.
