I haven't been a fan very long compared to most of you guys so the only strikers I can compare him to are Liverpool 2007 - now. And with that in mind, Torres is his only competition and I would say Suarez is better.

As for the old boys: Kenny, Fowler, Owen, Aldridge, etc. I never saw them play so I can't say who is better.

I think for Suarez to be considered the greatest ever he needs to win something with us. Score in an FA Cup final or help us knock out some of the big boys in the Champions League.

Also, it seems like for every era Liverpool have a great striker. The 2008/2009 Liverpool were the only ones I saw that had a great striker, a great midfield, and a great defense. It seems like we've always got 2/3 but just can't get the final piece in place.

how can a player be described as great if he does'nt win major honours, thats a question I would like answered, would Maradonna be regarded the greatest in the World if he never won that World Cup or single handidly carried Napoli to two serie A titles think not, winning major trophies defines players.
You never accepted the answer to this old chestnut of yours...of course your aware of this so whats the point?


That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

Maradonna was a cheating rat! The only thing he single handedly did was put the ball in the net with it !

was he regarded as the greatest tho, would he of still been regarded as that if he never achieved the honours of what he did in the game.


Would he have won the World Cup had he not cheated?

Is it one criteria for one and one for another when it comes to being a " rat "?

So cheating your way to a World Cup isn't being a rat? Just trying to work out your ever changing criteria?

I think intentionally pi55ing people off constitutes being vermin...yet others don't see it that way. So I guess it's subjective really. I see it as someone being a rat, a doctor might see it as a case of someone with a serious psychological disorder...the person in question might feel it's completely natural and normal though...

It's very subjective,this rat thing...

Well it must be subjective if the criteria keeps changing.

But you're doing the same by excepting Maradonna cheating are you not? Be consistent or does that not get the best rise ?

Yep. And bad ones will get stick regardless what they do. Just look at the stick Lucas got and he's a proper nice chap.
