18 from Suarez and 16 from Studge. It's a great return.

Just for clarification, I don't agree with Rosco that Studge has been the better player. The fact is Suarez creates the attacking style we have as much as he benefits from it. Assists matter! We looked much better with Suarez outwide then with Studge out there for good reason. Not to mention Studge's bouts of selfish behavior in front of goal this season really did hurt us in the end, GD wise.


But to say that some goals have more importance then others is completely correct and I wanted to argue that point. If you look at strictly goals, I think Studge's have possibly had more importance.

Sturridge has had a fantastic season but for me Luis has been a bit better all around.
30 goals, 12 assists and an amazing work rate.
Deserves all the plaudits he gets.
Thats taking nothing away from Sturridge performances though.

He has always been, & will always be that 'greedy', it's that his shots weren't paying returns as much cos his form dropped.

He & Suarez have both been unselfish & set each other up as well being 'selfish', I fully expect strikers to shoot when they think they can score.

Luis Suarez: Liverpool striker is football writers' Player of the Year
Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has been named Player of the Year by the Football Writers' Association.
The Uruguayan, 27, has scored 30 Premier League goals for a team chasing their first title since 1990.
Suarez took 52% of the vote, with team-mate Steven Gerrard second and Manchester City's Yaya Toure in third.
"Tireless endeavour allied to extraordinary imagination makes an irresistible combination," FWA chairman Andy Dunn said.
"Add ingenious, impudent finishing and you have a footballer who truly quickens the pulse."
Suarez, also named Player of the Year by the Professional Footballers' Association, will receive his award at a dinner in London on May 15.
More than 300 journalists cast votes for 10 different players for the prestigious award which has been running since 1948.

I would have thought he would get more than 52%. That's just my opinion of course.

I have never seen such a player as Suarez his goals, skills , awareness , tenacity , competitiveness , hard work and child-like enjoyment of playing are fantastic. He now is the best player I have ever seen pull on a red shirt.

These two latest rewards are wholly deserved and no one should disagree with that.
Regards

And this coming from a fan who's been a season ticket holder for about 40 years.
I agree with every word!
Now he'd bettet win us the league!

Congratulations Luis! Well deserved!

He should have, certainly, but this doesn't actually surprise me. Some of them just don't like him and can't separate that from what passes for their judgment.
