Stargoat's Journal: Liverpool FC

In the latest Liverpool match (against Newcastle), Luis Suarez was unavailable due to an illiberal expression made some matches previous and frowned upon by the FA. And without Suarez as a striker, instead using Carroll and Bellamy. Liverpool goes on to win 3-1, with that 1 being an own goal in an unlucky touch off Aggers. Gerrard was also fantastic after being substituted in.

Is Suarez too small to play central striker in the Premier League? Should he instead be moved into a winger position, where he can drive into the goal in the way that he does so brilliantly? People accuse him of taking dives, but the fellow is small. Wikipedia lists Suarez as 5'11", though I suspect his actual height is a lot closer to 5'9". With the hits a central striker takes in the EPL, it is not realistic to expect Suarez to be able to maintain ball control in the center of the goal box.
