Champions League

Liverpool striker and this season top scorer in the Premiership with 22 goals Luis Suarez has said that the current Liverpool squad is good enough to qualify for next seasons Champions League.

The Reds are in fourth spot behind Arsenal, Manchester City and Chelsea following their 5-3 win at Stoke on Sunday which has Suarez saying the team has what it takes to compete at the highest level in Europe.

“Now we are playing very well and we have the level to play in the Champions League,” the 26-year-old told the Liverpool website. “We have really good players and if we continue at this level, we can do it.

“When you are a child, you imagine a lot. Now many people or players speak about that and it’s unbelievable for me.

“And also for Liverpool, because in the last two or three years we have not played very well and not demonstrated our level. Now we are back to that.

“You work hard for the supporters and the people. It’s important because the last few months were a little difficult for me. Now I’ve changed and it’s okay.”

Suarez signed a new long-term contract in December reaffirming his commitment to the team Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers is building.

He added: “The most important thing is Liverpool because in the last week we have played very well. That’s more important to me.

“When you work hard on the pitch, you know everything is okay – you can do everything on the pitch. You try your best every time. When you have confidence with the team, it’s also important.

“The squad is playing very well; for the forwards, it’s easier on the pitch. If I score or not, it’s not important to me. It’s more important that we win the game.”
