Daily Mirror IconSportFootballLiverpool FCLuis Suarez may have left Liverpool more than ten years ago, but one former Red still looks back at the Uruguayan's brilliance and dedication at AnfieldFormer Liverpool defender Martin Kelly has admitted he had never seen a first-team player train with the reserves the day after a match until Luis Suarez turned up every Sunday morning. Over the course of four years, Suarez entrenched himself as one of the best forwards club's history.Whether it was unforgettable goals, amazing assists or the occasional game when he seemingly dragged Brendan Rodgers' side to victory on his own, Liverpool fans and players will never forget him.But it's not just his brilliance on matchdays which has stuck with Kelly.
The way I was brought up was: 'Don’t take a step back.’ At one point, we squared up to each other and he was laughing at me."He was saying: 'Kelly, you’re crazy.’ I said: ‘Just stop kicking me. Why are you kicking me?’ He was always so game — that will to win.”Suarez's tenaciousness, even in Sunday training sessions, which were mainly made up of unused substitutes and reserve players, demonstrated his immense will to win every game and drill he took part in.
Suarez moved to Barcelona in the summer of 2014 for £75million.In his debut campaign, he hammered 26 goals and 25 assists in 46 appearances as the Catalans won the Champions League, La Liga and the Copa Del Rey.
